Well, my plan changed when I got to the store because my store was out (of course) of a lot of the Olay products. I ended up getting a cleanser for 9.99, a lotion for 21.99 and an eye cream for 21.99. So total before coupons and tax was 53.97. I used three $1 coupons from the newspaper and the $10/$50. I received $10 ECB and will submit for the $20 rebate. So actual cost was $10.97 (a little higher than I originally planned, but I was still happy with it since I've been waiting for a decent deal on these), but OOP was $40.97 (some of which was paid with ECBs).
I had originally planned to stick with the 9.99 and 12.99 products so that I would have more items and could use more coupons, so if your store has a better stock, you could do that. There was at least one item that was tagged at 7.99, but I don't remember what it was because my store was out of it.
As far as a really low OOP, I don't see a good way to do that unless you have some ECBs you can roll--because you do have to wait for the $20 rebate.
