Rock'n Rite Aid

All I can say is WOW! The deals for Rite Aid are absolutely amazing this week. Someone has decided to go absolutely nuts on these deals with +up rewards. Seriously 'til all was said and done I managed over $10 profit! One minor draw back it's +up rewards mostly which means it has to stay in the store and it has an expiration date. I hate expiration dates, but what's a girl to do? On with the show!



First Transaction:
6 Johnson & Johnson Baby products @ $3.99 each = $23.94
3 Reach Toothbrushes @ $2.99 each = $9.97
Crest Extra Whitening @ $2.49
Total Before Coupons: $36.40

$5 off $25+ purchase
$1/1 RA VV Johnson & Johnson
6 $1/1 Johnson & Jonson
$1/1 RA VV Reach
$2.99 BOGO Reach
$1/1 Reach (forgot to grab a second one)
Total After Coupons: $18.41 (used $8 +up)

Received:
6 $2 +up for Johnson & Johnson
3 $2 +up for Reach
$10 +up for $30+ purchase of Johnson & Johnson products
$1.50 Crest
Net Transaction 1: $11.09 profit!

Transaction 2:
Scott Bath Tissue 12pk $6.99
4 Gain Dish Soap @ $.89 each = $3.56 (Rain check!)
2 Playtex 18ct @ $4.00 each = $8.00
Crest 3D White $2.99
2 Nivea creme tin 1oz @ $1.19 each = $2.38
2 Nivea creme tin 1oz @ $.59 each = $1.18 (BOGO 50% off)
Total Before Coupons: $25.10

$4 off $20+ purchase (would have used $5 off $25, but the gain was unexpected.)
$1/1 RA VV Scott Bath Tissue
4 $1/1 Gain Dish Soap (full $1 because of the way rain checks work?)
2 $2/1 Playtex
$1/1 Crest
Total After Coupons: $11.10 (used $10 +up)

Received/Will Receive:
$2 +up Scott
2 $3 +up Playtex
$1.50 +up Crest (bonus!)
$2 SCR Crest
2 $2 +up Nivea ($2 +up for every 2 purchased)
Net Transaction 2: $4.40 profit!

Grand Net: $11.09 + $4.40 = $15.09 profit!

I want to go back & get more of the Nivea creme tins. I'm not sure what the limit is. The ads don't tell you (they say one, but it prints far more) and the staff doesn't even know. It's all trial & error folks. I know I can get at least two more offers to go through for the Nivea. Wish I had enough coupons for the Johnson & Johnson transaction.

I might be able to pull off a diapers transaction, but I don't think I have the coupons. I don't need them but if I can get them free I would love to donate them. After that I would like a way to turn some of this store credit back into cash. My Out Of Pocket was $11.74. The +up are nice, but they can't be rounded down so I still have OOP expenses. I suppose I could just start loading up on the gum.
