New Ad Rite Aid Trip $63.98 for $3.70 Got $3 in +UP’s back!

August 28, 2010 By Leave a Comment

I had 2 transactions all planned out. This is why I don't post scenarios... they NEVER work out. As I'm driving to RA it hits me... what if they are out of xyz? For some reason it did not occur to me that I would not be able to buy everything that I needed to full fill my scenarios.I normally do really rough sketches of what is cheap/free and the coupons I have and then piece them together at the store. It takes longer on the first day of the sale, but the next trips are a lot easier. It's also a lot easier to plan when you have the paper ad in your hand. For some reason my brain functions better when I have the ad in person. I love the previews. I really do. I even keep a deal book where I jot down the deals on the proper page with the date and store name, but it's hard for me to really plan without the hard copy.My store has been out of Nivea men since the last time they were on sale (was that 6 weeks ago?). This really messed me up! Still did okay!Transaction #1Olay facial cloths … [Read more...]

Ever Wonder is it is REALLY worth buying useless stuff for their coupon value? PROOF inside!

August 26, 2010 By 8 Comments

Remember all the free Zegerid from Rite Aid awhile back? It was when the Zegerid was completely free after in ad coupon and manufacturer coupon (maybe there was a video value coupon too?). Well I "bought" 8 boxes. Each time I "bought" a box a $7 +UP would print.Each time I "bought" a box it put me at the point where I could use a $5/20 coupon.Each time I "bought" a box I submitted a mail in rebate for $10. (I got all 8 at different addresses already)After I "bought" all of these boxes I sold them on ebay this week for $36.60.I took my mom on the shopping trips when I bought all the Zegerid. Mom was really worried about me "buying" all of this "stuff" I wouldn't ever use... I was able to "show" her that using coupons to buy stuff you will not use is a REALLY good idea.8 $5/20 coupons= $40 in "stuff" I will use!8 $7 +UP's to use to buy "stuff" I will use!8 $10 rebate checks that I can use for what ever I want... or $80 in cash in my checking account!8 boxes sold on ebay for $36.60Total … [Read more...]
