So total out of our pocket will be $39.21 and we get two pull-ups and 2 packs of diapers for my baby and lots of wipes! That's less than Walmart for diapers and wipes)ever for us and we get all of that other stuff too! This is before tax. Also in transaction 3 I do not know how much the ob tampons are, so it will be about $6.00- $8.00 more if we get those and we will have another $5 ebc to use, if we want. I found some more toothpaste coupons so I am getting two more of those, hey they are FREE! So, do you think I have done good for the first time? It is some work and we have to do more than one transaction to get the best deals because of the $2 off a $10 order and then getting enough EBC to get some things free, like in transaction 4 we basically get a pack of diapers for free. It's worth it for me for those alone! I really hope they have all of the stuff we want, so this will work but we will see.... We have been spending about $80-$100 for household products and diapers,pull ups/wipes for kids every two weeks. That is buying generic, we get name brand here! So, I am hoping I can get that down at least a little by doing this!
