More Rite-Aid This Week

When do I ever just go to Rite-Aid once in a week? lolz

So the Nature's Truth $2 rebate came back into my Ibotta gallery so I went and bought two more Vit. E sticks on son's card/account.
And I didn't take a photo of those, just look at them in this photo from earlier in the week and ignore the razors. lol

Spent $1.99 in Bonus Cash and have $1.01 BC left on that card.
The Vitamin E sticks counted toward the Spend $45/Get $15 BC Deal.

Then I realized another deal.  My store put out a ton of clearance Almay/Revlon make-up.  I had tons of Qs for those things from the 2/9 inserts(I was gifted 3 copies of those inserts so I had 4 copies including my own copy).

I bought 1 clearance lipstick to test if these clearance items count toward the Spend $45/Get $15 BC Deal in this week's ad.....................

1 x Revlon lipstick=$2.49
1 x PayDay bar on sale=.59¢
SubTotal........$3.08

I used a $3/1 Revlon lip ManuQ=$3.00
So I had to buy the candy bar to absorb the overage on that Q.

$3.08-$3=.08¢ which I paid in CASH! *horror!*

And yes, the clearance Revlon counted toward the Spend $45/Get $15 BC Deal.
Yay!
I now had $5.07 counting toward this deal so then I bought all this out of the clearance make-up table.......

Actually there was 1 more of those Almay Glow things(the boxes at the upper center)that I bought.
I gifted one to the cashier after I bought them as she "oohed" at that and she was the person who gifted me the extra ManuQ inserts where all the Qs I used came from, so really, she had "earned" that much. ;-)

2 x Revlon lip color things $2.62=$5.24
1 x Revlon lip stick=$2.37
3 x Almay Duo Stick Glow $3.49=$10.47
2 x Revlon concealer $3.12=$6.24
2 x Almay lip gloss $2.57=$5.14
1 x Almay smart shade face=$3.82
2 x Revlon  insta-sculpt kit $3.87=$7.74
SubTotal..........$41.02

Coupons Used
3 x $3/1 Revlon lip item=$9.00
4 x $3/1 Almay face item=$12.00
4 x $3/1 Revlon face item=$12.00
2 x $1/1 Almay lip item=$2.00
Coupon Total.........$35.00

$41.02-$35.00=$6.02+.37¢ sales tax=$6.39 paid for with Bonus Cash
$41.02+$5.07 earned in the previous transactions put me at $46.09 spent so I earned a new $15 BC back.

$6.39 spent and $15 earned back made this a $8.61 moneymaker.

I then bought this to finish spending down that $1.01 on my son's card as it was expiring today and not on Sunday as I had thought.........

2 x Reese's on sale .59¢=$1.18
I used $1.01 in BC to pay and spent .17¢ OOP in CASH. *thud!*

I ended up spending a whole quarter in real money today at Rite-Aid.  This totally wrecks my 100% savings rate for Feb. at R-A because I didn't use my free gift card to pay that bit.
Oh well....everyone makes mistakes sometimes, even ol' Sluggy. 8-)))

If your store has Almay and Revlon on the clearance table or area and you have the 2/9 Qs but you won't be going to R-A today, there are two separate Almay and Revlon offers next week-Spend $15/Get $3 on the Almay and Spend $12/Get $3 on the Revlon.  Not sure until someone reports back if the clearance items work on those Deals so YMMV until then.  This week's Spend $45/Get $15 Deal seemed better though(more back in BC but next week you only need to spend $17 total to earn $6 BC back)and at my store by Sunday and the new ad week the clearance table will be bare so best to do this week's deal.
