There aren't any real money-makers this week that I can see, but there are quite a few things that are generating ECBs that I need/want, so I was able to come up with 5 transactions to work them all in and spend as little oop as possible. If you do all five transactions, you'll be getting more than $105 worth of merchandise, and you'll only be spending $1.41 after ECBs! LOVE that!!
