Holy Rite Aid Deals Batman. I can barely contain my excitement.
The list of deals is long and there are a ton of scenarios that you can work out.
It will do a separate post with scenarios. If you have any great ideas, share them in the comments. I just see so many ways to make money this week. The Edy’s deal is sweet (no pun intended), but make sure you see it in your ad on the last page. My head is spinning, plotting and planning. The UP Your Game promo is limit of 1 offer per household.
– There has been a change of dates in the SCR program. You can see the details here.
– You can see the new Rite Aid Video Values for February here.
– You can see the list of price and items in the Monthly Food UPR.
If I missed a deal, please leave it in the comments.
Staci W. says
REALLY confused and frustrated!!!
Sent the hubs to get the “free” ice cream & chips… of course the Stax were wiped out (and have been this ENTIRE week!), but Edy’s was restocked. Bought 4 Edy’s, plus the BOGO Vanity Fair Napkins (bringing my total to over $15) and NOT ONE Up+ printed!! I was expecting (3) for Edy’s and the $5 Game Promo.
WHY, Rite Aid, WHY?!?! >:(
Christy B. says
It’s been a while since I’ve chased after any deals. You all made me so excited about this week at Rite Aid that I went this afternoon, and wouldn’t you know I had a good experience. Did two separate transactions and both cashiers (I think one was a manager) were helpful and patient with my coupons. The manager was impressed with my transaction! Ended up spending about $13.50 (bought 2 Stayfree, 6 Stax, 4 Chex Mix, Afrin, Complete, 2 Fruit bars, 2 KY Jelly, 2 plates, Smuckers Jam, and a Cadbury egg), have $11 in UPS left, and will get a $7.99 rebate for the Complete. Thanks for inspiring me to get out and get some free stuff! :)
Shannon says
@Christy B.,
woohooo Christy!
Holly says
Goodness, there are a lot of comments! I read through most of these to see if this was already posted, but then I skipped the last ones, so I’m sorry if I’m repeating something.
You can also get a $2 off AMO Complete Multi-Purpose solution if you register at their website: http://completecomfort.ca/register.php. This is a better coupon and everyone should be able to take advantage of it since it’s on the internet. Best part: they don’t expire until December, so if you already bought your Complete, I’d hold on to this coupon for another sale.
Varsha says
If i had used a video values coupon earlier.Can i use the same coupon again in another transaction. Just wanted to make sure I am not making anything wrong :)
amritha says
@Varsha, yes varsha you can use it
Tracy says
Is there anyway to tell which manufacturer coupons can be used at the end of the transaction after most coupons and ups are used to eat up the rest of the tax so you are paying less than $1.00?? I have tried this and can’t figure out why sometimes it works and sometimes it won’t take the rest of my coupons.
Shannon says
@Tracy,
I am not 100% sure what you mean Tracy?
Dawna says
I am not sure what you mean either. Because, manufacturer coupons should never reduce the sales tax – because eventually, the store will be collecting the coupon value from the manufacturer. So, the value of the coupon is still considered part of the sales price for sales tax purposes and thus subject to sales tax. However, the customer pays the sales tax, not the manufacturer. At least that is the way it works in my state (California). That is why “free” is not free if sales tax has to be paid.
Store coupons and rewards coupons however do reduce the sales price of the product and thus the sales tax according – the store never collects any money later, so no sales tax is due on the value of that coupon. However, some store coupons are actually manufacturer coupons in disguise and vice versa – you have to study them very carefully.
The total of manufacturer coupons and store coupons cannot exceed the total sales price, before sales tax. Thus if you use store coupons first, there might not be enough sales price left to use the manufacturer coupons.
If you have unused manufacturer coupons remaining at the end of the transaction, you have defeated the value and purpose of stacking and may not find another deal on which to use tem later. If you have store coupons and reward left at the end of the transaction – you can use them on the next transaction – assuming they haven’t expired.
To get the best couponing value and pay the least out of pocket, this is usually most beneficial to present coupons and rewards in this order:
1. Any $ off $$ store coupons or rewards ($4 off $20, etc)
2. Manufacturer coupons
3. Other store coupons and rewards (soonest to expiree first, then highest values)
I also have found it best to hand the coupons to the clerk 1 or 2 at a time. I’ve found that if I set them down on the counter all at once, even though stacked in order, the clerks will often ring up the coupons out of order, before I can stop them. Under some circumstances, that can result in more out of pocket cost to me.
