Wellness Wednesday Haul...So Much Rite-Aid Porn!


Wednesday was the first Wednesday of the month so you know what that means?  The one day Wellness Wednesday coupons at Rite-Aid!

And boy, were there some good deals to be had!!!

But first, I picked up a few samples on the WW table........


A small Aquaphor lotion spray and 2 Cold-Eeze sample boxes.  Hubs loves those Cold-Eeze things when he comes down with a cold.

I won't go into the details of my transactions but I had both the paper one-day Qs and had them loaded digitally to my Load2Card accounts on 3 cards held in this household and all the Qs came off both from the paper ones and the digital ones.
I printed out a few manufacturer's Qs too to stack with some of the WWQs as well.

Here is a shot of everything I brought home yesterday........


A couple of items in the first few transactions I bought the wrong size or type of item but mostly the cashiers pushed those Qs through when they beeped. oh well...


I used a total of $46.94 in Bonus Cash across three different Wellness cards.


I earned back $57.00 in new Bonus Cash, so this was a $10.06 moneymaker trip, growing my BC by $10.06.


I also earned $19 in cash rebates from SavingStar and Ibotta(still waiting on one rebate to reload so I can claim it again but it's $16 earned so far).  8-)))

I also can sell those Pampers in the back on the photo and net another $45 cash.

Of course I have plans for all these items...either we need/want them here at Chez Sluggy, I'll donate some items to the food bank here in town or they'll be going into a Giveaway box this year! ;-)

So many of the items were better than free with the double coupons I had to buy other stuff to cover all that overage.  I tell ya it's was crazy!

Did you pick up anything at Rite-Aid on Wellness Wednesday?

Wellness Wednesday at Rite-Aid

Last Wednesday was the first Wednesday of December thus it was Wellness Wednesday and the One-Day Coupons were used to plan my shops that day.
The L2CQ one-day Qs were stacking with a copy of the same paper Qs in the store.
I used those Qs to pick up some things we need/can use as well as utilized the hack that let's you buy gift cards up to the amount of your coupons used per transaction.

Here is what I got on Daughter's card........

I earned back $13.00 in new BC($1 Reese's, $3 Vaseline, $1 wyb2 Lipton and $8 wyb$50 select GCs).

The $1.50/1 L2CQ for the candy didn't come off the card and the .50¢/1 Vaseline L2CQ was unexpected(as was the $2 Peelie Q on the Emergen-C item)
4 of the WWQs wouldn't scan so the asst. manager had to put them in manually.

Then I did this on my card.......



1 x Finish dishwasher tabs on sale=$4.99
1 x Vaseline lotion on sale=$6.63
2 x Lipton tea bags 20% Wellness disc.=$6.58
2 x Foster Grant sunglasses BOGOFree=$19.99

2 x RS sugar-free candy 20% Wellness disc.=$4.46
2 x Hershey's bars on sale=$1.00

1 x Domino's GC=$25.00

Coupons-same as before except this time the $4 Emergen-C L2CQ and the $1.50 RS sugar-free L2CQ didn't come off(and no 50¢ Vaseline unexpected L2CQ this time so $47 in Qs made it $17.42...tack on $1.04 tax total was $18.46+ $25 GC=$43.46 paid for with Bonus Cash
I earned back $10 in new BC($1 Hershey's, $2 wyb2 Lipton, $3 Vaseline and $5 wyb $25 Domino's GC).

Lastly I did this on my son's card..........


1 x Finish dishwasher tabs on sale=$4.99
2 x Lipton tea bags 20% Wellness disc.=$6.58
2 x Foster Grant sunglasses BOGOFree=$15.99*not pictured*

2 x RS sugar-free candy 20% Wellness disc.=$4.46
2 x Reese's pb cups on sale=$1.00
SubTotal......$42.60

Same old, same old Qs were used so $5.20+$.44¢tax=$5.64 after Qs paid for with Bonus Cash.
I earned $2 in new BC($2 wyb2 Lipton).

I might take back an Emergen-C and some sugar-free candy since the L2CQs didn't come off and I "paid" more than I wanted to for those items.  Whatever.  It was a pretty good trip either way.  ;-)

Some Rite-Aid Stuff

So I went to Rite-Aid earlier this week and bought all this in three different transactions...........


