Revisiting the Rite Aid Deals

Being sick must have really messed with my thinking. I was under the impression that this was not a very good week at Rite Aid . . .  but I was wrong.  (And happily so!)  So, if you haven't yet been to Rite Aid, make plans to go.

I've reworked my transaction scenarios for this week below:


Purchase #1

2 Motrin PM (pg. 2) 20 ct. $3/1 = $6/2

I will receive a MIR coupon for a FREE Aveeno lotion. And I will have $8 in +UP Rewards left for other purchases this week or next. That's like MAKEing $15.26 on products with a sale value of $75.31!
