I have a Buy 36 items/Get $10 Bonus on Ibotta which runs from 1/7-1/18/21. I had 9 offers completed going into this week so 27 more to go to get that Bonus. Spending OOP at this point was the $3.59 OOP at Weis on Friday(plus $7.34 in reg. Ibotta rebates there as well as $23 in rebates from Rite-Aid--Nivea and Nature Made products for which I spent Bonus Cash).
I am at $33.34 earned on Ibotta($30.34 reg. rebates and $3 Weekend Warrior Bonus)since 1/7/21.
Had to spend/roll the ECBs this week. Here's what I bought........
2 x Nivea Breathable lotion=$16.98
1 x Poise active pads on sale=$5.99
2 x Pop-arazzi nail polish=$5.00
SubTotal.......$27.97
Coupons Used
1 x $5 off $25 purchase CVSQ=$5.00
2 x $3/1 Nivea lotion IPQ=$6.00
1 x $1 off $5 Nivea CRTQ=$1.00
1 x $3/1 Poise DigitalQ=$3.00
Coupon Total......$15.00
$27.97-$15=$12.97+.15¢ tax=$13.12
Paid with $13 in ECBs and .12¢ cash OOP.
I earned back $11 in new ECBs($5 wyb2 Nivea, $2 Poise, $4 Pop-arazzi)so spent the ECBs down by $2.
The Nivea lotion had a $2 Ibotta rebate so 2 bottles earned me $4.00 back there and upped my completed offers to 10 so 26 more to reach the $10 Fresh Start Bonus. Total OOP now at $7.46 and $37.34 earned on Ibotta.
I went to Rite-Aid near that CVS and bought this using a $10 off $40 Q.......
2 x Working Hands lotion(at Hubs' request)$7.29=$14.38
2 x Big Win Coffee Creamer(at Hubs' request)$3.49=$6.98
2 x Nivea men's body wash on sale=$10.00
3 x Nivea sensitive shave gel 75% off=$3.72
2 x Nivea stubble balm 75% off=$3.98
4 x Carol's Daughter leave-in Conditioner $3.59=$14.36
2 x Baby Ruth on sale=$1.00
SubTotal.....$54.42*
I used a $10 off $40 R-A Q and a $3/2 Nivea body wash ManQ so it was $41.42+ $2.12 sales tax=$43.54 paid for with Bonus Cash.
Except my total shouldn't have been so high. My 20% Wellness discount didn't come off the regular priced items!*the creamer, lotion and conditioner*
Very strange.....those 3 items should have come to $28.57 instead of $35.72 so a difference of $7.15 +.58¢=$7.73.
I noticed the issue and brought it to the attention of the cashier and manager and I got a cash refund of $7.73 which went into my refunds/post coupon envelope when I got home.......
I earned back $20 in new BC($3 wyb2 Working Hands, 2 x $3 Nivea men's, 2 x $5 Carol's Daughter items, $1wyb2 candy bars).
The Nivea face items earned me back $9.80 on Ibotta and upped my item count by 2 so 24 items left to buy and $47.14 earned on Ibotta since 1/7/21.
Next day I hit Walmart as I knew I could knocked out a lot of Ibotta rebates(and stack a few with ShopKick too).
That trip didn't go as planned exactly(and I goofed up a bit)but here is what I bought and what rebates it all qualified for......
1 x Breakstone cottage cheese*not pictured*=.75¢
2 x Good Thins=$2.56
2 x Good Thins second rebate=$1.50
1 x big All detergent(my goof)=$2.00
1 x Scorchin hot Pringles=.75¢
1 x big jug of Purex=$1.50
2 x big bags of Hall's cough drops=$3.00
2 x Oreo thins(big packs)=$2.00
1 x Truvia=$1.50
2 x Renuzit cones=.97¢
2 x Swanson broth=$1.00
1x Yes! soup=$1.98
1 x Vaseline Smooth Almond lotion=$1.00
1 x Listerine Flosser=$2.00
1 x Listerine mouth rinse(small bottle)=$1.00
1 x Noxema cream=$1.00
1 x Rolaids antacid=$1.00
1 x Zebra gel pens pack=$1.00
1 x Bic ladies razor*No Ibotta rebate*
1 x Vaseline jelly w/cocoa butter=$1.00
1 x Ducolax=$1.00
1 x St. Ives face scrub=$1.00
1 x any brand acne product(I guess the St. Ives qualified for that)=.10¢
All these regular Ibotta rebates came to $29.61cash back. There were 22 separate rebates bringing my total up to 34 rebates.
