How should I break down the transactions to get the least out of pocket costs?
@Jenny,
Assuming you are starting with 0 ECBs, I would do something like this:
Transaction 1:
Schick Hydro 3 or Hydro 5 – $8.00
* $4.00 ECBs
* $4/1 Schick Hydro Razor SS 6/12
Total OOP would be $4.00
Transaction 2:
Bayer Advanced Aspirin 20ct -$3.00
* $1.00 ECB
* $2/1 Bayer Advanced Product SS 6/12
Motrin PM 20ct – $4.00
* $3.00 ECBs
* $1/1 Motrin RP 6/12
Total OOP is $0.00 since you used 4 ECBs from previous transaction
Transaction 3:
Zyrtec Allergy 24-hr tablets 5ct. – $5.99
* $5.99 ECBs
* $2/1 Zyrtec Product @ Zyrtec website offers
Total OOP is $0.00
Final Assessment of Transaction:
Assuming you have 0 ECBs to start with you would pay $4.00 OOP for all three transactions and end up with $5.99 in ECBs. This is a $1.99 money maker total.