Diana says
It is a good week… But, I get so frustrated never being able to get the items I want. It seems like I plan and then it is useless. I am just spinning my wheels and have to go back time and time again for my rainchecks. A lot of times by the time the item is available my coupons have expired.
ex: I tried to get the BOGO vitamins today….the first day of the sale….How can they not have ANY of the smaller bottles just the $25-$40 ones? It took me a long time to track down my coupons, make the list of what I needed and match them up with the vv. All for naught…nuts! And that was to got towards that $10 or $20 UPR.
I hope this came out the right way. Does anyone else encounter this or have any suggestions as to how to make it better? I have tried shopping on different days of the week…Sun. Mon. and Sat. They said they get their trucks in on every other Friday…
TIA
Shannon says
@Diana,
For the vitamins, last week was a huge Nature Made week – big moneymakers. So if they got more in, I would imagine they would be purchased quickly. I suggest asking when the truck will come in to restock and maybe you can go that day.
Shannon says
Oh the every other Friday is the issue!
renate parks says
@Diana, I hear ya, sista! I am so frustrated with RiteAid not having the advertised items, even on the first day of the sale! Then you have to go back several times to see if they got anymore in, and haven’t sold them yet! They just have such great deals, I can’t pass them up. I just try not to make special trips anymore, that way I won’t get too disappointed.
BTW, I had trouble last year when they ran the sonicare promo. I mentioned it to the manager, and she took my name and number in case they got more in. Well, she ended up calling another store and found one for me! Too bad I never got the message. I ended up getting lucky, though, and finding one on the shelf. I guess you just have to remember that beggars can’t be choosers, so to speak. Happy shopping!
Molly says
@renate parks,
I was at RA when they opened yesterday and only grabbed a couple things (didn’t want to be late for church!). I went back afterwards to finish the rest of my list and every.single.thing. on it was gone. It was there in the morning, because I did a quick walk through the store to see what the stock was and they had plenty of everything. So in FOUR hours, they had no more stock of the *hot* items.
Jonna says
@Molly, I was at Rite Aid 1st thing Sunday morning and I witnessed what I refer to as an “abuser”. She complained that the carts weren’t big enough…..well I know why. Her 1st transaction contained numerous, and I mean numerous Lays and Chex Mix. She then had a 2nd transaction done, I didn’t notice what she had as I was busy making sure I had my coupons ready. She left the store with her cart piled high. I purchased my items and I wasn’t sure the Afrin deal was going to work so I only bought one. Sure enough I got the sale price and the UP reward so I told the cashier I was going to put my bags (2 total) in my car and come back to get one more Afrin. When I came back into the store here was the same lady back again filling up another cart load. I have realized that if I am going to get my shopping done and still find some of the deals I am going to have to be at RA at 7am Sunday before someone else clears the shelves. I wish Rite Aid would put more limits on items to keep some of the items available for others. As with anything, people will find away around it and continue to ruin it for others. Sorry your shopping trip didn’t work out.
Angela W says
@Jonna,
YUCK. That is rediculous!
Chris Shaw says
@Diana, I don’t know if this helps, but I am finding that some items, especially pharmacy items like vitamins or Motrin, are often on the end of some other aisles. Sometimes back near the pharmacy or sometimes on an end stack near the food. It seems that they pull out a few items and put them in logical locations and every now and again, especially on the first day of a sale, those areas haven’t been shopped out yet.
I am just as frustrated. I got lucky today and got the Stacks and Chex mix and was surprised they were even there – but I’m not greedy so I didn’t clean them out like other people do.
Hope that helps.
Shannon says
@Chris Shaw,
great tip.
Jennifer says
I just came across a $15 mail in rebate form for Nature Made products when you purchase $30 (while organizing my coupon inserts). It does say AFTER coupons and discounts and not including taxes. You can get an online submission form @ http://naturemaderebate.pmcprograms.com Purchase must be made bewteen 1/16/11 and 2/20/11
krissi says
@Jennifer, I think you mean $5 mail-in rebate.
