out of EBCs

[feelinfroggie]

used the last of my ECBs last night ob cold medication--because we dont usually get colds or have sinus issues i dont buy these. well dang--my DD has been suffering all week with sinus, and i am at the start of a cold. So much for us not getting sick
So need some ideas to build up my ECBs again--i am doing the dry idea--I have 2 IP Qs for $2 off each-making it 99 cents with $2 ECBs coming back to me. i think i will also do the colgate-unless that was just a 2 day thingy.
Any help would be appreciated-i can usually do this, but this cold is making my brain fuzzy and it hurts so bad i cant hardly think

I did the Pantene deal this week. You buy a shampoo and conditioner, use a $1 off coupon for each, plus use the coupon for the free Pantene styling product and get 2 ECB's for the effort. I think you can do this deal 5 times. The shampoo works out to $1.67/bottle and the styling product is FREE. I think the Colgate is all week, but the Irish Spring body wash was just 3 days.

I was totally out of ECB's too, but I went, spent $22 and now I have $12+ in ECB's. Not too bad to get back in the game really.

I was out too and did the dove deal, buy $15 worth, get $5 ecb's, cuz I love dove!!. I got a $4/$20 in my inbox and was also going to add the band-aids to take my total above $20 and get $3 more in ecb's, but DH needed some of his favorite toothpaste (pronamel) and it was on sale for $4.49, couldn't pass that up! So, I have $5 for next week!

Hope ya feel better. Off-topic, but I work at a school and a lady there told me to use Bee Propolis at the first sign of a cold...works like a charm. Comes in gel caps that you can break apart and add a little to applesauce for the kiddos. It has worked great for me every time, you can get it at a health food store.

OK, back on topic!

thanks for the advice on both the ECBs and the cold--went to CVS and talked to our awesome pharmacist---he gave me 2 things to take--and this morning feeling much better

I missed seeing the pronamel in the CVS ad. Is this a better deal than Walgreens stacking q's?

feelinfroggie - do you have a $4/$20 coupon? If so, this is what I'm planning for Sunday morning:

Crest: $3.49
Quattro or Intuition Plus: $8.99
Dry Idea: $7.99
TOTAL: 20.47

- $4 (razor coupon)
- $1 (crest q)
- $2 (Dry Idea IP q)
- $4 (CVS Q off $20 purchase)

Makes the total $9.47, which I'll pay in ECBs, but I'll get $11.49 back in ECBs. Maybe a good way to start again, you'll always have to put some money in to get the ECBs rolling.
