Actually, this was my SECOND time in Rite-Aid on Monday. Remember my previous 'flu post'? I forgot to mention that while out yesterday to take the change to the Coinstar machine I also stopped at Rite-Aid to do a transaction. Some where, in my flu filled brain, I 'thought' I had seen online that Rite-Aid had the GE LED xmas lights for 2/$10 this week, so I had built a scenario around using my $3/1 GE LED light Qs to get me some, since our lights are dead.
So, I walk into Rite-Aid and not only are there NO GE LED xmas lights on sale, they don't even carry GE Lights!LOLOL
So I left emptyhanded, as I hadn't brought 'spare/back-up scenario' Qs with me to get to a $25 order.
Bleh.
So add that little gem to my already weirdo 3 days and you can write me off as a full blown lunatic!
Anyway, back to last evening's trip to Rite-Aid. I was able to pull myself together enough to actually purchase something and without screwing things up! Ya'll might want to try this scenario too....
Oh! and notice I have Finally changed the tablecloth on the kitchen table to something Christmasy. That's about the extent of my Holiday Decorating so far......bleh......

** When you go to print the Scotch PDF Qs, set your printer to print page one ONLY, unless of course you want all 5 Qs offered. The Pop-up Tape Q is on page 1 of the 2 pages of Qs.
*** Even though the AirWick Q was for 1 penny more than the price of the product on sale, the Q did NOT beep. Put this Q in the middle of your Qs and the cashier probably won't notice the Q is 1¢ over....I say this in case your store is anal about adjusting Qs down. Rite-Aid has a policy of adjusting Qs down but sometimes you run across the new cashier or the uninformed hardass cashier. I'm just saying.....
*** The $3/1 IPQ for the M5 Magnum Razor does not say it's also for the Refills. My store takes it anyway for the refills because they love me....er, I mean they don't care. But this Q is a YMMV if you try to use it on refills. If there is a hassle, just buy the M5 razor instead.
Did anybody go to Rite-Aid this week yet? What did you get that was good?
Sluggy
Glad you're feeling better and the deals are returning :) I haven't hit up Rite Aid this week and may not, but I LOVE reading about your deals there!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOur Christmas decorating to date is the tiny tree with only a few of the lights actually lighting - LOL! Our outside lights aren't up and now that we had a bunch of snow, I'm not entirely sure when/if they'll go up. But that's okay - this year, many other houses on our block are nicely lit, so I don't feel as motivated. In the past, our house was the only one with lights... maybe we'll take this year off :)
Take the year off....your electric bill will thank you come January.lol