Jennifer says
@krissi, You are right! Oops! I can not tell you how many times I looked at that and read it as $15!! Bad thing is I already wear glasses and they are new! Thanks and Sorry!
Karen says
The coupons for the Coricidin and Afrin aren’t active in the links. Do I need to use a specific zip code?
Kristina says
Two things –
*I got a 2nd Heart Healthy $10 UPR unexpectedly today – whoohoo!! So, at least for me, they are printing more than 1. It even said “2nd” on it. I got my first one last week after doing the vitamin deal.
* I can’t thank you enough for doing this for us. I used your list feature for the first time and it made things so much easier! My family, as many others, is going through a very difficult time financially with job layoffs, etc. You have helped me feed my family treats I never would have been able to do and also give us the essentials (contact solution, fever reducer for my baby, etc). And, you’ve made what could be a very stressful thing (shopping with no money!) into a fun thing (getting all of my deals!).
I just spent less than $2 out of pocket for over $100 worth of products, got $57 UPR and a $7.99 SCR coming my way.
THANK YOU!!
Shannon says
@Kristina,
Oh Kristina, its my pleasure. If you cannot tell, I really enjoy this. I am a real couponer, I do the deals, for the same reasons as all of you. I totally love it and wish I could spend even more time covering more stores!
Claire says
Generic question that I couldn’t find anywhere: Are the video values coupons stackable? i.e. If I watch a bunch of videos that are worth $X off my next transaction, will ALL of them really come off of my next transaction, no matter how many I accumulate? Just trying to figure out if a scenario I am coming up with is a good deal. Thanks!
Rose says
@Claire, yes, you can stack Jan. VV with Feb. VV.
Chrys says
@Claire, Hope this is answering your question, I used my $4 off of $20, $2 off, and 2 or 3 $1 off vv all in one transaction
Holly says
@Claire,
That’s how I’ve always done it. That being said, I’ve read on another forum that a shopper was having an issue with this (her store said she could only use one per transaction) so your mileage may vary. Just have a back up plan if it doesn’t work out.
Katelin says
Keep an eye out for manufacturer coupons attached to bags of Chex mix. I saw a $0.50 off coupon on bags of traditional Chex mix in one store near me. What a great week to stock up on Super Bowl party treats!
Shannon says
@Katelin,
nice!
Chris Shaw says
@Katelin, There was one in today’s coupon inserst – I got $1.00 off 2 bags.
Sweetfairy says
I went to RA at 12 midnight for Neuragen gel. But they don’t have it!!!!!!! In the morning I went to 3 other RA stores but didn’t find it. I asked managers in each store and everyone replied that they didn’t get it. I am worried for my $10 coupon, it expires tomorrow and the store will have new delivery on wed. Anyone else got this item?
Jay says
My store in NH had many of this item. I talked to corp the other day about the $10 Walgreen Neuragen coupon (in the Diabetes and you mag) and they said the stores should accept it even though the coupon states, “only redeemable at Walgreens”. They did say however that the store holds the final say in whether to accept the coupon or not. It is a man. coupon which has redemption instructions. The store mgr. at my store said that if it scans then they will accept it. It did scan. Not sure if you have a walgreens nearby, but if you do you could toss your expir. coupon(s) and use those instead.
Holly says
@Jay,
Which Diabetes & You magazine? I haven’t been to Walgreen’s in a couple of months; is this magazine currently out?
krissi says
@Holly, It is the current magazine. It says “Holiday 2010/Winter 2011” at the top. They didn’t have them out at my Walgreens, but I asked and they put them out for me to take. Thanks so much for the tip, Jay. I took the coupon and walked right up to the Rite Aid manager at my store. I explained that I had the coupon and asked if she would take it. She scanned the item and then the coupon. No beeps, so she said yes, there was no problem. I love my Rite Aid!!!!:)
Brittney says
Thanks for putting this together every week!
Today before coupons my total was $88 then after coupons and UPRs the subtotal was $1.07 (I paid with a gift card) and got back $53 in UPRs!! Thanks again!
tina says
@Brittney,
Brittney, I would LOVE to see your deal details!
