If not, just use 3.) = $0.50 or FREE and make $1 - $1 OYNSO wyb 4 = FREE and make $0.50 to $2 (Other coupons that can be used are $0.75/1 from All You November '09, $0.50/3 from 11/1/SS or 12/6/SS) OR (If you have already used your Kleenex coupons: Marcal Small Steps facial tissue is $1.33/1 - $1/1 (11/15/SS) = $0.33/1)
