Rite-Aid--Working on the Beauty Gift Card Reward Deal

I went to Rite-Aid on Monday and used two of those Tresemme Catalinas I had leftover from all that Tresemme I bought the week before last.............

The first transaction was the two mascaras on the top of the photo.
Cover Girl mascara on sale BOGO50%=$9.73
I used.......
1 x $2.50 CatalinaQ=$2.50
2 x $1/1 CG Mascara IPQs=$2.00
$9.73-$4.50=$5.23+.32¢ tax=$5.55 paid with BC(no BOGO50% since I only bought one)=$5.99
I used.......
1 x $1.50 CatalinaQ=$1.50
1 x $1/1 CG face product IPQ=$1.00
1 x $2/1 any CG item R-A snail mailedQ=$2.00
$5.99-$4.50=$1.49+.09¢ tax=$1.58 paid with BC

 $7.13 paid in BC, $7 in new BC earned back and this card has $21.15 in purchases toward the $10 Beauty Reward GC so only $28.85 left to get it to $50 spent.

I still have a $1.50 Catalina to use before Saturday but not sure what to use it on yet.

I also bought a few gift cards that give back BC this week to get my BC amounts up a bit before the Black Friday sales.  They were GCs I was going to buy eventually anyway so why not reap the benefit of getting some BC?

Rite-Aid Hijinks on Saturday

So I went back to R-A on Saturday and used the rest of my Tresemme Qs..........

After stacked Qs/Catalina I spent .50¢ in BC on one card and .53¢ in BC on another card(conditioners are subject to sales tax in PA but shampoo is not).
So I have $10 more in spending toward the Beauty Reward gift card on two different cards.

I also returned the 2 tubes of Foot Scrub I bought on Wednesday........

It gave me $10.94 back in BC and $3.96 back in cash due to the coupons that were used..........

I also returned an item bought a while back I had been meaning to return and I got cash back for that item instead of BC back.............

I think if your receipt is beyond a certain time limit they give you cash?  Neither the cashier or I know and I would have been happy with BC back on the card instead.
Whatever.  I'll tuck this $11.99 aside to use at R-A if need be.

I still need to purchase 2 bottles of Gold Bond to finish that $10 BC "Winter" Deal and that purchase will put me over $50 Beauty items spent and earn me a $10 gift card on a third card and I now have enough BC back on that card to cover that purchase.
Nice.

More later as the Beauty Reward Gift Card drama unfolds.........
