-    $  3.00: Three $1/1 Yo+ from 1/3 insert (these are definitely double-able, the printables say Do Not Double so it depends on the cashier)
-    $ 11.00:  Eleven $1/1 printables from here, here & here (you can print 2 of each per computer so you'll need 2 computers)

Get a $5 catalina toward your next purchase
This is the cheapest out of pocket I've seen to get started, then you can roll this $5 toward your next purchase, etc.

Here's a great scenario from Frugal Living NW that I did for my 2nd transaction & it worked perfectly.

Buy 5 Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks = $9.40
Buy 5 Nature Valley Nut Clusters = $12.50
Use (2) $1/2 Fruit Snack coupons (-$2) (my Albertsons had tons of $1/2 peelies on these products)
Use (1) $.50/1 Fruit Snack coupon (-$.50)
Use (5) $1/1 Nut Clusters coupons (-$5)
Use 3 Albertsons doubles (-$3)
Use $5 catalina from first transaction

Pay $6.40, Get the following catalinas:

$5 -- GM Promo
$3.50 -- Fruit Snacks (Buy 5, Get $3.50)
$3.50 -- Nut Clusters (Buy 5, Get $3.50)
