CVS
Total out-of-pocket: $0.85
I had $34 in ECB that were expiring that day. I had already accidentally let an additional $10 expire. Since I had no time to figure out some shopping deals, I went in and spent it on whatever. We like stocking up on toilet paper when we can, so that's what I bought. As well as a couple packs of pens and chapstick. I didn't get any ECB back this time for what I bought. BUT I did get $10 ECB back for doing an online survey last month, so that was nice!
KROGER: $0.00
3 six-packs of VIVA paper towels, on sale for $5.99, I had three $0.35 coupons that tripled, taking $1.05 off of each pack. In the end, each pack was $4.94 (or $0.82 per roll). That's pretty good for VIVA paper towels. I'd imagine they sometimes have better deals for VIVA, but I love VIVA and wanted to buy some.
I bought them, plus the newspapers with my gift card. I might have seemed insane at the time with buying all the Robitussin at Walgreen's, but I got a gift card out of it and now free stuff at Krogers.
WALGREEN'S: 0.00
I bought the toothbrush in the above photo at Walgreen's. I used my gift card again, so it was free. I think it was $4.94 or something, and I got $4.50 back in RR. It's an unadvertised deal. It is an Oral-B CrossAction Vitalizer that gives RR back.
You may wonder, "Why go to Walgreen's to buy one toothbrush?" (or you might not wonder that at all) I was going to buy some of the free scrubbing bubble stuff and more of those toothbrushes as well, but they were mostly out of stuff. Plus, TS was teething and very fussy. I was hungry...and I decided home seemed like a very appealing place to be. So, we went home.
It's fun to get out of the house and go shopping with the kids on their GOOD days, but when it's a bad day, it's sooo very not fun. TS screamed through Kroger. He's such an easy going guy most of the time. I'm pretty sure the 2-year molars are on their way. Teething & shopping don't go well together.
Why is my entry so long?

It's so long because your life is a meaningless, empty wasteland and what else would you be doing! Ha, ha, ha!!
Long entries are fine, although I didn't think that was a long entry.
I'm the same way with VIVA paper towels. They are my favorite and you're right, that's a good deal for paper towels, especially for such good ones.
Good deals! I'm glad you were able to get some shopping done.