I also earned a .50¢ Listerine Bonus(2 different Listerine items bought)and a .50¢ Level 1 Bonus so another $1 in Bonuses earned.
The big jug of All was a goof. The Clean Care white All qualified for 2 rebates totaling $4.50 plus had a $2 All Bonus it would have put you over for by buying this 1 All product so after rebates it was almost free(or free if you also had a coupon for it). My jug wasn't Clean Care so I only got a $2.00 rebate on it. It is what it is.
I also had a $3/2 Noxemz/St. Ives/Pond's/Simple digitalQ clipped on Coupon dotcom but it disappeared from my account before I got home with those items to scan the receipt in. meh.
I could have bought the small packs of Oreo thins but they didn't have the mint variety in that size so I had to spend more on those. Between these issues and the All goof my total is $9+ higher than I had figured.
I bought the Bic razor because after the ManuQ it was a .78¢ moneymaker that I could put toward what I spent on everything else.
The only freebie above was the Yes! soup(an actual .20¢ moneymaker since it was $1.78 and not the $1.98 Ibotta gave back for buying it). This store didn't carry or was out of some other freebies so I had to punt.
After coupons used and $30 in free Walmart gift cards I spent $38.33 OOP on all this at Walmart.
Total spending OOP toward the Ibotta Bonus is now $45.79 since 1/7/21 and $77.75 earned back in rebates.
I finished off the Fresh Start Bonus at Rite-Aid yesterday buying this stuff.......
2 x Mybite vitamins(2 different types w/separate rebates)BOGOFree=$10.99
2 x Eucerin Ezcema lotion BOGO50%=$19.48
2 x Colgate advanced toothpaste on sale=$7.98
1 x Big Win tea bags 20% off=$2.63
2 x Simple micellar water clearance=$1.74
2 x Baby Ruth on sale=$1.00
SubTotal.......$43.82
Coupons Used
1 x $10 wys $40 R-AQ=$10.00
2 x $1/1 Mybites peelieQ=$2.00
2 x $3.50/1 Eucerin item IPQ=$7.00
2 x $2/1 In-Ad Colgate RAQ=$4.00
1 x $3/2 Colgate L2CQ=$3.00
Coupon Total.......$26.00
$43.82-$26=$17.82+.49¢ tax=$18.31 paid for with Bonus Cash.
I also earned back $9 in new BC(2 x $3 Eucerin, 2 x $1 Colgate, $1 Candy Bars).
The Mybites gave me the last 2 items toward my 36 offers on Ibotta so I earned the $10 Bonus plus th $2 in regular rebates. 8-)
Total spent OOP(not counting any Bonus Cash "spent down")is now $45.79 and Ibotta cash back for regular offers and various bonuses earned on is $89.75.
I also earned 2150 in Kicks on ShopKick for the 4 Vaseline, St. Ives and Noxema items which comes out to $8.60 toward more Walmart gift cards.
I earned $8 in rebates on Checkout51 as well.
I also earned 293 points by scanning my receipts into Fetch Rewards so that's over .20¢ back there too.
Plus I picked up a Larabar at Rite-Aid as there is a Coupons dotcom freebie offer until Saturday. Submit your receipt and get $2.29 back in a rebate, even if you spend less than that on your bar.
If your R-A carries these they are on sale this week for 99¢ each.
I found one at R-A with a .50¢ freshness sticker so it cost me .49¢(in Bonus Cash, not cash OOP). I've already gotten my $2.29 refund on it.
Recapping--
* Total OOP since 1/7........$45.79
