    Default I'm so excited - can't believe my totals!!!!

    I know I posted in each store my trip but I'm so excited about my combined total I wanted to post it also.

    Purchased 26 items between the 3 wonderful stores.
    Shelf price total $119.68
    Total cash OOP today $35.60
    BUT
    Total OOP after rebates $4.79
    (I didn't count ECB since not sure how to tally them *used 12 but got 12 back* - any advise on that would be great)

    I can not believe it!! I'm really seeing the light now! Can't wait to see what I can get next!!

    You should show us your items putchased. It makes it an even bigger celebration and others might learn from you that way.

    Default Totals Spreadsheet

    Isn't it wonderful to sit down and see what we are really saving?!! I created a spreadsheet where I put in all my purchases at CVS, Walgreens, Publix and Winn Dixie including tax, coupons used, RR or ECB's used and received, ESR rebates claimed and any actual cash out of pocket. I total what I put out (RR, ECB, OOP used) and subtract everything I received (RR, ECB, ESR, MIR, etc). I just started doing this beginning with last week's deals and I have already purchased $390.12 in products and only spent a total of $19.42. Pretty awesome, right?

    Default Spreadsheet

    I made an Excel spreadsheet that shows each trip's totals as well as year to date totals.
