Who said that it was a slow week at Rite-Aid? Not me. :)

Fifteen transactions using fifteen $5/25 Rite Aid printables
TOTAL: $690.74
TOTAL AFTER SAVINGS: $0 (rolled UP Rewards and put tax on gift card)
TOTAL SAVINGS: 100%
Limit on Tylenol: The cash register limited me to 3 Tylenol Liquids. They said that they were afraid that I was going to start a Meth lab. LOL. You can only purchase 3 Tylenol liquids within a certain timeframe (maybe every 6 months)??
NatureMade Coupons: To obtain the $3/1 NatureMade vitamin Q go to RecycleBank and sign up. You need 100 points to print two of these $3/1 Q's. After you sign up go to the earn points section and sign up for Ebay green emails then search your house for your NatureMade vitamin containers. Go back to the "earn rewards" section of the website and look for the NatureMade banner and click on it. Input your UPC Codes (you can input up to five codes). This should give you enough points to get the $3/1 Q. Print twice and then go to Rite-Aid and get some vitamins. Combine this deal with a $5/25 transaction and you have FREE vitamins! UPDATE: My account is now showing that these coupons cost 200 points. Not sure if that is the same for other folks. They must have been really popular. FYI....the Kashi cereal that I purchased has codes inside the box that you can input on RecycleBank. Just look for boxes that advertise that the codes are in the box. So far it looks as though the Kashi Autumn Harvest box has the codes.
Online Rite-Aid Rebates: There is an online Rite-Aid rebate for the St. Ives and the Kendall antimicrobial bandages. I will submit the rebates twice (one for me and one for my husband through his work address). I will receive back $12.00 total.
Thanking your cashiers: I gave away 2 boxes of cereal to my cashiers.
Rainchecks and UP Rewards: Don't forget to get rainchecks if your store is out of an item. Make sure the rainchecks have the correct price and that the UP Reward amount is written on the raincheck. When you return with the raincheck they will adjust the price to the amount that you would have paid AFTER the UP reward. For example, if the Nivea Happy Lotion was on sale for $5.99 and it produced a $5 UP Reward then they will only charge you $.99 cents for the lotion. The registers cannot produce UP Rewards after the sale is over. Don't dismay if your store is out of stock. Just bring a copy of the ad with you when you shop and take a sharpie along and circle the items that are out of stock and then give it to the person at the register so that they can start working on your rainchecks as you continue to shop. Stop back by the register on the way out and get your rainchecks.
Not on sale in Northern California: None of the clearning products mentioned at SouthernSavers are on sale in our regions (i.e. glad trash bags, febreeze, downy, the 20oz. tide stain release, etc). The 18ct. Tide stain release is still on sale but the cleaning products are not. I checked with my Rite-Aid and they were willing to price match the item but said that they couldn't give me the UP Rewards. If you want your Rite-Aid to price match then you need to bring in a copy of the national ad which can be obtained at iheartriteaid.com. You can also go to this website to get a copy of the upcoming ads so that you can plan future shops.
RightGuard deoderants: If you didn't get a raincheck for the Right Guard well don't be dismayed. They will go on sale again the week of 11/14 and they will be B1G1 then. Just hold onto those coupons and use them the week of 11/14.
UP Reward not printing for One-Touch Lancet Device: UP Reward did not print for the One Touch Lancet Device; will call Rite-Aid tomorrow to have them send me the $5 UP. UPDATE: Called Rite-Aid at 1-800-748-3243 and they are going to send me the $5 UP; you will need your Wellness card number and your receipt when you call.
