Another Big Profit Day at RA

Rite Aid - finally found the accessory boxes!  Not every store carries these.  I found them in the seasonal aisle with a bunch of other Gracious Living items (laundry baskets, plastic totes, etc.)


First trip - 

  • Revlon Tweezers $2.49 and three emery boards $1.25 each, BOGO 50% off sale so two emery boards were $0.62 each, used $2 eye beauty tools RA coupon and four $1 coupons (6/24 or 7/29 SS) and got back two $4 UP's ($4 WYB 2 tools, Limit 2) = $9.02 profit
  • 2 Bob's Mints $5 each, got back three $3 UP's (one weekly deal, other two from monthly deal ending 7/31) = $1 or $0.50 each 
  • Used two $4 UP's, total was $2.03 

Repeated this same transaction on another card.  The mints are really tasty!  I left a bag at work to keep in a candy dish for students and I'll save the other bags for Halloween.


Third trip -

  • 2 Gracious Living Accessory Boxes $2.39 each ($2.99 reg price, 20% discount), will get back $5 (July SCR #86, $5 WYB 2, Limit 3, valid through today 7/31) = $0.22 profit
  • Snapple 6 pack $4.79 ($5.99 reg price, 20% discount), will send away for TMF peelie rebate = FREE
  • Visine for Contacts $4.23 ($5.29 reg price, 20% discount), used $2 circular coupon and $2 coupon (7/29 RP) = $0.23 *Counts towards spend $30, get $10 promo this week
  • Used two $4 UP's, total was $2.77
Fourth trip of the day - 
  • 2 Crest Pro Health Rinses $5 each (one 946 mL or larger, one 473 mL), used BOGO coupon (7/1 P&G) and got back two $3 UP's ($3 each, Limit 2) = $1 profit
  • 2 Gracious Living Accessory Boxes $2.39 each ($2.99 reg price, 20% discount), will get back $5 (July SCR #86, $5 WYB 2, Limit 3, valid through today 7/31) = $0.22 profit
  • Visine for Contacts $4.23 ($5.29 reg price, 20% discount), used $2 circular coupon and $2 coupon (7/29 RP) = $0.23 *Counts towards spend $30, get $10 promo this week
  • 2 Bob's Mints $5 each, got back three $3 UP's (one weekly deal, other two from monthly deal ending 7/31) = $1 or $0.50 each 
  • Used six $3 UP's, total was $4.02
If you can't find the accessory boxes right away, never fear.  There's another SCR for these in August (#44, $5 WYB 2, Limit 3).  I found the Oral Health coupon booklet in the store too.  There's a coupon inside for Crest Pro Health items that I'll use on another set of mouthwash.
Here's the UPC in case that helps.  Other folks (like Sheila) have found green ones too.
This is where I always seem to find Gigi nowadays, stretched out in front of the slider, gazing outside at the birds and bugs.  Thank goodness she has no interest in actually going outside, we'd never be able to use the door!

Make sure to look for the Oral Care coupon books at Rite Aid. I've heard them mentioned but finally saw them today. They are a little booklet like the allergy ones they had out a couple months ago. They have $1/1 RA Q for the crest and rinse. I used 2 in the same transaction without any problem!

Connie,
I did find those! I'm going to finish up the Visine deal and then get cracking on the mouthwash. RA is really keeping me busy lately!
