Rite Aid Score!

9 March 2010 2,027 views 6 Comments

I did 3 Transactions at Rite Aid today! Mostly, it was because I wanted the free toothbrushes. Is that sick or what?

I’m not going to break everything down for you, but it was kind of a combination of things in this post at Fistful of Coupons.

The highlights:

FREE toothbrushes. (I had a BOGO, a MC, and there is a $1 rebate)

All the makeup was FREE. I bet it is close to $75 in makeup! I don’t usually use Cover Girl, but I needed new mascara and bronzing powder anyway, and a girl can always use a back-up eyeliner, right? And, is there such thing as too much lipstick? I don’t think so. There was a BOGO coupon in this week’s paper (I buy 4 papers @ .99¢ each) and Rite Aid is having a BOGO sale, which = FREE stuff!

The travel size Renu was FREE. We don’t wear contacts, but my BIL does, so maybe he can use it. Otherwise, I’m sure I can find someone to donate it to!

The John Frieda Root Awakening shampoo and conditioner was FREE, and I’m making $5 on it through Rite Aid Rebates. Hee, hee!

I paid .74¢ for the 4 big packs of Starburst. Think Easter baskets . . .

Okay, so what did I actually pay for? The diapers. I bought them for a friend, and they are size 3 with 31 in each package. So, diapers cost me $7.95 and there are 62 diapers, total, which makes the diapers 12.8¢ each. I don’t really know how much diapers cost at Costco, but I did a little searching online and people are saying 18¢ each for the Kirkland brand (size 3). Does that sound about right?

Um, so does that mean that I just beat Costco? Yes, I believe it does.

Oh, but I actually kicked Costco’s butt!! See, this little purchase today should net me a $10 Rite Aid gift card. I’m expecting at least $16 back from Rite Aid for rebates, etc.

HA! Oh, I love this coupon stuff. Man, I wish I had found it when my kids were in diapers! Think of all the money I could have saved!

Way to go on your Rite Aid score!! I went to Rite Aid today too! I had an old P & G that had the Cover Girl BOGO. Where did you find the one in last sundays ads? I didn’t see it in my oregonian, but may have just missed it. I am totally addicted to couponing and always love seeing your great buys.
Thanks for the info!

I honestly don’t know what insert it was in (maybe P&G?), but I do know that it was in the middle of two other coupons and they were all Buy One Get One Free. The other two were for different companies, though. And, I buy the Statesman, so . . .

Hello Kelleigh. I have managed to annoy the crap out of my husband w/ my couponing. Actually one of your posts got me into it and I have been a machine. I so look fwd to Sundays to match up the deals. I also got the pantene hair stuff, 6 bottles for 6 bucks. I found the freida on sale for 3.24, so I bought all of them. w/ a 3/1 coupon, 24 cents each. I killed at rite aid too. I did take a pic of my “stuff”. Yeah and thank you from me,not so much from my hubby!

I’m super jealous of the Covergirl coupon! I think it was in the P&G but mine only has a $2.50 off coupon. Maybe that will still get me something good though. I’m going to need more diapers before the month is up so I think I’m going to make a trip to Rite Aid today.