Cassa says
What did you get that you did that great?? @Brittney,
Holly says
@Brittney,
Wow! Wonderful job! What did you buy (and how did you do it)?
Rachel says
I love your shopping list feature and the way you can add items and notes!! Awesome :)
Amanda says
On the Glad Trash bags, does it include the Force Flex?? The ad says Drawstring or Quick Tie….
Chris says
@Amanda, I had the cashier scan (w/ my Wellness card) the force flex because they weren’t signed as being on sale), and they rang up at the $8ish price, not the sale price. HTH :(
renate parks says
Does the 3.99 price include the forceflex Glad trash bags? Cause that’s what my coupon is for. It wasn’t included at Wags a few weeks ago. Thanks!
amanda says
@renate parks, it does not include the Force Flex (at least, my store didn’t have it signed as being included)
Chris Shaw says
HELP! i just ran into a bunch of issues at Rite Aid that I didn’t see coming. Can anyone help me make sense of it – any of you guys have this experience?
1. I gave them 2 printed coupons and they said that Rite Aid policy was that all Internet coupons had to printed in color. This is Rite Aid policy. I have never heard this before – my pictures on the coupons were viewable, just not in colot.
2. Last week, the manager gave me a rain check for Motrin PM and included the UPS on the rain check. I know some other Rite Aids only give you the discounted price or the adjusted price but this Manager said he offers the UPS so I assumed that would be fine – but when I went to redeem the rain check – they said they couldn’t do that, they had to adjust the price down to a $1.00 each (which is what they would have been after the UPS) and then refused to take my $6.00 off 2 for the moneymaker. I thought this was a totally legit transaction but I got grief. Is there a rain check policy? Can they force the UPS to print and maybe the cashiers didn’t know how to do it but the manager does?
3. I just printed a bunch of Video Value coups today – high dollar one – and they all had expiration date of 3/26/10. The cashier pointed this out to me so I couldn’t use them. What’s up with this?
So frustrated. Today was not a good trip and I went out just to use my UPS because they were expiring today.
Anybody with any ideas or feedback would be very much appreciated.
Sally says
@Chris Shaw, 1. No, that is not the policy and you should ask to speak to the store manager. If they refuse, I would call 1-800-Rite-Aid to complain and they will inform the store of the error (hopefully?).
2. I think the store is right, unfortunately. That is the drawback with a +UP MM deal where the MQ exceeds the net price of the item after +UP, a rain check doesn’t do much good. It does get you the item for free once the coupon is adjusted down, it just takes away your moneymaking part, though. :(
3. Call customer service again. I have not heard of that happening, I just printed a bunch tonight and all were 2011.
Chris Shaw says
@Sally, Thanks for the feedback. I would have totally been fine with the rain check adjusted down – it’s just that the manager led me to believe it would work fine. Since CVS can do this and force print EB, I figured this must vary from store-to-store policy. Plus, had I known that this would not have worked as a moneymaker, I would have tried some other right aids to see if I could find them before the sale was out. I have to say, it is frustrating that the stores get bought out before you can ever get there. I know there are people buying every last one as soon as they open on Sunday morning and it’s frustrating. I do think Rite Aid should have a limit for the freebies.
Chris says
I’m sorry you had such trouble. I hate when that happens. I checked my new VV coupons and in the fine print at the bottom, 3 of them do have 3/26/10! Must be a misprint, because in bold at the top it says “Valuable coupon/ Expires 3/26/11”. I hope they go through okay when I use them today. Thanks for the heads up, at least I won’t be caught off guard.
Tiff says
@Chris Shaw,
I actually work at rite aid as a supervisor and have manager authority to modify things and had a customer with the same rain check and $6 off 2 coupon. I marked them down to $3.00 so the coupon could be used then just wrote out two rain checks for $2.00 since they can’t be printed after the sale week. Unfortunately it varies from store to store and the manager can make the best decision that they think is acceptable in some situations. Same thing with the freebies lately. There is no limit listed in our ads so people today were just buying lots of the same item and having us run out on Sunday. Managers do have the power to limit but mine doesn’t for some reason and never orders enough product. I wish he would or that rite aid would start limiting because through watching coupon shoppers I myself have become “obsessed” if you will with couponing, haha, and wish managers would prepare more for these big freebies because it ends up being more difficult with all the rain checks and things in the long run. But anyway I’ve been following this blog every week although I know the deals pretty well ahead of time but will help when I can because unlike some of the employees in my store I am not annoyed by coupon shoppers because I am one of them :)
Holly says
@Chris Shaw,
1. This is definitely not Rite Aid policy. Next time you visit that particular Rite Aid be sure you have a copy of their coupon policy handy.