3 x Colgate toothpaste on sale($3.99)=$11.97
2 x Colgate mouth rinse on sale($3.99)=$7.98
4 x Russel Stover chocolate eggs on sale(.50¢)=$2.00
SubTotal........$21.95

Coupons used........
5 x $2/1 In-Ad Colgate item Q=$10.00
1 x $2/1 Colgate toothpaste manuQ=$2.00
1 x $2/1 Colgate mouth rinse manuQ=$2.00
2 x $1/1 Colgate toothpaste IPQ=$2.00
1 x $1/1 Colgate mouth rinse IPQ=$1.00
Coupon Total.....$17.00

But an unexpected L2CQ also came off so $18 in Qs

$21.95-$18.00=$3.95+.08¢ tax=$4.03
I used $2.05 in Plenti Points and $1.98 off my R-A gift card because of breaking this into 3 transactions(otherwise I could have just used $4.03 in PPs).

In the third transaction 2 of my RA in-ad $2/1 Qs and a $1/1 IPQ for the toothpaste wouldn't come off  so the cashier did a "post coupon" and gave me back $5 cash.  This $5 made up for the $5 in Bonus Cash that came off in that transaction that wouldn't have if the Qs had gone through.

I earned back $2 in BC for the R/S eggs and I also earned $19.95 toward a "Spend $20/Get $5 BC Morning Routine Deal"for the Colgate items. Rite-Aid purposely made the prices of items for this deal $3.99 instead of $4.00 so you'd have to buy one extra item to break the $20 threshold.....a truly sucky thing to do! 
Also part of this Deal are Softscrub and Irish Spring B/W and soaps but those are cheaper starting Sunday with sale prices of $3.99(of course!),Qs coming out in Sunday's inserts stacked with In-AdQs in the sales flyer for those items. 
This Deal runs 2 weeks evidently. 
So I'll wait and buy a body wash next week to finish off this deal and get my $5BC.

In the end I'll have "spent" $5.02 on all the Colgate/SoftScrub items and will get back $5 in BC so it's a wash or if you want to be picky all 6 items I will have bought will have "cost" me .02¢.....but I can live with that.  8-)

Then on Wednesday, because I am crazy that way, I went to Rite-Aid while the snow took a break from falling for about 1.5 hours here, to see what Wellness Wednesday items I could scoop up.  ;-)

This was all on Daughter's card and I had a 25% emailed discount to use(if an item was cheaper that way rather than the sale price).


2 x Garnier Whole Blends shampoo on sale=$7.00
2 x Dr. Scholl's insoles clearanced($3.74)=$7.48
4 x Russel Stover chocolate eggs on sale=$2.00
3 x Clear Eyes w/25% disc.($10.34)=$31.02
1 x Centrum vitamins on sale=$9.99
2 x Dove chocolate covered cherries on sale=$7.00
2 x Biscoff biscotti cookies w/25% disc.($2.46)=$4.92
3 x B4Y dried fruit w/25% disc.($2.99)=$8.97
SubTotal.........$78.38 + .18¢ tax=$78.56

Coupons Used
1 x $4/1 Garnier shampoo ManuQ=$4.00
2 x $3/1 Dr. Scholl's ManuQ=$6.00
2 x $5/1 Clear Eyes ManuQ=$10.00
1 x $3/1 Clear Eyes IPQ=$3.00
1 x $3/1 Centrum IPQ=$3.00
1 x $4/1 Centrum WWQ=$4.00
2 x $2/1 Dove chocolate/fruit WWQ=$4.00
2 x $2/1 Biscoff WWQ=$4.00
3 x $1/1 B4Y dried fruit WWQ=$3.00
Coupon Total.....$41.00

$78.56-$41.00=$37.56
$37 in Bonus Cash should have come off (I had $43 in BC on this card)and I should have been left with .56¢ to put on my RA gift card.

But.........there always seems to be a but now, doesn't there? ;-)

But I was also buying 2 bottles of Ocuvite vitamins as I had ManuQs and WWQs to stack with those(they would have cost me $3.87 after 25% disc. and stacked Qs)but the WWQs beeped and I discovered that those were for a larger size bottle than I took.  The store was out of that larger size bottle so after ringing those vitamins in the cashier took them off the transaction but..........we discovered after the transaction was completed that only one bottle came off, so I "bought" a bottle in my transaction so the numbers were this instead........
$92.43-$41Q=$51.43
All $43 in BC on that card came off, leaving me with $8.43 which came off my Plenti Points.

