Rite Aid

I hit Rite Aid this morning. I also went into Walgreens, but I really had a bad experience and didn't even end up buying anything. We're just going to pretend that waste of an hour didn't happen.

Retails: $43.11
Total Spent: $15.72
applied for $10 Rebate
Adjusted Total Spent: $5.72
Percent Off: 87%

How did I do it?

  • compiled list from hip2save
  • coupons: $12, sales: $13.89
  • Gillette razor: regularly $9.99, on sale for $9, used $4 coupon from yesterday's newspaper insert, applied for $5 Rite Aid rebate, FREE
  • Pampers wipes: regularly $3.49, on sale $2.49 (needed wipes and did NOT feel up to getting to Walmart today. Darn that Baby R Us and their great wipes sale that sold out after like 10 minutes on Black Friday.)
  • Lindt chocolate bars: regularly $2.69, on sale for $1.50, used 3 $1/2 coupons, applied for $5 Rite Aid rebate, $.70 each (great stocking stuffers and christmas gifts!)
  • used $5/$25 Rite Aid coupon before I used any of the other coupons, making everything else even cheaper!

Or in other words...

Deal:

  • Razor: $9
  • Pampers: $2.49
  • Lindt: $15

Total: $26.49

Coupons:

Total After Coupons: $14.49 plus tax

Applied for Rebates from Rite Aid:

  • $5 Gillette Fusion
  • $5 Lindt chocolate (when you spend $15 on Lindt chocolate)

Minus Rebates: $4.49 plus tax. Nice.

Money Left for the Month: $-8.74. Oops.
