Rite Aid trip 5/17/11

$12.10 oop
saved $80.04





Rite Aid shopping trip 5/17/11


I’m having an off day, to much oop at both Rite Aid and CVS today, wow! Everything purchased is not shown it the photo because I needed to pick up some items for someone else and I stopped by and dropped off the 2 polidents, 2 poligrips and 2 disinfectant wipes before coming home. Since I did not do separate transactions my total oop as stated here is figured out with the reimbursement for those items, she does not use coupons and doesn’t even care what’s on sale and does not want to bother with ups savings, so any coupons used for those items were not counted toward the reimbursement and the items she needed actually helped me get some ups I wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. I started out today with $10ups and a $3 off $15 store survey coupon.


What I bought                                     Price             Coupons used

 2 Polident $4.49x2=                              $8.98        total of $6 worth of coupon

1 sensodyne                                        $4.49               $1.50vv+ .75
1 Aquafresh                                         $2.50              $1.50vv
Got $10 ups for doing this deal twice my friends items helped me here

2 Rimmel foundation $8.99+$4.49=    $13.48           $2+$2

My bad oop Cvs shopping trip 5/17/11


Wow!! A lot of out of pocket this week for me, my cashier was even surprised, she stood there waiting for me to hand her more coupons and when I didn’t have any more she said “wow that’s a lot for you, what happened?” I must admit, I didn’t plan well before heading out, which really shows how important having a solid plan is to saving at CVS. I actually considered skipping CVS this week, I didn’t really think there were enough good deals but I went anyway so I could post it on my site for my readers. I was almost to ashamed to post my trip, but my site is to help others learn and I hope this will show everyone how important making and sticking to a plan really is. I didn’t do very well at RIte Aid this week either, I will be posting that trip shortly as well. Started out with $16 ecb’s for this weeks CVS trip.

CVS sneak peak ad preview for 5/15-5/21


2 Rite Aid trips 5/10 & 5/11 .58 cents total. What a mess I made of these lol

.58 cents oop Rite Aid trips 5/10 & 5/11
I made quite a mess out of this one. lol

Started off with $11ups and a $3 off $15 survey coupon

.58 cents total on 2 trips to Rite Aid this week. Mistakes were made, by me, on the first trip yesterday, I don't know what I was thinking but I just had to go back an fix it today. I was trying to do the buy $20 get $10ups deal and for some reason I thought that Eucerin was part of that deal and it is not. This one Rite Aid here never puts up their signs so it can sometimes be confusing as to which items are the sale items. So today I went back to returned the 3 Eucerin items I bought and buy the correct items, the cashier told me that the manager was at the other CVS and it would be best if I went there for the return. I had no problem with that, I needed to go there anyway to see if that store had any Tylenol precise left since my closer store was sold out anyway. I explained to the very nice manager how I bought the wrong items for the deal and needed to return the wrong items and would be purchasing the correct ones today, I also made sure he knew that I did use coupons for the items being returned and circled them on the receipt. After a bit of thinking and figuring, (he wasn't sure how to do the refund with the coupons and all.) he did the refund for $15.71 and put it on a gift card. At one point I told him I would just keep the items because I didn't want to be so much trouble. He told me it was ok and that he would do the refund for the full purchase price and forget about the coupons used because there was no way to give them back to me and they would be getting reimburst for them anyway.

oh, and just a note here- all the Rite Aids around here are out of the Tylenol precise that ends up free with the coupon from the Sunday paper, so I checked at CVS and they have it buy 1 get 1 half off, so if you buy 2 and use 2 $5 Q's it comes out to be $1.68 for 2, I know its not as good as the Rite Aid deal being free but the coupons expire on Sunday and the Rite Aids here get their shipments on Mondays. So if you have those coupons and don't want them to go to waste check out the prices at your CVS.
