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.
Our Rite Aid break is over . . . !!! This is going to be a busy week.

I will end up paying a total of $4.27 OOP for products with a sale value of $131.27 (that is, if I didn't have any +UP Rewards from previous weeks . . . which, of course, I do). I will have earned $22.99 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 $10 in +UP Rewards left for other purchases this week or next. That's like MAKEing $28.72 on products with a sale value of $131.27!
Now if you have a lot of Nivea coupons . . . .

- $40 +UP Reward wyb $100 worth of Nivea items = $7.75/40
Total before coupons $100.54
- $3/$15 RA survey coupon (Let's assume that you still have 1.)
- $52 (in MFC and RA coupons)
Total OOP $45.54 (Remember to use previously earned +UP Rewards to lower your OOP costs.)
earn $40 +UP Reward from Nivea
(like everything in this scenario COSTing $5.54!)
(This is just an example, but obviously this purchase could be broken down a couple of times with a few more $3/$15 coupons and this would turn into a money maker. And of course for those with more +UPs than they know what to do with, there is no need to acutally pay $40 anything OOP!)
