Rite Aid 2/17-2/23 Ad Scan

The classic eye vs face debate has been rehashed many times


Please do not revisit this.
yes... eyes are on the face
was it the MQ intent for usage???... probably not

SD does not try to interpret the intention of the q..
everyone will have a YMMV according to the mgr/cashier/ wind blowing and if you are wearing purple pants while trying to use the q

please take the deal if you want it, and leave it if you do not feel it is correct

thank you

Quote from SailorMom66 : I am wondering if these are beepers for the eyeshadow. Difficult to push through 8 $3 coupons unless they are beepless. TIA

This coupon has been out before. It will beep on the eyeshadow unless they have changed the programming. Last time my store pushed them thru (I remember cashier commenting that the ONLY exclusion was magic serum...or whatever it is) so he was OK with it.

Quote from gswood : Yes, I have like $70 ups , what to do what to do?

Quote from bxgirl : Since my store is always out of stock, I get a lot of rain checks. When I'm stuck, I go to my stash. I always try to use the big UPS first ($10 and $20) even if they have later expiration dates. They can be very hard to move. And every time I get panicky, a RA deal always seems to pop up.

The monthly Natrol/Laci LaBeau vitamin and diet supplement deal may be how I am going to have to roll some. Although I can wait until the next sales week to see if I will have to do this. I didn't do it yet because I really didn't want any of the products.

And I have been putting off buying Sharpies, Art Skills, and the Banana Boat. And I am really hoping all the White Hot Ducks I ordered will come in but they are on back order so I am not counting on them.

exactly
but I am going to use an anniversary UP to make this truly free (otherwise I am paying tax for this roll, and a hefty $40 worth of tax potentially too)
and I am going to burn $70 on the Smart TV Adapter (against my better judgement b/c I don't buy Craig, but I have nothing better to do with my $ now that SCRs are gone)
Craig counts towards anniversary too

I have been using my Anniversary UPs wisely to reduce tax and if I were going to do the Natrol it would be with the RA48 UPs.

I don't know about the smart tv adapter but my Craig TV I got at RA hasn't had any trouble. If I had enough UPs to blow, I would consider that adapter. I like paying zero dollars for stuff like that.

My Natrol was NOT taxable in my highly taxed state of NY. Make sure its taxable before you waste the RA 48.

Good point. Vitamins get taxed here but the herbal teas aren't taxed as they are considered food.

- $2.50/2 VV
- $2.50/2 mq RP 1/6
=6.98 oop
get $1UP & $1UP ...like 4.98/2 or 2.49 each
plus 11.98 gives $2.20 of UP for Anniv Promo

Quote from staxin : I am going to burn $70 on the Smart TV Adapter (against my better judgement b/c I don't buy Craig, but I have nothing better to do with my $ now that SCRs are gone) Craig counts towards anniversary too

Well, sort of. I bought the Craig 32" TV the first week of the new promotion. Apparently the TV is not included. We went round and round on this and they eventually credited me the cost. They said it (the TV) was among the Craig items not included. I would assume the Adapter would work...but be advised, some Craig items are not included.

Quote from missusg : from previous week's thread: I only have 2 VV but it looks like more expensive items are $5 off retail maybe some are $20ish? $30 -2 x 5VV -2 x $1mq get 5, 5UP $6 toward anniversary oop $2

For RevitaLift, be on the lookout for $2 peelies on promotion displays...several Revitalift products have the peelies.

With the next couple of weeks being difficult for rolling UP rewards, the Tresemme holds some light (if you still have the peelies)

Buy 2 Tresemee x $3.50 = $7.00
- 2 x $1.75 peelies = $3.50 oop

Get $2 Up + and counting for anniversary worth $1.40

Net 10 cent for 2 poo/cond

Limit 3 deals (means $10+ UP reward recirculated for 30 cents)

What's the cheapest Osteo Bi-Flex product? The $15 +Up WYB $30 sounds good with the mfr's coupons, plus it counts toward the Anniversary +Up.

Here's the weekly shopping plan!

1) This is a recap/summary of deals already posted - PLEASE REP OP in this thread!
2) Some of the deals are mine, may not be great deals for all but I always have a ton of UPs to roll so a loss one week will be made of for another week.
3) If you find errors, please let me know and I will edit so it will be useful for all.
4) As always check the wording on your MQs for transaction limits. I have only lumped things together for simple math. Some of these may or may not need to be spread out over several transactions.
5) **** denotes qualifies for RA50 Promo
6) some scenarios below are purchasing at MAX limit, you may need to alter the math if you don't want that many.

The cheapest one that I found is the Triple Strength, 80ct. which is $29.99 reg, so $23.99 gold.

$5 in the 1/6 RP and also 2/10 RP.

$19.99 .. bought about 8 of them the past couple weeks ... they were a great deal with the January $3 VV and $4/1 MFC (with no size restriction)... stil a great deal without the VV

19.99 * 2 * gold level = 31.98
15 UP, 2 $4/1 MFCs = 8.98 and 6.39 counting for Anniv Promo
