Rite-Aid, 11/21-11/28











This is what awaited me at the end of my shop!

We are on vacation this week in Park City, UT.  I debated whether or not to go out and do a shop this week while I was on vacation but I just couldn't resist the FREE Sonicare Essence (after Rite-Aid rebate and mail-in rebate) and the Planters Nutrition nuts.  We have a really old Sonicare model from 1998 and I was super excited to trade in that model for this newer one. 

I almost didn't make it to Rite-Aid this morning though because we had a huge snowstorm last night and the roads are steeped in snow (Park City received almost 2 feet of snow).  My sweet husband decided that we needed that Sonicare and he really wanted me to get my shop in because he knew that I had already prepared for it.  It really helps to have a supportive husband when it comes to couponing.  I went to yelp.com and found a Rite-Aid about 3 miles from our resort.  Awesome!

This is just a small shop as I really didn't want to spend my vacation in a store.  :)  There are a few other good deals out there.  Just go to Southernsavers.com if you need help with the rest of the items that are on sale.

NOTE: I just noticed while inputting the details for this shop that the $.40/1 Palmolive coupon is just for the 20oz. or larger size so it shouldn't be used on this 10oz. size.

NOTE: The Planters Nutrition Antioxidant mix did not ring up on sale for some reason even though the other Nutrition mixes all rang up on sale.  Just an FYI...

NOTE: The sled in the photo was just for effect.  LOL.

NOTE: I just looked on the Essence Sonicare box and the model number is HX5351/46; the SCR Rebate is for the 5300TB model.  I couldn't find this model at Rite-Aid.  Did anyone else have this problem?  Not sure what to do.  I submitted my receipts online and will see if Rite-Aid reimburses me $20 for the toothbrush and THEN I will open the box and clip the UPC for the mail-in-rebate.  Please report back here if you contact Rite-Aid about this issue or if you read something on another blog.  Let us know if you have an answer to this dilema in the comments section.  Thanks! UPDATE: Just looked at my receipt and it says that I purchased the 5300TB model so I guess I'm covered.  I'll report back here after the SCR rebate is approved. UPDATE: The SCR rebate is showing up correctly in my online account so go ahead with your purchase.

NOTE: Just noticed that I bought the wrong disinfecting wipes.  I purchased the clorox wipes and used the Lysol coupons.  :(  I'm pretty sure that the last time I checked the Lysol wipes they were about the same price so you can still do this deal; just make sure you pick up the correct wipes.  LOL.  BTW, this happens to me occasionaly (buying the wrong item).....especially when the product packaging looks the same.  I promise it will happen to you too if it hasn't already.

NOTE: I will receive back $30 in rebates for the Sonicare which means that the entire shop was a $17.69 moneymaker.  That's a pretty awesome deal!

  1. Shout out to your husband that was really great of him. I am fortunate to have one as well. A few nice deals this week. I spent most of my +ups into the sonicare deal. I love it when you can turn ups into cash.

  2. Seriously, I love that man.

    I spent several of my UP's on the Sonicare deal too. Still have $17 in UP's left for the 3-day sale coming up on Thursday. I may brave it again in the snow but we'll have to see. Thanks for your post Anonymous. :)

  4. Brandy, you KNOW I couldn't pass up that Sonicare. $.99 cents is just too amazing. :)

  5. Jason just pointed out that my math was wrong on the Sonicare. It is actually free if you use the $5/25 (not $.99 cents). Better and better...
