Rite-Aid run for FAR Items week of 10/25-10/31

Did a quick run to Rite-Aid to pick up the weekly FAR(=Free after Rebate) items.


1 x Scope Mouthwash FREE WYB Crest Toothpaste=$0.00
1 x Crest Toothpaste  on sale $3.99 WYB Scope Mouthwash=$3.99
1 x St. Ives Scrub temp price reduction=$3.59
1 x Finesse Shampoo on sale=$2.99
1 x Febreeze Odor Eliminator=$4.29
2 x GE Soft White Lightbulb Packs on sale @$1.00=$2.00 **Not Pictured**
2 x Hall's Refresh Drops @$2.49=$4.98
SubTotal=$21.84

Coupons Used
1 x $4 off $20 Rite-Aid Q(from coupons.com)=$4.00
1 x $1/1 Scope Mouthwash(P and G insert Q)=$1.00
1 x $1/1 Crest Toothpaste(P and G insert Q)=$1.00
1 x $1/1 Finesse Shampoo(10/18 insert Q)=$1.00
1 x $1/1 Febreeze Odor Eliminator(insert Q week of ?)=$1.00
1 x BOGO Hall's Refresh Drop Q(Rite-Aid ad Q)=$2.49
1 x BOGO Hall's Refresh Drop Q(Tearpad from grocery store-limit of $2.29 off)=$2.29
Coupon Total=$12.78

$21.84-$12.78=$9.06+$tax=$9.68 OOP
Value of Items $38.71.

I'll receive $7.00 back in SCRebates($2 lightbulbs/$2 Febreeze/$3 St. Ives).
Plus there is a Finesse MIR to the company for $2.
This totals rebates of $9.00, reducing my 'spending' to .68¢

Or so I thought!  Seems I bought the wrong St. Ives....my 6oz. container doesn't have a rebate, as it's the 10 oz. jar only, WHICH they were out of....grrr.
My store also doesn't carry the new Vaseline that I had a $1.50 Q for and had a $4 SCRebate....double grrr.

So my SCRebates are only $4 for this transaction, but I still can send for the Finesse $2 rebate, making rebate refund total $6.
So the effective OOP spending is $3.68  I might just have to return that St. Ives product, since I didn't even have a coupon for it.
**sigh**