2. Unfortunately that’s the way that Rite Aid rain checks work. That being said, the manager CAN force the machine to print UPR under some circumstances. Last month some of my UPR didn’t print for an item that was on sale; thankfully I checked my receipt before I left the store and the manager printed my UPR. So make sure you check your receipt after every visit!
3. I’ve had some of their coupons do this, but they always went through checkout without beeping so I just roll with it. I’d definitely call customer service about it.
I’m sorry you’ve had such a poor experience at Rite Aid. I have consistently found them to be the most coupon-friendly chain in my area. Please don’t give up on them; hopefully most of these issues can be straightened out.
Michelle says
Okay, please help me out. Am I understanding this right? If I want to take advantage of one of the SCR deals I have to wait until Wednesday? If I wait until next Monday or Tuesday then the item won’t be on sale anymore, making it free?
Shannon says
@Michelle,
No — the SCRs changed at the beginning of the month. So they will be running Weds – Tues instead of Sun-Sun – meaning any month longs.
Please double check your ads for dates on all the SCRs before you do them as well :)
Molly says
So…if I’m reading this right – if you buy 6 Edy’s, you would get $17 in UPR? $2 for each and then a bonus $5 for buying $15 worth?
Now THAT is a deal. Even without the extra $5 UPR it’s a good deal…
Sally says
@Molly, Yes! You would get 6 for $0.94 + tax. Good luck finding 6 at one store, though! I’d suggest combining with some of the other +UP Your Game items unless you can really eat 6 containers of ice cream before it gets freezer burn (my family wouldn’t!).
Emily says
@Molly, There was PLENTY of Dreyer’s at my store today. I’m in CA and our sale started yesterday. I bought 5 Dreyer’s and 1 Lay’s stackers and all 5 Dreyers Ups printed, along with the $1 for the Lay’s and the $5 UP for spending $15. 5 free ice cream and 1 free chips! Our family will have NO problem going through 5 containers before they go bad. I’m not so sure that’s a good thing. . . .=)
Molly says
@Molly,
Thanks!!
My daughters bday party is next week, so this was PERFECT! I headed in this morning and bought 5 Edy’s and 5 Lays Stax – total was $19.94 and I got $20 in UPR. Everything printed – including the $1 on the Lays, even though it wasn’t advertised in-store. Woo Hoo!!
Sandra says
@Molly, I got to my store Sunday morning and they had tons left. I bought 5 tubs of ice cream and 1 stax so it all ended up FREE!
R says
Buy 2 Prilosec 42Ct. $24.99 each
– $8/2 from 1/30 PG
Pay $41.98
Get 2 $7 +UP
Submit for $25 rebate
= $2.98 for two.
Right?!?
Claire says
@R,
I thought I read a FAQ on this site saying that only 1 UPR will print per transaction, so only one $7 UPR will print. Can someone else confirm?
Shannon says
@Claire,
It depends on the limit of the item not necessarily just one up per item.
krissi says
@Shannon, I bought 2 and got 2 $7 UPRs I was VERY excited about this find. Thanks so much for pointing it out, R. I think that $3 for 2 42 counts is amazing!!!!!!!
Raina says
Figures they’d put the Aussie on sale now, I just bought it last week to use my $10 UPR for more than $4. That always happens to me! Always makes me want to hold onto the coupons for a better deal! :)
Melissa says
The $2/1 off Glad garbage bags printable is no longer available ” no more prints available for this campaign” and wouldn’t you know I used my $3 off coupons at Walgreens thinking $2.99 after coupons was a great deal! boooooo
Valerie says
I did the same but used only 1, i can’t remember though was it $2.99 with the $3 and the one From the January book too or just the $3 coupon made it $2.99?
Maria says
No more prints for the glad bags :-(
Anne says
also, there is a $3 VV for the l’oreal preference hair color…YAY RA!!!
