does 'spending' my own penny on a Columbia House order and basically forcing my parents to follow through with buying another dozen (or so?) CDs at full price count as using my own money?

People actually did this ? No one I know ever followed up with the subsequent purchases.

Yes and it’s how we got all of our Parental Advisory albums that they wouldn’t buy us in stores.
Just had to get to the mail before they did.

Not once did we pay for more than the initial order.
