Why I LOVE Rite-Aid....

If you have never shopped at Rite-Aid..you are missing out! After my second "full fledge" trip using coupons/rebates I have to say it's amazing!

Here are some of the great reasons to LOVE shopping there..
  • They have in-store coupons that you can stack with manufacture coupons (which means both together)!
  • If you have a BOGO coupon and the products are on sale BOGO, you can still use the coupons, which means....You get both items free! Also, if you have a B1G1 coupon you can still use a $off coupon for the second product.
  • They have SIMPLE rebates that are awesome. You sign up online & basically, whenever you buy something that has a rebate, you enter your receipt online. At the end of the month or whenever you want your returns, you submit all & they mail you your check. You can cash your check at the bank or take it to Rite-Aid and use it on your next purchase.
To show you how easy it is...I am going to show you some of how and what I did today...
  • Gilette Deoderant    4.99
  • Gilette Body Wash  4.99
    • $2 off coupon

This is just an example to show you how using coupons, rebates, and sale price stockups to get great deals!
  • Retail price: $67.36
  • Sales price before coupons: $49.61
  • Out of pocket: $15.15
  • Rebates: $11
  • Final Price: $4.15 for all of that above!
See how stocking up on products during sales and coupons helps? If you just "ran out" of that item and bought it at full price, you would have spent about $63 more! Anyways, just thought I would share an "unconventional" store that most people don't think of & you can get massive amounts for cheap!

Hope you are having a great day!

I don't want to jump on the "shop for me" train, but seriously? Coupons in this area are GREATLY lacking! Can you keep an eye out for diapers and wipes? Those things must have steals! Consider it a gift from Aunt Morgan!
