Rite-Aid for Valentine's Day

I meant to go to Rite-Aid Monday but the weather forecast meant I went out in the cold on Sunday night.
I bought this stuff on my card..........


6 x Tresemme Poo and Conditioner on sale $4ea.=$24.00

Coupons Used
I used a $3/15 wyb $15 in any hair care Q that was generated on my receipt earlier in the month=$3.00
And 3 x $3/2 Tresemme ManuQs from that Unilever book I got in VA at Walmart=$9.00
Coupon Total........$12.00

$24.00-$12.00=$12.00+.72¢tax=$12.72.
I used $12.72 in Plenti Points to pay.
I earned $30 in new Plenti Points(2 x $5 wyb3 Tresemme, $20 BPE wyb $100 tracking) so even though I "spent down" $2.72 in Points on the purchase(after I received $10 in Plenti points for buying the Tresemme)that $20 BPE Bonus Points made it ultimately into a $17.28 moneymaker.

I probably won't be doing anymore purchases during the BPE as there is little I see that I can buy that will get me to $150 in BPE tracking that will be nearly free or at least won't cost more than $15 in Points($15 in Points is the next Bonus Level).
There is nothing I NEED to buy there anyway as my toiltries supply is packed at the moment, even after culling out items to add to the Food Bank Donation I have going on at the moment.

Getting free toiletries is great but not if they exceed your storage space. ;-)
In Winter, when I don't travel anywhere and/or have anyone travel to see me here, it's difficult getting rid of some of this stuff, as I have a decade long supply of shampoo at the moment.
The stockpile of this will start to thin out as we get into "Traveling Season" and I get to share my good fortune with family and friends again.  8-)

Rite-Aid This Week

When I went out on Sunday to get Hubs his SB pizza and dip making supplies I also stopped in at Rite-Aid for the Deals.

Between what I printed online last week and what came in the 3 copies of the newspaper on Sunday I had 11 coupons for $1/1 Arm & Hammer Detergent.
Weis in last week's ad had this item for $1.87 per jug/pack, making them .87¢ each after Q.
I used 5 of my Qs there last week but used the 6 Qs from the inserts at Rite-Aid.  The RA price was $1.99(.13¢ more than the Weis price after Q)BUT this item also qualified toward the BPE so it was a cheap way to get my spending total up to $100 and that first $20 Plenti points Reward, in a week with very few Deals for cheap/free that included items counting toward the BPE.

There were Qs on coupons dotcom(NLA)for $2/1 Gear deodorants.  The R-A ad has a $2 off Gear deodorant coupon this week and this item is on sale for $3.49, which means by stacking these 2 Qs you can get that item for free PLUS get "overage" of .51¢ toward other items you purchase in the same transaction.  Don't try to buy the Gear Deo without something else to absorb the overage.

On son's card........

3 x Pantene Poo on sale $4=$11.97(Wellness discount was $3.99 ea.)
1 x Tide Pods detergent on sale=$4.99
2 x Cover Girl eye shadow BOGO=$5.08
2 x Gear Deo on sale=$6.98
2 x A&H detergent on sale=$3.98
SubTotal........$33.00

Coupons Used
1 x $5/3 Pantene ManuQ=$5.00
1 x $3/1 Tide pods ManuQ=$3.00(expired on 2/7)
1 x $2/2 Cover Girl items ManuQ=$2.00
2 x $2/1 Gear Deo IPQ=$4.00
2 x $2/1 Gear Deo In-AdQ=$4.00
2 x $1/1 A&H detergent ManuQ=$2.00
Coupon Total........$20.00

$33.00-$20=$13.00+.79¢ tax=$13.79 Total
I used Plenti points and earned $7 back in new Plenti points(for spending $15 in P&G products-Tide/Pantene/Cover Girl).

The detergents and make-up tracked toward my BPE total giving me $80.92 toward the $20 Reward.

Then I bought this stuff in 2 transactions(photo-ed together as it is easier).......


I then regrouped and bought 1 Arm & Hammer plus 2 more Gear Deos on son's card.
Total OOP was $2.09 which I put on a free R-A gift card(as my total was too low to use Plenti points).
This card now has tracking of $82.91 toward the BPE.

I bought the other 5 A&H detergents on my card, spending down $5.25 of my Plenti points.  I now have $75.11 tracking toward the BPE on this other card.

Nothing spent OOP for these trips and $107.62 worth of items brought home.

I may or may not be done for the week at Rite-Aid as I am still contemplating what I can buy for free/cheap next week that we can use that will get me to the $20 reward on each card before this program ends later this month.
