I went to Rite Aid tonight to finish fixing my prescription fiasco that I started last week. Way too long of a story to write about! I usually wait until the end of the week to do my Rite Aid shopping, but I wanted to be sure to use the 5/25 coupon before it expires on Thursday. I haven't seen or heard of another one coming out, but I will be watching. So here's what I did tonight for 0.39!
Here's what I bought:
Electrasol 20 ct 4.49
Tampax Pearl 40 ct 8.49 (to get my total above 25.00)
Skintimate Cream 6 oz 2.99
SaltAire 6.99
Mini Drop 30 ct 6.49
Total 29.45
Coupons used:
5/25.00 ***Give this first***
2.50 Electrasol
1.00 Tampax
0.75 Skintimate
1.00 SaltAire
1.00 Mini Drop
Total OOP 20.11
Will receive SCR for:
2.00 Electrasol
2.00 Tampax
2.24 Skintimate
6.99 SaltAire
6.49 Mini Drop
Which brings my final total to... 0.39!!! I paid for the 20.11 with my Rite Aid gift card which was purchased with prior SCR checks.
One tip I have is to try to make your filler items something useful if at all possible. I needed almost a 5.00 filler to hit 25.00, so I chose the Tampax for 8.49. It is definitely useful, and I noticed it had a rebate attached. I could have chosen something lower in price to make my trip profitable, but the tampons won out. Of course, if your filler only needs to be 1.00 or so, throw a pack of gum up, or a candy bar. Those are both quite useful too!
