My Rite Aid Plan – How I Score A Deal

Many of you ask how to get products such as toilet paper without breaking the bank.  So I thought I would give you an example of how I use the drugstores to my advantage. I was making my list so I thought I might as well show you how I play the drugstore games.  This week I plan on going to Rite Aid for sure as I have some +UP rewards to use this week .

I plan my trip based on what I need and what will make the most of my drugstore cash (in this case +UP Rewards).  So here is my plan.

So that means I will have spent $19.22 + tax out of pocket and I will get back $8.69 in Single Check Rebates and I still have $4 +UP Rewards to use next week.  I will also submit for the Hydro MIR to make the deal even better!!

If I get the full amount from the Hydro rebate I will have got everything for 54¢ + tax after all discounts are considered.  Not bad for 36 rolls of TP, a pack of diapers, toothpaste, shampoo, styler, a razor, shaving cream and some snacks

Remember this is just to give you an idea how I shop.  You might be able to get an even better deal with things you want/need.
