I made 6 trips to Rite-Aid between 7/21 & 7/24 that I didn't post about yet.....*I hang my head in shame....for 6 trips or is it for not posting about it yet?lol*
I had lots of $5 off $20 AdPerks Qs that were expiring on the 24th. I also discovered a good deal using 2 of the Olay Qs from the P&G insert that is expiring on the 31st....the $4/1 Olay Total Effects and the Buy an Olay Total Effects Body Wash/Get an Ivory Product FREE(up to $3).
By using my 20% wellness discount at Rite-Aid, I could get the Total Effects Body Wash for between $4.23-$3.99(depending on which Rite-Aid I went to). The Ivory Soap 4 packs were between $2.79 & $2.63 as well so I could get those free with the 2nd Q. Meaning for every pair of items I bought I either paid .23¢ for both or got both free(again, depending on which store I went to).

There was a $5 +Up reward on TwinLabs supplements last week & the energy drinks qualified so I got a $5 +UP Reward for every 2 products I bought. The drinks cost $2.98 and gave back a $5 +UPs so I was ahead $2.02 for every pair of drinks(1 pair per transaction).

I realized during the week that the 8 pack Duracell, of which the stores did NOT have but had bonus 10 packs instead were NOT qualifying for the Duracell $10 SCR. So instead of having $20+ spent in batteries I only had $4.99 at this point, with the rebate period ending on Saturday. So we struck out on Saturday to do 3 transactions and get enough battery credits to qualify for the rebate.

**My total should have been higher, as it looks like the cashier took off the full price of the Olay product($4.99)instead of the Ivory product($2.63). So I got a serendipitous $2.36 extra off my purchases this time.
In addition.....I've spent over $30 in Olay/Pantene/Cover Girl/Secret, Venus products so I can send for the $10 off $30 rebate that runs until the end of Sept. HERE.

As usual -- WOW! :) I looked at both RAs here, but neither had that in-between size of the Total Effects bw. Anyway, it doesn't matter because I loooove reading about your hauls!
ReplyDelete".*I hang my head in shame....for 6 trips or is it for not posting about it yet?lol*"-Even when you are being naughty you are funny! As long as it is all getting used up, I don't think that would qualify as hoarding! I hate to see free stuff slip by!
ReplyDeletePretty--I'm sorry your stores don't carry the small sized Total Effects. I wonder if Target would have it?
ReplyDeleteSonyaAnn--NOTHING goes to waste here! I've gotten where I don't buy stuff just because it's free or cheap...I also have to have a way to use it up. But that being said, clearance signs still call to me...lol
