I also have tracking of $6 spent for the Lindt.

I then spent/rolled the remaining $6 in +Ups I had that weren't earned today.....


2 x Lindt choccie bags on sale=$6.00
1 x Oxi Clean dishwashing tabs on sale=$3.99
2 x Wet Ones wipes on sale BOGO=$3.49
Sub Total.....$13.48

I used my $6 in +Ups and paid $1.56 OOP.

Yes, I was one +Up Rewards short to have my total under $1.
I hang my head in shame......

I received back $8 more in +Up Rewards for this transaction($3 wyb$12 in Lindt, $2 Oxi Clean, $3 wyb2 Wet Ones).

The total spent today.....$1.85
Total value of goods brought home.....$84.76
Total +Up Rewards spent/rolled......$22
Total +Up Rewards earned.....$20

*  The Renuzits was an outstanding deal, mainly because I had an old rain check I never cashed in when they were an +Up Rewards Deal last year and they ran out of product.  It was $3/3 but gave a $2 +Up so the rain check cost was $1 for 3 items with a limit of 6, so $2 for 6 air fresheners.  They also spit out $4 in +Up Rewards this week(2 x$1 for every 3 you buy and 1 x $2 for every 5 you buy).
This made the Renuzits a $2 MM!
If this is a product you can use and your store is out, be sure and get a rain check(will make 3 cost you $2)and wait for another +Up generating Deal on the item to cash it in and you will make out much better than paying $2 for 3 air fresheners. 8-)

** My Dawn Q was expiring today.  Though I didn't receive any kind of reward for buying these items, I may want to do the Tide/Dawn Deal later this week.  The Dawn was .98¢ for 2 with the coupons so even if I don't do the Tide/Dawn Deal it's a good buy.

I also will receive another .75¢ cash back from SavingStar for activating that electronic coupon before shopping and then buying the FSTG chips. 
So really after I get that my OOP spending goes down to $1.10.

Here is how everything shook down after +Up Rewards were received back/applied--
The 6 x Renuzits were a $2 moneymaker
The 4 x Lindt choccies cost $1 for 4 bags.
The 2 x Dawn was .49¢ a bottle.
The 2 x FSTG chips cost .25¢ for 2 bags.
The 4 x Wet Ones were a $1.02 moneymaker
The Reach toothbrush cost .99¢.
The 4 x Hershey's cost .45¢ a bag.
The Oxi Clean dishwasher tabs cost .99¢.

And I added another 100 or so points to this Wellness card.  I have to go into the account in a day or two to see the final total of points up to now.

I still need to go back this week to do the Dove/Unilever Deal on my card and maybe a few more things besides.
This is a good week to roll those +Up Rewards at Rite-Aid!

Guess Where I Went Today?

If you answered Rite-Aid, you'd be RIGHT!lol

Actually I went yesterday afternoon too.
I went in on Friday afternoon with $14 in +Ups and used my Wellness card......


I'm do this quickly and not bore you with the intimate details because most of these deals ended Saturday night.

This lot of stuff cost me $.77 on my gift card after Qs/sales and used $5 in +Up Rewards.  I received $15 in +Up Rewards back(2 x $2 Pantene, $3 WYB Crest Rinse, $4 StingEase Max, 2 x $2 Oral-B Power Toothbrushes).  The Reach toothbrushes also counted $8 toward the J&J Spend $30/Get $10 +Ups Deal, so I just have to spend another $22 to get that $10 reward.

Used $5 +Ups, Got $15.....$14 going in - $5=$9 + $15=$24 +Ups.

Next Transaction was on BIL's card.....

This lot of stuff cost me $1.91 on my gift card after Qs/sales and used $16 +Up Rewards.  I received $26 in +Up Rewards back(2 x $3 Nivea Body Wash-part of the Gillette BW Deal, $10 Monthly WYB $20 Nivea, 2 x $2 Pantene, 2 x $2 Oral-B Power Toothbrushes, $2 WYB 3 $1 Toothpastes).

Started with $24+Ups - $16+Ups=$8+Ups + $26+Ups=$34+Ups.

Back to my card again and I bought this stuff.....

This lot of stuff cost me $.45 on my gift card after Qs/sales and used $6 in +Up Rewards.  I received $16 in +Up Rewards back(2 x $3 Oral-B Toothpaste, $10 WYB $30 J&J Deal).

Started with $34+Ups - $6+Ups=$28+Ups + $16+Ups=$44+Ups

And one more transaction on my Card again......

I spent $.34 on my gift card and Qs/sales and used $10 in +Up Rewards.  I received $13 in +Up Rewards back($3 Crest Rinse, $5 Lanacane, $1 Lanacane-a monthly maybe?, $4 Revlon WYB 2 beauty tools).

Started with $44+Ups - $10+Ups=$34+Ups + $13+Ups=$47+Up Rewards.
The Revlon tools qualified for a $2 Single Check Rebate as well.

