Default Need help in figuring my trip(s) to CVS!

I already posted my conundrum for WAGS; next up is my trip to CVS. I hope it doesn't seem as though I don't want to do any of the work I am still trying to figure out the most efficient way to use RR's and ECB's. So here is a list of items I would like to purchase at CVS and my coupons are in ().

*Roc Skin Care $3 off with card (I have 3 coupons $3/1; LOVE this stuff!)
*Gillette Body Wash $4; buy $15 worth, get $5ECB (I have 4 coupons for $2/1)
*Nabisco crackers 5/$10, get $3ECB (I have 5 coupons for $1/1)
*Nivea products buy $10 worth, get $5ECB (I have two coupons, $3/1 and $2/1)
*Reach toothbrush 2-pack $3.99, get $2ECB (I have BOGO free coupons)

I have $20ECB from last week to play with and would like to have help in figuring out the best way to "maximize" my ECB's this week. I realize that unlike WAGS, CVS keeps track of ECB's and you are only allowed what is specified and in the case everything above, it's 1 per household. Thanks in advance!!

We need a break down of your ECBs in order to do best transactions.

I think I figured out to buy everything but the Roc lotion on my first visit and us my $20 ECB to pay for it. My OOP should be around $5-7. Then use the ECB's I get from that transaction ($15) to buy my Roc lotion. Of course, there will be a learning curve with this ECB stuff (not as bad as WAGS, I'm discovering!)

I bought 20 coupons good for $1/1 Nabisco products when my Smith's grocery store started their big two week sale event (10 mix and match, get $5 back). I paid .99 plus .99 s/h on Ebay. It was definitely a smart move because it's more than paid me back! That's where I got my coupons from.