After I got in the car and went over the receipt and went back in and had the cashier eyeball the receipt, the bottle that didn't come off was discovered, so then I got $8.43 back on my Plenti Points and I was handed $5.44 in cash.  Basically I got $5 in cash in lieu of $5 of my BC that had come off(and .44¢ to boot in cash as BC is only in increments of whole dollars).

I also earned $19 in new BC on this transaction($3 wyb $8 dried fruit, 2 x $7 wyb $15 eye items-Clear Eyes, 2 x $1 wyb2 R/S eggs).
In addition I will earn back $7 in cash rebates on SavingStar($4 for the Garnier shampoos, $3 for the Centrum).

The price breakdown per item--

The Garnier 'poos were a $1 moneymaker after sale/Qs/cash rebate.
The Dr. Scholl's were .74¢ each after clearance price/Qs.
The Russell Stover eggs were free after sale/BC earned.
College Boy needed a stockpile of eye drops so that is why the Clear Eyes items were bought. After disc./Qs/BC earned, the eye drops cost $1.34 each.
The Centrum vitamins were a .01¢ moneymaker after sale/stacked Qs/cash rebate.
The Dove chocolate covered fruit was $1.50 a bag after WWQs.
The Biscoff cookies were .46¢ a package after WWQs.
The B4Y dried fruit was .99¢ a bag after disc./WWQs/BC earned.

I may go back for free R/S eggs on my son's card this week(Easter baskets need filling), but otherwise I am finished at Rite-Aid for this sales ad.  If I had more Garnier Qs I could finish that "Spend $30/Get $10 in BC" Deal and with the sale price/Qs/BC earned/SavingStar cash rebate it would cost me $1.50 OOP for 9 bottles(.17¢ per bottle).
But really I don't need 7 more bottles of shampoo(beyond the two I bought this week).

The Perfect Rite-Aid Storm

What happens when Wellness Wednesday Sale with one day coupons(that can stack with reg. manu coupons)meets a 4 Day Sale at Rite-Aid?
You get some awesome deals for pennies(worth of points if you roll Plenti Points)on the dollar!

By combining the Wellness Wednesday coupon and regular manufacturer's coupons plus earning new Plenti Points, I got all this in the photos below(combining transactions from all 3 of our Wellness/Plenti accounts/cards............


I'll say I screwed up big time on the Crest.  The 4 Day Sale $2.99 varieties that gave back $1 in PPs(and had $2 Load2CardQs)was NOT tagged so I bought the wrong ones-the 2/$8 that gave $3 in PPs-and wasted my Qs on those. ugh.
On the Sinus Kit though I had two stackable Qs the register wouldn't take them both so my $8.32-$10 in Qs making it a $1.68 moneymaker didn't happen and I paid $3.23 + tax.  The toothpaste and sinus kit may be returned at a later date but we'll keep those in my total haul for now.


And here is the last little bit when I went to pick up my Rx.
If only there had been more than 2 Remfresh on the shelves I could have made ALL this a moneymaker!

Oh, and I also scarfed up all these freebie samples and most had coupons attached to them.

Burt's Bees, Zim's, Olay, Nexcare, R-A brand nasal strips and some brand of foot lotion I can't remember. lol

So let's see who can come closest to guessing how many Plenti Points I spent down for all this.(Of course, this is Rite-Aid and I didn't pay CASH for any of it!)

I'll reveal how many Plenti Points were spent in Friday's Frugal Friday post tomorrow.

I'll even give y'all a hint and put the "price" I paid for each item after sale/coupon(s) but not the points earned.
I'll also put the tax paid(in points of course)and total the list for ya! ;-)

6 x 4 pack Red Bull $35.94
2 x Arizona Tea  .99¢
1 x Jergen's wet skin Lotion .99¢
1 x Purex laundry detergent  .99¢
6 x Aquaphor lotion -$2.46
7 x Russel Stover sugar-free candy bags  $1.61
3 x Crest toothpaste  $2.82
2 x 3 Musketeers candy bars .77¢
4 x Listerine mouth wash  $11.42
4 x Blue Diamond almonds  $9.50
4 x Sparkling Ice drinks  $0.00
2 x Remfresh sleeping aid  -$4.02
1 x Rite-Aid ibuprofen 80 ct.  $2.95
1 x Xclear sinus rinse kit  $3.23

I also used a total of $12 in $X off $X Catalina Qs(2 x $2/$20, $3/$20, $5/$50)on 4 of my transactions.

$52.73 + $3.20 tax=$55.93 spent in PPs
$258.88 in regular retail prices.

What did it cost me in Plenti Points used?
