I know the cashier wanted to cry when she saw me walk in (I seem to get the same one everytime), and I know she wanted to cry when I left, but the stinkin' register didn't want to take any of my coupons. NOT ANY!! The manager had to override every single one. So when they wouldn't take the $2 off any Revlon color cosmetics coupon for the fingernail polishes I didn't argue.
I am not a pro yet. I seem to run low on ECB's every 3-4 visits, especially if I buy GoodNites or Diapers, but a lot of the blogs I visit, they seem to never run out of ECB's. I'll be there one day, but hey, I am not going to complain.

Your blog ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm still working on the CVS thing - I seem to pay a little more than I want to each visit but am still very pleased with all the free and cheap items. I just never seem to have more that 5-7 dollars in ECB's. Any tips?
Thanks!
