On this trip I paid $0.00 out of pocket for $16.76 worth of items. My goal for 2011 is to not spend any money out of pocket, while using coupons and ECBs to get tons of items at CVS, with an initial gift card of $50. I earned $0.50 ECB by scanning my card when I entered the store and applied that to my purchase today.
