Check below for scenario details.

My Rite Aid Scenario 8-29-10

Whew! What a morning! My original plan was to shop at the Cleona store but we found that they didn't have any Gain dishwashing liquid. EEK! We drove all the way to Palmyra and found it! However, we decided to travel back to Cleona to shop this week.

Palmyra-

I earned the following +UP rewards-

I will also submit for $1.99 Single Check Rebate for the Nivea chapstick and $1.00 for the Always pads. By purchasing the Listerine, I have also "spent" enough money to earn the $10 giftcard when you purchase $25 in Oral Care products. Therefore, my total profit for this transaction is $16.49 with the gift card! Wahooo! :0)

Total spending at Rite Aid if I hadn't used any coupons or my Wellness + Card= $492.04

Total out of pocket paid at the register- $5.91

Total Single Check rebate for July and August thus far- $23.66

Rite Aid paid me $23.74 to buy $492.04 of their product! I love it! :)

More K-Mart Doubles and Victoria's Secret Couponing!

I made another K-Mart run this evening. Some of the deals were a repeat because I had multiple coupons. Here are the deals that were new to this shopping trip...

Edge Shave Gel- $1.99

-$1.00 coupon (this week's paper)

=Free when doubled

Rolaids Tablets- $1.99

-$1.00 coupon (stockpile)

=Free when doubled

I have NEVER blogged about Victoria's Secret deals and I'm sure some of you are probably laughing that I would take a picture of underwear and post it on this blog. However, my trip to Victoria's Secret tonight is proof that coupon deals can happen in more than drug stores (lol). In the bottom corner of the picture you will see a coupon that was maybe mailed to your house recently. Typically, these coupons are for a free pair of underwear. However, this time the coupon was for a free pair of underwear AND $10 off any $10 purchase or more. So, of course, I searched the store for items costing only $10. Near the register I found these small bottles of their perfumes for $10 each. The friendly cashier rang everything through and I was prepared to pay only tax. To my surprise the total showed $0.00 on the screen and in my head I squealed! Therefore, I got a pair of underwear and a bottle of perfume for NOTHING! Victoria's Secret was so kind to send one to our house in my husband's name. Seeing as he won't be needing any ladies underwear I intend to visit again to get a free bottle of perfume and underwear. (NOTE: I did also spy mini mint containers that were priced 2 for $5. I bet you could do 4 mint containers for free as well!!)

Kmart Double Coupons 8-10-10

K-Mart is doubling coupons up to $1.00 value this week (a $1.00 coupon would double to $2.00). Certainly not as good as their $2.00 doubles in the past but I was able to find some pretty good deals. Remember to use your Shop Your Way rewards card and they will only double up to 5 coupons per day. Here is what I did...

Ban deodorant- $2.00

-$1.00 coupon from last week's paper

=Free when doubled

Oral B toothbrush- $1.99

-$1.00 coupon from last week's paper

=Free when doubled

Reach floss- $1.79

-$1.00 coupon from my stockpile and printable from www.reachbrand.com

=Free when doubled

Davids sunflower seeds- 2 for $2.00

-$1.00 off of 2 coupon from www.daviddollars.com

=Free when doubled

Dentek flossers-$2.00

-$1.00 coupon from www.dentek.com

=Free when doubled

I ended up only paying $0.30 for tax :)

My Rite Aid Trip 8-8-10

I know I am posting my deals and scenario way later than normal but the Rite Aid deals this week are less than stellar. In fact, they are quite a bore. I did manage to put together this scenario...

Schick Razor- $5.99

-$5.00 coupon (this Sunday's paper)

Schick Shave gel- $1.99

-$1.00 coupon (this Sunday's paper)

Ensure- $6.99

-$1.00 Video value coupon (this month)

-$1.50 man coupon printable from www.ensure.com

Soy Joy Bars- 5 for $4

-$1.00 video value coupon (this month

Dry Idea- 4 on BOGO sale

-2 BOGO coupons (red plum insert from late July)

My total before savings was $46.57

My total minus the $5 off of $25 coupon and $4 in +UP rewards was $0.11. I put this balance on my gift card.

My Rite Aid Trip 8-1-10

Pictured is what I purchased-

Pampers Diapers-$8.99

-$2.00 Single Check Rebate

-$2.00 +UP reward

-$3.00 coupon (I had this one in my stockpile but there is a $1.50 in this week's paper)

=$1.99

Pampers Wipes- $2.79 (with my 20% discount)

-Buy any pampers diapers get a free wipes coupon from this Sunday's paper

=Free

Johnson's Baby lotion-$3.99

-$2.00 +UP reward

-$1.00 coupon www.johnsonsbaby.com

=$0.99

LA Looks gel-$1.99

-$1.00 coupon (this Sunday's paper)

-$0.99 Single Check Rebate

=Free

Herbal Essensces 2 for $5

-BOGO coupon (this Sunday's paper)

-$2.00 +UP reward

=$0.50 for 2

Crest toothpaste- $2.49

-$1.00 coupon (this Sunday's paper)

-$1.50 +UP reward

=$0.01 profit

I used a $5 off of $25 coupon and $8 of my +UP rewards from previous weeks.

Total before savings- $35.87

Total after savings- $0.56 (I put this on my gift card)

I will receive $2.99 worth of Single check rebates for the Pampers and the LA Looks gel. I also received the following +UP Rewards-

$2.00 for the Pampers

$2.00 for the Herbal Essences

$2.00 for the Johnson's Baby Lotion

I should have received $1.50 for the Crest but it didn't print. I'm sort of tired of complaining to the store so I sort of cut my loses because I still am making a profit.

Please be aware that the +UP rewards are only printing once per product. In other words, I could not return later this week and buy the Pampers and expect to get a +UP reward. Rite Aid now clearly states in their flyer Limit 1 +UP reward per household.

My CVS trip 8-1-10

Pictured is what I purchased-

Dawn Dish soap- $0.97
10 Sobe Life waters- $1.59 (BOGO Sale this week)
Altoids- $1.49
Boost- $4.99

Coupons Used...
$3 off of $15 (this coupon was mailed to me since I subscribe to their emails
5 BOGO Sobe coupons (I won these from http://headsortails.sobe.com/ you can print 2 per day)
$1.50 Boost coupon
$1.00 Dawn coupon (I got this coupon from a P&G mailer)

I also redeemed $1.00 Extra Care Bucks. My total out of pocket was $0.98. I also earned a $1.00 Extra Care Buck for the Altoids. My total savings was $26.39.

I really suggest you play the Sobe game because you will get two free bottles from CVS this week since they are on BOGO and you would have a BOGO coupon!!! I plan to return later this week once I win more coupons.
