I saw some pretty AWESOME DEALS in the Rite Aid Matchups this week (started TODAY in SoCal 6/29 – 7/5, and will begin on Sunday for everyone else 7/1 – 7/7).  I’ve missed out on the last several razor deals because either my store hasn’t unloaded the truck when I’ve gone, or the shelves have been cleared before I could get there.  I’ve been wanting to try out the Venus & Olay razors and I was determined to get them this time!  Of course my regular store hadn’t unloaded them from the truck (again) so I ended up going to (2) different stores.  Thankfully the second store was well-stocked!

Since I had to go to two different stores, I did (3) separate transactions.  I was already planning to do (2) transactions because I wanted (4) Tide.  If you’re planning to stack the (awesome) Rite Aid Store Coupons that we’ve seen in our inserts the last couple of Sunday’s, make sure you read the fine print that says ‘limit 1 per customer‘.  My store allows me to use more than one as long as I do a separate transaction (ymmv on this one).

I Spent a Net of $13.96 for everything in the picture and saved $90.20!  I apologize for the grainy picture.  One of my littles decided to THROW my camera and it’s now DEAD (the camera, not the little).  My hubby bought me a new one but it’s still in the box and I haven’t had a chance to figure out how to use it!  Anyway… Here’s what I did tonight:

Transaction #1

=$11.98 (FREE+$2 MM Crest, $0.50 Pantene & $1.50 Special K)

Transaction #3
BUY (2) Tide – $6.00 Each
USED: $2/2 Tide, Downy & Bounce RA Coupon (SS 6/24/12, x 7/7/12)
AND: (2) $1/1 Tide Detergent, exp. 6/30/12 (P&G 05/13/12)
Paid $8.00, Got Back $5 +UP Reward (Tide)
=$3.00  (My Tide worked out to be $2.50 Each for 4)

Of course I had +UPs to use from last week.  I left them out of the above scenarios to keep them clean for you.  I actually paid with $22.50 in +UPs making my net out of pocket cash ONLY $10.46 and I still have $19 in +UPs to play with.  You can definitely split up your transactions and roll your +UPs to keep your cash outlay low.

One thing to point out, the Rite Aid store coupon that I used for the Venus razors and the Pantene EXPIRES TOMORROW (6/30) so if you’re not in SoCal you won’t be able to get quite as good of a deal since your ad doesn’t break until Sunday.  If you ARE in SoCal and want to take advantage of these deals, make sure you get there before they close TOMORROW (Saturday, 6/30)!
