Rite Aid Deal and Transaction Scenarios 3/13 to 3/19

 

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.


Well, this week was another abnormal week for posts. It is my hope that everything will be getting back to normal soon. Please bear with me. There are a lot of things going on at my house right now.

If I roll the +UP Rewards from one transaction to the next, I will end up paying a total of $1.48 OOP for products with a sale value of $39.48 (that is, if I didn't have any +UP Rewards from previous weeks . . . which, of course, I do). I will have earned $2 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 $6 in +UP Rewards left for other purchases this week or next. That's like MAKEing $6.52 on products with a sale value of $39.48!
