My total cost OOP (out of pocket) - $0.01 + tax
This week is a great example of why I often do multiple transactions to have the lowest OOP expense. If I had done only one transaction, I would have spent $9.99 + tax OOP and had $13.99 ECB's left. Instead, I spent $0.01 + tax and have $8.00 ECB's left. More ECB's, yes, but also more money spent.
