Total inc tax: $45.36
EB used: $41.98
OOP (Cash/gift card): $3.38
EB gained: 5(skippy/ragu/mayo)+5(Dove)+2(Herbal Essence)+10(perfume)+1(green bag tag)+5(ethnic hair care) = $28
Net cost: $17.36 (28-41.98-3.38)

I bought $39.94 of CVS Beauty Club products, so I will get $3.99 back. Even still, this was one of the biggest setbacks of ExtraBucks I've had at CVS in a LONG time, since I got some grocery items.  Hopefully there will be some money-makers in the next few weeks to recover.

Overall, the regular retail value of all of the items was $195.52.  I paid $5.59 out of my pocket.  While I had a large net cost at CVS (and a small one at Target), I also had a large net profit at Walgreens.  For the two days, my total net cost is $3.57 (17.36 + 0.63 - $14.42).
