I Heart Rite Aid!

So many people think that drug stores are too expensive to shop at. I agree, but if you shop drug store "sales" or drug store "rebates" and combine them with coupons, those expensive prices soon go out the window, and discount stores look expensive!

Here's what I did at Rite Aid on Tuesday!

Purchased:
got2b hair lotion 6.99 (picked up one that wasn't on sale)
Playtex Tampons 5.29
Charles Worthington Shampoo 5.99
Schick Razor 11.49 BOGO (got refills too)
Total: 29.76

Coupons:
2.00 got2b
Schick BOGO (-11.49)
5/25
Total OOP: 13.20 with tax

Will receive SCR for:
4.99 got2b
4.00 Charles Worthington
2.00 Schick

Final Cost: 2.21 (My tax for this purchase was 1.93!)

Had I paid closer attention and gotten the correct got2b product, this would have been a profitable trip! I can't complain though. Thanks Rite Aid!

See Any Good Deals? I Do!

I found some great grocery deals this week, especially at Meijer. So consider these deals as you are traveling around and running errands this week. It may pay off to stop in for a few minutes just to snag these deals! Here's what is on my list.

Meijer (Remember, Meijer will only double TWO identical coupons per transaction!)

This is less expensive per roll than buying the eight pack and using the 0.25 coupon!

1.00 SB Peanut Butter Coupon
Final Cost: 1.00 per jar

Dynamo Laundry Detergent 100 oz
B1G2 free
I've usually don't go with off brand detergents, but I might be willing to try this, once. Has anyone else used it before? I would love to know how well it works.

Rite Aid Deals Week of 5/3/09

Not a ton of deals this week, but there are a few worth mentioning. The Johnson and Johnson baby deal just might be even better this week.

Bounty Basic Paper Towel Roll 0.99
0.25 P&G Coupon
Final Cost 0.75 per roll

Hershey's Bliss 9.6 oz 2.99

Johnson's Baby Products 1.99
1.00 In-Ad Coupon
Various Printable Coupon at www.johnsonsbaby.com
You should be able to combine the in-ad coupon with the printable for one free product, as the in-ad coupons states "one per customer". However you can use printables for the rest of the baby product.
There is also a 10.00 SCR when you buy 25.00 worth of Johnson and Johnson's products. I don't believe this needs to be in one transaction though. It can be throughout the month if you enter each receipt.
Final Cost: Varies

Always Infinity 28-36 ct 8.99

4.00 P&G Coupon
Final Cost: 2.99

There is a pregnancy inducing "something" in the water where I live. Every way you turn your head, there is someone with a big belly, or new baby! I love it! (As long as it isn't me!) Here's a deal from www.southernsavers.com for all the new mamas, or mamas to be.

Check out this post for information on how to get EIGHT Johnson and Johnson Baby Items (lotion, wash, oil, etc.) and a box of Band-aids for 2.50 at Rite Aid!
