Rite Aid Deal and Transaction Scenarios 11/14 to 11/20

 

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

Print out EXTRA $5 off any purchase of $25 or more coupons HERE (exp. 12/31/10). Coupons will be blurry at first. Give them a minute to finish loading.

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.

My parents spent the week visiting with us (they're missionaries in Guatemala). And my sister and her husband came up for a few days too (from Kentucky). It was SO nice to catch up with family. So . . . I kind of skipped my Rite Aid shopping this week. I did make it to RA to pick up some cat food and cat litter. And of course, I used my rainchecks to add FREE stuff to my purchase in order to get the needed items FREE too.  : )

I've only gotten 1 scenario put together at the moment. I'll be putting more together after my parents get on the plane tomorrow.

I received two more envelopes with +UP Rewards in them from RA this week. RA has continued to impress me with their Wellness+ customer service. Also, if you have a raincheck for an item with a SCR (single check rebate), don't forget to call the SCR customer service number. They will verify your purchase and mail you a check right away for the amount of that SCR. (This will not affect your usual SCR check).


Purchase #1 (This scenario uses the first option on any of the either/or items. If you buy the other option, you may need to adjust your totals.)

2 General Mills cereal (Original Cheerios) (pg. 1) $4/2

OR if you and your husband/wife both have a VV account and the registers at your RA allow you to use two like VV coupons from separate accounts (I know my RA does), you could do the following scenario for a moneymaker!

- $0.75/1 Colgate Toothpaste, exp. 11-20-10 (SS 10/31/10) = $6.24/3

Total before coupons at least $25.97

earn $1 +UP Reward from General Mills
earn $1 +UP Reward from Betty Crocker
earn $2 +UP Reward from Colgate
earn $3 +UP Reward from Huggies
(like MAKEing $5.77 on this scenario)


So far, I will have paid a total of $1.23 OOP for products with a sale value of $25+ (that is if I didn't have any +UP Rewards from previous weeks . . . which, of course, I did). 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 have $7 in +UP Rewards left for other purchases this week or next. That's like MAKEing $5.77 on products with a sale value of $25+!
