Nabisco Keep the Jingle in Your Holiday $10 wyb 10

I spent out of pocket:

$12.50 Olay Quench ($11.99 drugstore.com +$.49 RA)
 $.05 Olay Regenerist ($tax Manu and Store Coupons)
-$5.50 Glade Candles ($1.75 tax oop-$7.25)
 $16 Planters/NabiscoKraft ($30-5q-$25cats receive $16 catalinas)
=$23.05
-$59.48 MIR
=$36.43 Profit and $100+ in Merchandise

How I calculate my profits I take the actual amount I spent out of pocket+ (catalinas spent-catalinas earned) could be ECBs or RRs in other instances then substract my Rebate or Cash going back into my pocket.  To get accurate figures one must count the rewards spent too because usually at one time or another real cash was spent. I hope that made sense. It's easier to show with ECBs or RRs.
