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!
For the Dove deal could you use (2) $1/1 hair care product, $2/2 RA VV coupon, AND the B1 shampoo and conditioner G1 styling product free coupon??
Thank you Josie!
Josie, I know you get paid for this through ads and stuff, BUT I still appreciate everything you post on this site. Your hard work not only gives you an income, but it helps others keep their income as well. THANK YOU!!
yes you can if you buy 1 shampoo and 1 conditioner
A slow week at Rite Aid and I have lots of +ups I need to redeem.
Me too
I’m laughing at myself since Thursday night I thought it was gonna be a slow week but by Friday afternoon the week started looking good. With the moneymakers on Loreal, Sinful Nail Polish, Halloween makeup, and all the freebies it was a good week at Rite Aid
the similasan deal…. should pay $6 after coupons and recv 5+ups, should be .50 each, right?
yup! did this deal this morning =)
Hi Josie, If you do the Dove Body Wash Deal for Men 3 times, that puts you over $20 so you can use Spend $20 Get $5 Unilever on Saving Star
Makes it a Money Maker
Thanks!
Gold members who printed both the Schick disposable B1G1 free Q’s and the $6/2 Q’s can do this deal:
Schick Extreme 3 (mens were $8.99 and ladies were $9.49 at my store)
buy 4 at $8.99 – 20% = 7.19 each
use 2 B1G1 free Q’s, one $6/2 Q, and 4 $3/1 in ad Q’s (if your store allows, mine does)
= 3.62 MM (covered tax and made it a $1.39 MM for me this morning)
if u got a email from Rite Aid that say Halloween saving, there is $1/2 AlkaSeltzer RA coupon making them $ .50 each one, expire tomorrow.
so i could do this for the libman deal?
buy one each tornado mop & angle broom = $25.78 (+tax)
get two $3, one $6, one $5 +ups
Can you explain were you got the $6 and the $5 up reward from?
there is a monthly +up for the tornado mop ($6) and angle broom ($5.) they should be tagged accordingly.
I just did this. Make sure you get the small angle broom as the $5 +Up does not print on the larger one.
thanks suzanne, it worked perfect.
the libman items were BOGO50% too, so i paid $5.39 for the broom.
I found the smaller angle brooms at my Rite Aid for $9.99. I bought 2…9.99 +4.99 for the other since its 50% off. Paid 14.98 and got back 2 $5 ups and 1 $3 up making it 1.98 for both!
The first thing the manager told me today when I walked into Rite Aid today was that it’s confirmed that all of SoCal will be switching over to Sunday ads starting Oct. 28th.
Josie, There is a coupon pamphlet in store for Hispanic Heritage month that has 28 store coupons. I know there is a $1 off crest with scope and $1 off Huggies .
I found a $12 coupon book for vision care products last week but I didn’t know about the Hispanic Heritage book. I’m gonna be looking for it next time I go to the store. thank you for sharing.
If you have the $2.00/2 Alka-seltzer coupon that printed on the bottom on the receipt last week, you can get them for free.
oh wow forgot about that coupon thanks!!!
I bought the Libman broom 9.99 and the 3 up didn’t print, only the monthly 5 up . I’m thinking because I didn’t bought $10.00. The dove deal Ups didn’t print either, but the manager gave $2.00 back. I noticed that the dove hair sprays have a ticket for 2 up monthly deal when you buy 2, and a ticket for this weeks deal buy 2 get 2 up. Could this be a double dip?
My Dove didnt print either, manager was happy to give me a gift card.
I bought the Libman mop and I have gold status, so after discount and rewards, it only cost me $3.76 (including tax)! This is great because I needed a new mop.
Since I only bought 1 Libman item, it gave me the 20% discount instead of doing the BOGO 50% off price.
I almost did this, too! I liked that the Gold discount worked in our favor for just buying one. I ended up getting both the mop and broom, though, with the bogo 50%. That way I paid 20.78, but got back a total of $17 UPs, making it $3.78 for both mop and broom, or $1.89 each. A little more out of pocket, but a great deal for the two, after UPs. (Trying to buy the broom on its own in a later transaction would not have been enough to trigger the $3UP for it)
WARNING:: Dove UPs didnt print! Make sure you get them on a gift card.
yup! the manager had to give me the $6 on a gift card – he said they have the most discrepancies on fridays when the ad turns.
