I am waiting for the phone to ring any minute.
Why?
Because I haven't been into my local Rite-Aid all week!
I am sure after the number of trips into Rite-Aid I made in August, they believe I have moved away from this town or have fallen deathly ill, since they haven't seen my face since the morning of August 28th, 7 whole days ago!
And they need to know that I am ok, so they will be calling me any minute.
I do enjoy a good healthy Single Check Rebate check, especially when it means that I've gotten all those items I bought at Rite-Aid for FREE once the check comes in.
But last month.....
Last month I went a tad overboard, let's say.
I say this because I am waiting on a Single Check Rebate of.....ahem......$184.66 & a $10 Gift Card & a $5 off Coupon for Kelloggs.
Oh yes, and the Summer Care Tote Bag of goodies too.
I plead that it wasn't all MY fault that I will end up having spent actual money when the check comes in later this month. I ended up purchasing some unplanned items there. Items needed at the last minute for #1 son to take to college and some actual items that we needed(of a medical nature)that I didn't have coupons for &/or were not on sale.
The horror!!!
Usually I get it where all the items I buy at Rite-Aid cost under or as much as the Rebate check I get back. This time once the Rebate check comes in, I will have gone over it by $34.73(I don't count the gift card/coupons I get back as cash).
So in the end, my $745.14 worth of stuff I bought at Rite-Aid will have cost me out of pocket, including tax, $34.73 of my cash.
Not exactly free but still.....a tremendous value as it's all stuff we can use or we need.
Except the Renu Contact Solution that was free after rebate. I don't know WHAT I was thinking on that one!lolol
Now to make reading this post profitable to all of you readers, there is a coupon available for a new herbal/homeopathic item HERE. It's called CANKERMELTS. It's a treatment for Canker Sores of the mouth.
The link is a PDF so just print it out, cut the coupon and take it to either Rite-Aid or Walgreen's by September 30th and get a free box.
The stuff retails for $7.99 for a small box of 12 so go get some to try if you are bothered by canker sores.
And let me know if it works for you.
