My First Rebate Check!

My first rebate check!
This morning I awoke not feeling very well...that is until I noticed that the mail had run early. I was so excited I just had to post this!
The wild part about this rebate check is...the products that I received the check for didn't cost me $3.00 to buy. SC Johnson has a rebate program which will allow you to receive $5.00 "when you buy" (wyb) three of their participating products.
I happened to find that Fantastik was on sale as a "buy one get one" BOGO at my local store.
Scenario:
$2.99 (normal price ea)
- $1.49 (BOGO)
- $0.50 (MFQ)
- $0.50 (Store Dbl policy)
$0.49 FINAL PRICE
I needed to buy three participating products. I buy three papers, which allowed me to buy three and save a bundle!
My total receipt after tax? $2.68 After rebate, I MADE $2.32
