I started out with $17 ECBs, which is a LOT for me! I hit the diaper/wipes deal yesterday. That really helped! I don’t usually have this many ECBs to work with!

I had my favorite cashier at my local store, and I had a negative balance in Transaction #2. I hate to waste ECBs! So I bought two of the individually wrapped buckeye candies at the register. The cashier suggested them and told me that she liked them. So I kept one and gave one to her. She’d had some cranky customers today, and she really appreciated it. It was fun for me too!