Shannon says
@Anne,
cannot use in ad with the video values.Both coded 49.
loretta says
@Shannon,
there’s a 3$ coupon off any L’Oreal haircolor on their website with sign up you can print 2 per computer, there’s also 1$ off any L’oreal and a $2 off any cosmetic (lip?) they printed for me as close as Wednesday (i think)
http://www.lorealparisusa.com
just click special offers
Jenifer says
Question: when you post an SCR deal, is it good Sunday-Tuesday or Wednesday-Saturday now? Or, are they just all mixed up that some are good Sun-Tues & some Wed-Sat? Confusing, but I’ll deal with it for all of these good deals! Thanks!!
Jason says
Is there a limit on the Colgate toothpaste UPR?
Caroline says
@Jason, I bought 4 Colgates this morning and got 4 UPRs….hope that helps!
Tiffany T says
I do not know if it is because this past week was SO slow at RA or it is just me, I am so excited for tomorrow morning!!!!
Kristin says
Does anyone know if the bigger size Benefiber (the 125-dose) will also qualify for the Heart Healthy UPR? It’s listed for $19.99 with a $5 UPR…so I think it’s a little bit better of a deal to get that one vs. (2) of the smaller $10.99 48-62 dose bottles. As long as it also qualifies for the Heart Healthy promo, that is…
Right?
carilyn says
There is a video value coupon for the preference hair dye. You could use that once to make for a $2.99 hair dye.
Shannon says
@carilyn,
You cannot use the IN ad coupon and the Video Values for this together. Both coded RC49
carilyn says
@Shannon, The video value is better than the in ad coupon. So you could get 1 box for $1.00 cheaper.
Shannon says
@carilyn,
yep better deal.
Bonnie says
How do I print the shopping list once I have checked the items that I would like on it?
Shannon says
@Bonnie,
There should be a box on your right hand side of your screen with all your items. Do you see that?
Bonnie says
@Shannon, Strange, it’s not on my desktop computer, but I do see the box on my laptop! I will just save it and send it over. Great feature, my first time using it with all of these great deals at RA this week. Super excited about the ice cream since I just got a brand new freezer :) Thanks so much for the quick reply, love your site!
chris says
@Bonnie,
Hey Bonnie, on my desktop, although I’m not trying to be insulting, the print button is off to the right on the pop up screen after you hit print on the sidebar list…. so you can scroll over to the right just a bit, and the print button is at the top right. HTH :)
Donna says
HI all!
When you say limit 1 for viactiv…what do you mean exactly? Will you only get +UPRs on one or will only one count towards the healthy heart +UPR? Ditto for the colgate and afrin. OR are you saying that you can only get one healthy heart +UPR but could, say, buy 8 viactivs to get it?
Shannon says
@Donna,
The limit 1 is for the heart healthy upr. The others are not limit 1 as far as I know .
Donna says
@Shannon,
Wheew ok! That is great. No need to modify my plan then :)
coupons says
How do you know what the monthly upr’s are? Do you have access to a list?
Shannon says

Jan says
I have a randon question…
Do you know if anyone has any updates on the RenPure Organics shampoo “Try Me Free” or the Sonicare Toothbrush rebate? Have they received it? How long it took? Any problems? Thank you so much!!
Shannon says
@Jan,
Jan, I didn’t do the Soniccare and my RenPure took months and months and months. Probably 3.
danielle says
@Shannon, I never even received my rebate from the shampoo. Heard many didn’t :(
Tami R. says
@danielle, I did the Renpure at two different addresses and they both did come, eventually. But it did take a long time.
Jan says
@Shannon, Thank you so much for your replies. This helps me a lot actually.
pamela says
I got my sonicare rebate yesterday. I sent it off the first week that rite aid had their sale. Not sure if that helps;)
Vik says
@Jan,
Just got Renpure rebate today…It took approximately 3 months
Erin says
@Vik, I did a Renpure deal from CVS for Black Friday and just got it about a week or two ago.
Erin
Janice K. says
@Jan,
I got my Renpure within weeks. I was impressed!
K says
@Jan,
I just got my Renpure rebate in the mail yesterday. I can’t remember when I bought it/sent in the form though. Must have been anywhere from around Thanksgiving to before Christmas….