I also didn’t get the ups but I was told it was because I didn’t accumulate the 2/7 after coupons, I plan on calling corporate.
My store was aware that the Dove UPs were not printing when I did my transaction at 10am today, so they price modified my purchases for those. But NONE of my other $23 worth of UPs printed today from my transaction. (Libmans, ProFusion, Colgate) The manager called customer service to see what was going on, and the wait was so long he finally just gave me a store gift card for $23. He said it was likely due to some glitch with the new ad rolling over today.
all the Libman deal IS Working. I bought the tornado mop and the broom along with four werther’s and used 2 $1/2 for werthers and two $3 ups total came to $20.60 and received the following UPS (Im at gold but it doesnt matter these were not discounted the libmans are b1g1 50% off)
2 $1 ups for werthers
2 $3 ups for the libmans
1 $5 up for libman
1 $6 up for libamn
total after tax $20.60 after UPS $1.60
Bought the tornado and the broom they will take off half of the broomat $9.99 or $5
On the Libman Mop deal, do you know if you receive the monthly reward of (2) $5 +Ups for the brooms, can you also receive (2) $6 +Ups for the Mops? They are B1G1 1/2 off this week, so I purchased 2 brooms. One was $9.99 and one was $4.99. I paid $14.98 and I received (1) $3 +Up for spending $10 and I got (2) $5 Up for each of the brooms. So I only paid .99 ea for the brooms. I am hoping to do the same thing for the mops since I can get one more $3 +Up. I just don’t know if the other limit of two on the brooms also applies to the mops.
keep an eye out on the GOT2B SMOOTH’N CHIC SMOOTHING LOTION (priced at $6.49). got2b’s are bogo free this week, but this particular product had a GET BACK $4UPR tag on it. here’s what i did:
bought (2) GOT2B SMOOTH’N CHIC SMOOTHING LOTION bogo free priced at $6.49
used (1) $2 off GOT2B coupon from OCT RA VV
pay $4.49
received (2) $4UPR (so a $3.51MM)
Thanks for the heads up Donna! I just got back and my store had the sign up for Oil-licious only. Also $6.49 Bogo then used $2 off Oct RA VV. I got 2 $4 Ups for each item. The sign says 10/3-10/30 limit 3. Woot!
you’re welcome =)
you’re welcome Anne =)
My ups aren’t available to use till the next day even though I opted out on getting them on my card. Is this happening to anybody else???
Yes, this is part of the updated policy. All UPs aren’t available until 6am the next day.
Yes, the date you can use them is printed right on the reward (which is the following day).
boooo!
the nestle coupon i have is for $1.00 of any 2 pkgs
Me too so it’s not worth it for me. I live in north San Diego and don’t receive the good regional Qs. Eh!
I made a purchase today and got a $3 off John Freida coupon (Rite Aid coupon). Just in case folks might want to make another purchase first if they’re planning to buy a John Frieda coupon so they can use that coupon to make it even less expensive…
am i the only one not finding the dove coupons in the red plum insert from last sundays newspaper? could someone let me know if the coupons needed for the dove deals listed in this coupon matchup are for sure in the red plum 9/30 insert? i found other dove coupons, but not the coupons listed for the matchup
Which paper do you receive? The coupon preview is only meant as a guide. All coupons vary by region. I personally received a $0.25/1 coupon in my LA Times. Hope that helps!
even in the coupon preview, it doesnt list a $1/1 dove hair product for the 9/30 red plum
There is an OB tampon/Carefree/Stayfree deal in my circular (LA area) – BOGO 50% off and get $1 UP when you buy 2. There are coupons for these products in SS 8/26 that expires 10/15.
Alka-Seltzer $3 off coupon deal doesn’t work because description on coupon is different than coupon title: It is for 1 ANTACID and 1 Alka-Seltzer Plus. Antacids aren’t on sale.
My Dove UPs printed today, in case anyone was wondering if this was fixed.
Today I found sinful colors nail art on clearance .49 cents each (1.99 reg). Wyb 2 you get a $2 up reward. So $1.02 MM.
Dial speed foam body wash is on sale for $1.99 and there is a $1 off manu. coupon on the target website under personal care. Final price = .99 Coupon limit is 4 per transaction.
Oh and by the way, what is the UP limit on the freida hair color? i bought 2 today and got the up reward, but was wondering if i get two more tomorrow, if ill still get another up reward
