Rocked it at RiteAid!

Today was a major score at RiteAid!  I started out with $4 in Up Rewards.  I spent $13.16 out of my pocket.  So I spent a total of $17.16 (between cash and Ups and including tax) and I now have $20 in Up Rewards to spend next time!  So they pretty much PAID ME $2.84 to buy:

6) bags of Halloween candy (good chocolate kinds - Snickers, Butterfinger etc)
4) Jergens 10oz lotions
4) Conair Hairbrushes
1) Blistex Lip Balm
1) bag of cough drops
1) Reese's (this was a filler so I could use Ups)

Now my success was very dependent on a glitch in the RiteAid computer system.  For some reason the Jergens lotion is ringing up as free, but when you buy 2 (both free) they give you a $5 Up Reward!  So I got four lotions and they paid me $2.50 per bottle to buy them!

I read up on all of the deals/coupon match-ups at places like this and this - they are some hard core couponers!  But I never would have know about better than free lotion if I didn't follow those message boards!

A Funny Little Something

 
So maybe I am behind the times but since when does Chuck Norris approve laundry soap?  Is he now a big stain fighter of some sort?!  It was good for quite the chuckle (to myself) in the laundry aisle of Walmart that is for sure!  And let me tell you it was a major selling factor too - WHO would pass up laundry soap approved by Chuck Norris?  Well not me!  I threw that Era soap in to my cart and chuckled my way to the register.  Maybe it is some big ad campaign, I don't know and I guess it did its job because it got me to buy it even if it was for the sheer ridiculousness of it!  So check your soap and make sure that you too are Chuck Norris Approved!
