My first thought was "buy something that generates another ECB" but that's hard sometimes....I struggled to have $20 after coupons so I could use my $20 ECB from the Ultra Mini last month. I ended up buying bottled water and a shoe organizer, since we needed both.
It's good to remember that I will buy the ECB-generating stuff anyway, so it doesn't matter which item I pay "oop" for...I'm saving money, no matter what.

Postage stamps! That is my latest favorite thing to buy if I don't know what to use them on. I also love to buy bottled water because we run through it like, well....water . I also use them on chips/pop and junk that I hate to spend money on at the grocery store and that I never have coupons for. Oh and birthday cards/gift bags, etc.
Oh yeah...I forgot...batteries

Does CVS charge extra on postage stamps or is it the price you'd pay at P.O.? If they do charge extra, how much? This is a great idea for using all those EB's. Thanks

WOW I didn't know you could buy postage stamps with ECB- thanks for the great tip

Stamps are on the excluded list for ECB usage.

Boy, do I hear ya! Wish they would have a good sale on those storage cases and tubs. Staples has nice big tubs for $3.99. I get the (Sterlite?) cases that CVS sells for $5.99 that are like filing boxes with handles. (Staples has for $4.13 ) I use them to store my coupon inserts, inside of hanging file holders and manila folders. Its a big help. They arent too big, so I have to get more, but if were larger, would be too heavy for me.
OK, having a moment, BTS?? Nevermind. Guess its back to school.
thanx, anointed!
