My Name is Josie and I live in sunny Southern California and I am a stay at home mom to three beautiful boys. We all know that living in California is a task of it's own and saving in California IS possible! I started this blog mainly to share all the awesome deals out there and show others how to save in any area of life. Even though you may make the commitment to be frugal and pinch your pennies doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice!
thanks a bunch!!!
for the gillette razors, could you buy the proglide and the mach 3, use the buy one gillette system razor get mach 3 free q and the buy one gillette system razor get $5/1 proglide q? the wording on that 2nd q is confusing to me.
Thanks!
How do we use the reward? For example, if I have a $2 reward & a $6 reward loaded on my card and purchasing a $4 item, will my item be free? do I pay $4-$2reward = $2? How does it work? Thanks.
you will pay $4-$2 reward = $2. The rewards are the same as before.
There’s also a $0.25 Video Values coupon for the Stride gum. For the Pine Sol deal I found a $1/2 Manufacturer coupon in one of my grocery ads a few weeks ago (Vallarta or Pueblo Ranch Market).
In this scenario Josie will we still get back (2) $4 +Up wyb $10 (limit 2)
Thanks! [I didn't watch the vv and would like to try one of these foundations]
Buy 1 Revlon Whipped Creme Make up $13.99
Use 1 $5/1 Revlon Foundation, Powder, Primer, Blush or Concealer, exp. 10/14/12 (SS 09/09/12)
pay: $8.99, get back ??
You will only get 1 $4+up. The deal is spend $10 get $4+up.
so it’s based on AFTER coupon total? Isn’t that unusual?
No, it’s before coupons. Like I said the deal is spend $10 get $4+up. Since you are only buying 1 at $13.99 you will only receive 1 $4+up (in this case you would only need to spend $7.01 more to get the 2nd $4+up). In Josie’s scenario you are spending $20+ so that is why you get 2 $4+up. $4 for every $10 you spend.
I meant $6.01.
ooooo, NOW I get it, duh!!! Thank you so much Gaby!
I found peelies for the iD gum BOGO
The loading to card after 6am the next day, is that for both printing and loading?
Yes. FYI for people that want to opt out from load2card. You can do it by using online chat on RiteAid website. It’s easy and quick.
Thanks! I just did it.. I was so much faster..
I wish I read that before I waited on hold for 1/2 an hour
Thank you! I did it online no problem
Thanks super fast
Why am i so confused on the “Gillette” razor deal??? Yes, I have to $4 Q. Though, I did not receive the Q Josie mentioned in the 8/26 P&G? My Q is different:
But one Gillette System Razor or disposable razor, get $5 off one Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor??? Can anyone shed some light? Thank you!
With this coupon you mentioned, you’d have to buy one and get one at $5 off. But the q that Josie mentioned above is on the same page (bottom right) of 8/26 P&G.
The one Josie mentions is squared and it has an orange header that reads Buy one get one and it has a picture of the Mach 3 razor. HTH.
hi, im confused too with the gilette deal, so what exact items should i get to take advantage of this deal? thanks!
I did this deal this morning. I bought 1 Gillette Fusion Pro Glide Razor $9.03 with gold discount and I bought 1 Mach 3 Razor $10.29. I handed over the BOGO free coupon so it deducted the $10.29 Mach 3 Razor. Then I handed over the $4 Pro Glide coupon which deducted $4 from $9.03 which made it $5.03 Out of pocket. I then received (2) $4 +up rewards (one for each razor even though one was free). It ended up a $2.97 moneymaker for me but pricing is different at each store and it depends if you have a discount or not.
My Mach 3 rang up $9.99 so that is all they took off.
I got a gillete proglide and a gillete match 3 and got my (2) 4RR free plus money MM
I was out of Pro Glide coupons– so I bought a Venus, priced 9.89 with silver discount, and a Mach 3, priced 8.99 with silver discount. Used a $3/1 Venus coupon and the BOGO free coupon to get the Mach 3 free. I received both UPs just fine. So, 6.89 – (2) $4 UPs = $1.11 MM for me. And I’m now sooo close to earning Gold.
Del Monte 4 pack fruit cup, 2 for $4 get $1 Up when buy 2 and use $1 off 2 MQ red plum 08/12, $1 each one.
Lysol Power & Free did not ring up $2.79 at my store. Once again, I called them on their Price Accuracy guarantee, the manager had to change the price on the 2 I was buying to the correct sale price and gave me an extra one for free. Problem with the modified price was that my +Ups didn’t print, so he gave me a $2 gift card. WATCH THOSE PRICES!
I’m actually on my way to get a price adjustment on those. they rang up $4.23 and no ups.
I just came back from my Rite Aid and the Lysol Power & Free Multipurpose Cleaner (the spray) was all that was marked $2.79. The toilet cleaner was marked and rang up almost $4!
I did the all purpose cleaner, everything rang up fine and I got the Ups.
I went to rite aid this morning the Lysol Power & Free didn’t ring, I told the cashier to look at the ad it clearly reads 2.79, she was willing to change the price but told me I had to email rite aid to get my +Ups, she was so mean….I walked away…without my Lysol
I was all ready to do the Stide ID gum deal and my Rite Aid doesn’t carry them
There is a Stride BOGO coupon on the Target website. It is a manufacturer coupon….so should be make for free gum at Rite Aid!
I looked and the ID was not part of the deal at my store…but the mystery flavor of stride(with the ? on the front) rang up 32cents! I guess it’s on clearance. Unfortunately, it did not print an up, so I will call in the morning cuz I should’ve gotten the up since it’s not an excluded flavor.
hello..does any one now if there a monthly ups on Lysol buy 20 get 5 ups?
Yes, there is! I saw a few marked at my store. I tried the Lysol disinfectants hoping it will double dip w/ the $3 ups wyb 2 but a no go. Only the smaller size qualified for the $5 up.
you can not use 2 man q for the razors, the wording on the coupons prohibit it.
There’s also a $2 RC coupon for Rembrandt toothpaste in the Oral Health coupon book, which stacked with MC and $1 UP would make them just 49 cents each! (They’re on sale for $5.49, not $5.99).
my store had it for $6.99- I should have checked the price- but the tag said spend $12 get back $5 Ups??
Grr! I purchased 2 preparation H for the pfizer rebate, there were q’s printed on the box, but I handed over the whole boxes to the cashier and forgot to pull the UPC’s for the rebate:( not such a bad deal w/gold discount, $2 box q’s, and SCR, but still not free for a non-needed item that I only bought to do a mm rebate. so my question is, does anyone have prep h boxes laying around the house that they’d be willing to send to me? I can trade you q’s for the UPC’s. I need 2. Thanks!
Anybody bought lysol Power&Free today? Did it ring up correctly?
Yes, even at a store that didnt have tags. Got the Ups as well.
My Bengay Qs kept beeping and I didn’t have time to ask for the manager because I was on my lunch break. I tried both the products in the suggested deal then the product that was pictured on the Q. Never worked
Is anyone else having trouble using coupons with the new system? I had about $25 dollars worth of ups on the wellness card. When I tried to use the coupons for the Gillette razors today the computer would not let me. It said I didn’t have enough purchases. The computer subtracts your UPs before accepting any coupons. My store manager eventually gave me the value of the coupons in cash but I doubt if they will do that indefinitely. The computer also is using the newer UPs on the wellness card preventing me from using some older paper UPs.
Your suppose to hand over coupons first then rewards card. This is why I opted out, its hard to keep track.
If you don’t opt out, you have to have them ring up the items, then your coupons, and lastly your wellness card.
