Rite Aid Deal and Transaction Scenarios 12/19 to 12/25

 

New to Rite Aid shopping? Visit the RiteAid page for more information.

All my scenarios will reflect my personal goal to either make money or at least not to have spent any at the end of the month - after I get my Single Check Rebate, Rite Aid gift cards, and/or MIR checks.

**Unless otherwise indicated, there is a limit of one single check rebate per item.

earn $1 +UP Reward from Oral-B
earn (2) $3 +UP Reward from Motrin
(like MAKEing $7.79 on this scenario) (w/ 20% discount MAKE $10.05)


So far, this week does not look quite as good as last week to me . . . but I may yet change my mind. I'm keeping my eyes open.


If I roll the +UP Rewards from one transaction to the next (only have 1 transaction this week - take a break, it's Christmas time), I will end up paying a total of $4.21 OOP for products with a sale value of $28.21 (that is if I didn't have any +UP Rewards from previous weeks . . . which, of course, I do). I will have earned $0 in SCRs which will get sent to me in check form (that I can cash at the bank) at the end of the month. I will receive a MIR check for $0. And I will have $12 in +UP Rewards left for other purchases this week or next. That's like MAKEing $7.79 on products with a sale value of $28.21!
