* Rite Aid Store Trips 7/1/10

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

I did several transactions at 2 Rite Aid’s today.  Here’s the rundown of my purchases.  I did mess up a couple coupons, but by the time I realized my mistake, I already had kids loaded and buckled in the car, so it wasn’t worth it to go back in right then.  I may have them try to fix it later, but even with my mistake it was a good deal.

* My week at Rite Aid

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

I apologize in advance if anyone is offended by a little bit of bragging- but I had an awesome week at Rite Aid! I am really loving the +UP program!  Any money out of pocket this week was tax.  Everything else was totally paid with coupons & +UP Rewards!  And I really love that we have BOTH +UP Rewards AND Single Check Rebates available to us.  I’ve been very jealous of those people that have Walgreens & CVS in their area, but right now I’m really loving Rite Aid!

Before coupons & tax:  $39.79
After coupons (including +UP rewards as payment) & tax:  $3.08 OOP

18 items = about $.17 per item
Still have $21 +UP Rewards to spend in the future

The items I got this week for that amount:

  • 7 Motrin PM
  • 4 Colgate Total
  • 4 Puffs with Lotion
  • 2 Butterfinger bars
  • 1 Gallon Milk