Brianna says
@Jan,
Brianna says
@Jan, I definitely got my renpure rebates but they did take quite a bit of time.
Julie says
@Jan, My sonicare rebate took 2 months to receive (sent it on 11/30 and got it 1/26). Yep, I’m a big dork and keep track, but it really helps when you do a lot!
Jenna says
@Jan, I just got both on friday, so maybe yours are coming???? ;)
Liv says
@Jan, Hi Jan, My Sonicare rebate came about 60 days, and the Renpure took 7 weeks.
Sally says
Been clipping coupons all week in anticipation, can’t wait! Too bad we have nursery at church in the morning, but I’m gonna try to steal away and hit the 7 AM store before church. That’s dedication! (or addiction, shhh!)
M says
I’m so disappointed our store doesn’t open til 10a. I am the Nursery Coordinator at church so I HAVE to be there until closing time! Hoping to get out quickly and that getting there a few hours late won’t hamper my plan either! I am right there with you!! :-)
Bethany says
@M, Sally & M, as someone who uses the nursery at my church every Sunday, I would like to say thank you for your service. Especially since it means putting the deals on hold!
Sally says
@Bethany, Just found out that my 7 AM store is now an 8 AM, so I’ll have to wait it out, too. I’m not too worried, I have found almost every single freebie item still in stock most weeks in the afternoon. However, I have many stores to chose from. Luckily my 2 favorites have been stepping up their sale item orders lately, can’t complain!
M says
Thank you! I truly appreciate that! I honestly don’t usually hear people express gratitude for nursery workers, though with 2 little ones of my own and one on the way, I know what a relief it is to be able to sit for A WHOLE HOUR and listen to AN ADULT SPEAK! :-)
Really glad that you get the time to be refreshed each week!
(Just whisper a prayer for me that the deals won’t be gone by the time I go!) ;-)

Is there a limit on how many monthly rewards per product? For example, I would like to buy about 6 Lays Stax and maybe 5 or 6 Chex Mixes and Hormel chilis. Will I get a $1 UP for each one I buy or are they limiting the UPS this month?
Jay says
I was watching a blog where the writer bought some 10-15 packs of pens last month and received the ups each time. Personally, I bought 3 staxx and ritz this morning and the ups printed for each.

There’s also a Neuragen printable for $5 for those of us who weren’t lucky enough to get the $10 insert coupon. I forget where it’s from… Smartsource, I think?
Shannon says
I think that is for a different product.
melissa says
@Shannon, Right you are! It says .17 oz instead of .28.

@melissa, a little laughable tale…last night, I went to the office supply store to get some stuff to build a coupon binder. I was so excited when I got done. I got almost all my coupons out and did alot of purging and then started to orgnaize my binder. I didn’t throw away my coupons, but, just set about 2-1/2 months worth that I purged to the side for the recycle bin. Got up this morning and saw the post about the Nueragen $10 coupon in 12/5 RP. I went into a panic because I didn’t have the coupon to begin with, just the printable. Wouldn’t you know, I went back and went through every coupon that I set aside for the recyclable pile. It took over 2 hours and I still didn’t find it. I am glad I looked though because if I didn’t, I would have been on my mind.

@3gakids1521, I just moved to the binder and baseball card holders – LOVE IT!!… I had lots of those accordian things and it just got too crazy. What I do now is cut the ones I use (food/beauty etc) and put into binder – the rest I put in a zip baggie or folder (so I have all the “junk” coupons that I dont think I’d use) in a baggie w/ the date. That way I keep them in case they work out for a deal I can go back. Hold them for a month or two then throw away/give to someone else. Seems to be an easy way to keep them (just in case). Or you can cut what you need and save the whole insert and date that?

There is a VV coupon for this month for 50 cents off Chex mix. That will make the Chex mix free after the UP reward :) Apparently RA is trying to make all of us gain weight with the deals on snack food this week! Next month they will probably have free after SCR or UPs weight loss supplements lol
Shannon says
thanks for the update Trista!

@Shannon, Also, Safeway shoppers would have a $1/1 Chex Mix coupon from the Joy of Football coupon book, making this a moneymaker! :)
