This trip was interesting….
I have a terrible addiction to Pepsi and with the awesome Pepsi deal at select Rite Aid stores (You should check your ad because this is regional) I will have Pepsi to last me for the next year
I started with $16 in +Up rewards
Bought (6) Pepsi 12 Packs $3.33 ea
Used $16 +Up rewards
Pay: $9.13 Out of pocket
Got back (2) $2 +Up for purchasing 6 packages, Plus $5 +Up for purchasing $15 in Superbowl Promo items.
= $0.13 after +Up rewards!
So here is the mystery to this…….Above is actual ad that I got in my local newspaper. Below is the ad online. The above ad advertises that Pepsi 12 packs, while the online ad does not. So I’m not sure what to think! If this is NOT in your ad and you want to try this deal–let us know if it works for you. So maybe it ISN’T Regional? hmm..

Wouldn’t that be $.13 after +up back (2) $2 *up plus $5+up is $9 u paid $9.13 oop
@Ashley k – Yup, you are correct. Its tooo early!
Ya, I called, and Rite Aid is now sending me my Up rewards. They had the hardest time finding the right Ad because this while weird different ads thing!
It wasn’t in my ad online but did end up being in my actual ad. I bought the Pepsi’s but noticed they all expire next month so I ended up buying only 3 and 4 pringles to get the $5.00 up reward.
Double dip worked for me at Temecula hwy 79 store. But beware, in order to get the $5 UP, you must buy only Pepsi products (Pepsi varieties and Canada Dry Gingerale only). In other words, the Sunkist and rootbeer do not qualify for the Superbowl $5 UP, they only go toward the $2 UP deal. I know because I tried, not realizing it had to be Pepsi only. The manager was nice and let me return the 3 rootbeers and I got more Pepsi instead. The deal tracks, so my $5 UP printed out after he let me return/exchange the three packs.
I had $14 Ups to use. Total with tax and CRV came to $25.41 for me. I used my $14 Ups, paid $11.41, got back $5 UP and (2) $2 UPs. Nice deal. Thank you for posting this while I happened to be at a Rite Aid!
I also did the double dip deal today — I’m in Los Angeles. Looked online and saw that the deal wasn’t in my local ad (was horribly disappointed as Pepsi is my #1 vice!) but when I got to RA today, there it was in the flyer at the store. Very strange… but I was so happy, since I not only got my beloved Pepsi at a great deal, but also was able to unload about $20 worth of UP+s that I didn’t know what I was going to do with!
I bought 100 Lays Stackers for $100.00 (no tax or CRV) on these. I got back 6 $5 UPS and 1 $20 UPS reward. Making them .50 cents a can
Geez, no diet coke??? Do you know if the double dipping will work with a mix of the pepsi and m&m pretzels? at least I have coups for those.
@Peelie Picken Daddy –
Tad glutonous no? Unless you’re donating? But why would you mention your per can cost then. That’s a lot of chips…
@Peelie Picken Daddy –
Not sure how you get 6-$5 Ups when the limit is 2 per household/card. I guess you’re ‘stacked’ up for the Super Bowl. I did the double dip today with 3 each of Pepsi and Mountain Dew. THANKS Josie!
got 3 pepsi,4 combos,1 skiittles,1 gatorade; use 2 $1/2 combos rp last week, 1 $0.50 vv skittles, $0.50 vv gatorade . pay$13+ tax and crv. got $5up, $2up.
I was able to do this with different varieties of Pepsi and Mountain Dew.
@Mary -
Worked for me too. I bought 5 regular Pepsi and 1 Pepsi Max. I got back 2 $2 ups and 1 $5 up.
It works on Mountain Dew, Pepsi Maxx and Diet Cherry Pepsi because I got a mix of all those and got all the rewards back!
@Mary –
Thanks for this explaination. I did not get the $5 Up. I’ll go back tomorrow and exchange the non pepsi flavors.
