Chasing the 4 Day Extravaganza Sale at Rite-Aid.....Still Looking!

So Rite-Aid started a 4-Day mini Sale on Wednesday, or as they call it, their 4-Day EXTRAVAGANZA SALE. It runs Wednesday to Saturday of this week.

I hit the local store yesterday morning....
I did the Garnier Buy $30, Get a $10 +Up Rewards Deal.

I also got the $5 Maybelline +Up Reward so after Coupons and $5 in +Ups used to pay and $.20 put on my gift card, with $15 in +Ups received=$10 moneymaker for me.

Before I left the store I asked about the 4 Day Sale and the cashier ran and got me a 4-Day Flyer and said they just haven't gotten to putting out the specials for this sale yet. Since no items that were specific for just this sale were out, no signage was on the shelves yet either.

I checked out another Rite-Aid over by the grocery store I went to for milk and eggs in the afternoon. They had the 4-Day Flyers out by the door, but again, there was nothing that was special for this sale on the shelves yet(but there was a huge pallet wrapped in plastic of bins waiting to be stocked sitting in a main aisle). And nothing that was regular merchandise on the shelves already that was part of this sale was marked yet.
Looks like the 4-Day Sale is going to be a 3 or 2 Day Sale in these parts by the time the overworked employess get around to getting the signage/merchandise out.

I picked up some items anyway.....after all, it's Rite-Aid and I just had to, ya know?lol.....

* The Revlon nail polish was suppose to be BOGO 50%off, so 2 should have been $7.18.  But 1 rang up as a clearance item at $1.19, so the other item rang up at $3.83 which is my 20% wellness discount.  This was unexpected and made my pre-coupon total below $25 by almost $2.  I noticed and was looking for something to throw onto my bill as I handed the cashier the coupons, but before I could she just started scanning them quickly.  I tried to tell her I needed to add something to use the $5 off coupon but she waved me off and it rang up anyway.  Well, I tried....lol
If you want to know the clearanced polish color was called "Gold Get Em".

** Though the Colgate Toothpaste was on sale for $2.99, the 20% off wellness price made it lower at $2.95, so I received that price instead.

After dinner I ran back up the street to see if they put out the Pistachios yet.
That was a big nope!
So I got....didn't see that one coming now, did ya?lol.....
