(2) Bags candy corn, $1.29 earn $1.29 ECB = FREE
(2) Lite Sticks (for trick-or-treating), $.99 earn $.99 ECB = FREE

I split the order into three different transaction so I could one, use the ECBs from the Johnson's deal to pay for the some of the toothbrushes and two, so I wouldn't have a giant ECB for $19.95 print for the toothbrushes.

Now because I did seperate transactions using ECBs from one to pay for another, it gets kind of messy so with my best guess it breaks down like this:
ECBs spent - $36.76
ECBs earned - $38.49
Total spent on gift card - $7.22


Finally Walgreens:

Pert Plus Shampoo 13.5 oz, $3.49
Used, $1.50 MQ, recent insert and combined with $2.50 Walgreens instant value coupon
= $.50 overage! (Walgreens will apply overage to other items in your order so make sure you have enough to cover it, they won't give cash back and it will mess up your order if you are negative)
Rinse and repeat until your coupons run out.
