Rite Aid Shopping Trip 10/10/09

Rite Aid, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Cost: $6.76 OOP: $21.25  RCB: $14.49 I did 2 transactions at Rite Aid and I tried to use the 20% coupon savings but it didn't work since everything was on sale of course! I had planned to do the Zyrtec deal but they were out of the eyedrops.  I asked the manager about it and she was very nice about writing me a raincheck and included the $8 coupon price--eyedrops and Zyrtec 30ct.   I then became creative and bought the following. 1 Transaction 1 Sam Goody Black Elastic 50 count 75% off clearance $1.24 1 Sam Goody Chunk Jaw 2 Piece 75% off clearance $0.99 I just found out that this goes towards RCB #102 towards $1.00 rebate when you buy 2. I might have to go back and buy…

CVS Shopping Trip 10/10/09

CVS, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Cost: $2.67 OOP $6.67 ECBs $9 Saturday was a busy day!  My daughter and I went to both Rite Aid and CVS. Here is a little information on why CVS shopping can be so worth it.  I got all of this for under $3 but you will notice that I got some products that I might not need.  Right now I have a pretty good stockpile of shampoo, conditioner, soap, nail polish and toothpaste,  but because these items were free or close to free it helped me get the diapers that I needed for really cheap!  I can take these products donate them, give them away, stockpile them or  use them for other purposes.  There are some great blogs that talk about other uses for products like my husband can…

Sam’s Club Membership – eValues

Sam's Club, Uncategorized
On the radio this week I heard of Sam's Club's new savings program called eValues.   There is very limited information about it on their website so I'm not sure exactly the type of savings that it will provide.  I didn't see any examples of products that I would save.  This program is only available to Plus membership which is a yearly cost of $100, Sam's Club guarantees that you will save that with this program. The idea is instead of coupons or rebates, several times a month Plus members will have offers on different items and the coupon is automatically loaded on the Sam's club card so when you check-out the price is "on sale".  Similar to a grocery store bonus card. I'm currently not a Plus member and with…