So to recap, I put $3.47  of Out of Pocket expenses on my free gift card, brought home $244.34 worth of toiletries, grew my +Up Rewards from $14 to $47 and Rite-Aid is sending me a $2 cash rebate also.

I made a few mistakes this past week running my Deals at Rite-Aid but all in all?.....I was tearing it UP at Rite-Aid. ;-)

And I did a lot of this on Saturday......still product in the stores at the end of the week for a change.  I gave my fellow shoppers plenty of opportunity to get these deals this week, before I swept in and finished my shopping off on Sat. afternoon.   I detest shelf clearing but if it's 4pm on Saturday and the sale ends on Sat. night at 9pm, I will take the last 2 of something at that point......or maybe get a raincheck. ;-)


No excuse for dirty hair or teeth in this house now.....!

A Rite-Aid Quickie!

Everybody likes a quickie, right? ;-)

After dropping #2 Son at Marching Band Camp I ran over to Rite-Aid to do some deals.

6 x Dove Shampoo on sale 2/$7=$21.00
2 x Axe Deodorant on sale but 20% wellness disc. less($4.39)=$8.78
1 x Suave Shampoo on sale-price for 1=$1.99
SubTotal.....$31.77

Coupons Used

3 x $2/2 Dove items AdPerkQ=$6.00 *YMMV
2 x $1/1 Axe Deodorant ManuQ(Sunday paper)=$2.00
1 x $2/2 Axe items AdPerkQ=$2.00
Coupon Total.....$19.00

$31.77-$19.00=$12.77
I used $9 in +Up Rewards, leaving me an OOP of $3.77, which I put on my gift card.

I received back $10 in +Up Rewards(2 x $5 WYB $15 in Unilever items).

Then I bought this stuff here.....





2 x Crest Mouth Rinse on sale $5=$10.00
2 x Head & Shoulders Shampoo on sale $4.99=$9.98
2 x Crest Toothpaste on sale $3.00=$6.00
SubTotal....$25.98

Coupons Used
1 x BOGO Crest Mouth Rinse ManuQ=$5.00
1 x $1/1 Crest Mouth Rinse ManuQ=$1.00
1 x BOGO Head/Shoulders ManuQ=$4.99
1 x $1/1 Head/Shoulders ManuQ=$1.00
1 x $1/2 Crest Toothpaste ManuQ=$1.00
Coupon Total.....$12.99

$25.98-$12.99=$12.99
I used the $10 in +Up Rewards I got in the last transaction and put the $2.99 left OOP on my gift card.

I received $14 in +Up Rewards back(2 x $3 Crest Rinse, 2 x $1 Head/Shoulders, 2 x $3 Crest Toothpaste)

I'm OOP $6.76 on my gift card, I have $81.35 worth of stuff and $14 in +Ups to roll.

If I hadn't forgotten some Qs on this trip, I would have done the Dove deal a bit differently and bought $45 worth instead of $30 worth.  There is a limit of 3 deals on the Spend $15/Get $5 for the Unilever items.  I have $1.77 spent so far toward the 3rd Deal of $15, so I'll go back WITH my Qs this time(doh!)and get more Axe and Dove.

If you want to do the Head & shoulders and/or the Crest Rinse Deals you need to do them before the end of July.  The H&S deal uses a BOGO Q from the July P&G insert(so it expires 7/31), and the Crest Rinse uses a $1/1 Q from that same insert.

About the Crest Rinse BOGO Q.....it's for 2 different sized of Rinse(Buy a large bottle, get a smaller bottle).  The ONLY smaller bottles that you can buy with this Q AND get you the 2nd $3 +Up Reward is the White specialty Rinse bottle....it's the only bottle of that size tagged on sale for $5.00.  If you buy a regular priced small bottle it will qualify to be used with the Q but it won't generate the 2nd $3 +Up.

The Pantene is also a good deal this week.
There is a $3/2 ManuQ in the Sunday inserts for Pantene.
Buy 2 bottles at Rite-Aid this week on sale for $7.
After Q, you pay $4 and then get back a $2 +Up Rewards wyb 2 bottles.
In the end, each bottle costs you $1 after +Up.

I'll be heading back after they get the truck unloaded to see if any Oral-B toothbrushes came in so I can do the Get $2 +Up WYB 3 Oral-B Toothbrushes Deal.  I also want to do the J&J Deal too and they are out of Reach floss.....that on sale for $2 and I have $2/1 Tearpad Qs so free and counts toward the $30 you have to spend to get the $10 +Up.

Out Of Pocket....$16.36 cash
Value of items bought....$65.52+$49.25+$49.19 + $36.01 + $81.35=$281.32
Single Check Rebate due....$6.00

+Ups at beginning of month...$33+
+Ups used....$75+
+Ups received...$56+
+Ups currently...$14+
