I used the video coupons in a store/area where they had no idea what the cards even looked like. They took my coupons and had no problem. I didn’t read the small print though, I didn’t know I couldn’t use them there. The cashiers were nice and impressed with how little I paid for my stuff too .

Reputable rumor has it that J&J baby products will be on sale next week. Might want to wait to use your coupons

1st transaction: (even if you didn’t do anything else to get the rebate this is a great deal if you needed anyone of these items )

1 Cortaid 3.99
1 Benadryl gel caps 24ct 5.49
2 Sudafed PE cap 10 ct 4.99 each
1 visine 4.99

Total 24.45 towards J&J rebate
It was over $25 with tax so my RA took my $5/$25

I used:
-5/25 RA
-2 Cortaid 1/3rp
-1 Benadryl 3/14rp
-2 in ad Benadryl
-3/2 sudafed 1/3rp
-2 in ad sudafed
-2 in ad sudafed
-3 visine March All You (theres also a -2 in the 1/3 ad)
-3 in ad visine
OOP with tax the total was $2.81

Trans 2

Joy anti-bac .79
Neut unscented soap 3.5 2.89
Neut unsented soap 2.89
Bandaid 1.99
Bandaid 1.99
Renpure 6.99
Renpure BOGO 0

Total 17.54
Towards J&J 9.76

Used:
-3/15
-3 Renpure vv
-.30 Joy 2/7pg
-2 inad Neutragena
-2 inad Neutragena
-1 bandaid 1/3 rp
-1 bandaid 1/3 rp

With tax oop was 6.26

Trans 3:
Benadryl 5.49
Benadryl 5.49
Cortaid 3.99
bandaid 1.99

Total, all J&J 16.96
Used:
-3/15
-2 Ben. inad (use 2)
-1 Ben 3/14rp (use 2)
-2 Cortaid 1/3
-1 bandaid 1/3

4.96 plus tax oop

Total OOP for all 3 transactions 14.03 plus tax on transaction 3 (I haven’t done it yet)

Will get $25 J&J RA rebate and $3 renpure mail in rebate (not Rite Aid)
Here are a couple of notes:
1. Always give your $/$$ coupons first, don’t even hand them other ones.
2. If you use more then 1 inad coupon, you need more then 1 inad coupone (I know some stores use the same coupon several times). I had to have 2 sales flies to cut coupons out of and will get another when I walk in the store today for the last transaction.
3. In the 1st transaction my RA counted tax as part of the $25, if yours requires $25 in merchandise just add a bandaid or a cheap filler.
If you could do transaction 1 two times adding a pack of bandaids you would make about $18, I don’t have another 5/25 or my 5/20vv (I used it last week). Also this could easily be done as two transactions without the Renpure and Joy.

I hope this motivates someone to get out there and get a great deal!

I didn’t see any deals listed for the buy $50 worth of Johnson & Johnson products and get a $25.00 rebate (may have missed it) so I went through the ad this weekend and my coupons and I had coupons for most of the items. Everyone might want to check it out. I was able to get my $50.00 worth of product for $8.92 OOP and will get the $25.00 rebate make it a $16.08 money maker. I had to do 3 transactions on it and used 3 of the $3 off $15 coupons. I stacked the in ad coupons with manufacturer coupons and some video value coupons. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up in case they were looking at doing it.

Robbin,

Send a list. I am assuming you did the J&J Rebate

By: Robbin

Robbin — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 04:57:35 +0000

You said it was a blah week but I just did a great money maker. Spent $9.07 today.
Tomorrow will spend $4.94 + tax.
I’ll get $28 back in rebates, I call that a great week!
My cameras not working or I submit it to be a featured shopper:)

SRT,

You can stack with coupons that start with RC with a single barcode and are specifically Rite Aid Man. Coupons.

So we can’t stack the printables with the in-ad coupon even though the policy says:”Only one manuf. coupon is accepted, unless couple with another manf. found in a Rite Aid circular.”?

I went to another Rite Aid yesterday, not my usual and had a ton of problems, ended up not buying anything. Question on the BOGOs…With the covergirl face bogo, can I use 1 BOGO combine with the rite aid bogo and not pay anything for 2 products, or do I have to buy one, use the bogo and get 2 free and pay for 1?

I’m sorry everyone is having cashier issues. I just started shopping Rite Aid last week and didn’t have any problems (Horsham and King of Prussia, if you want to try them). Scanned my x/xx first and didn’t blink an eye at the BOGO cover girl. My first receipt was $0.00. The receipt printed out and she said, wow, that’s a good deal! This is good and bad for me. Love the deals, but I’m already addicted to CVS. Darn you Shannon and your too-good-to-pass-up scenarios!!

I think I’m going to transfer my son’s vitamin prescription and get the $25 gift card this week.

My $5/$25 was refused yesterday for being too dark to scan. My $3/$15 wasn’t acceptable either and they refused to enter it manually. I was able to get me BOGO Cover Girl but not the Almay deal and not the Pampers deal.

Rite Aid specifically says on the coupons that you may not use them outside of the areas. I have checked with my contact and they indicated that they are not to be used outside of the wellness markets. However, the wellness program will be rolling out nationwide soon.

Quick question about the wellness program: i am new to shopping at Rite Aid (I usually shop at Walgreens). I signed up for the Rite Aid Wellness Program, not fully understanding what it was. I printed some of the coupons and used them with no problems. I just found out (when my card arrived in the mail) that my area isn’t included. So, the question is, can you still use the Qs but you can’t get the points for the Wellness program? Is that why we can sign up if we aren’t in a Wellness area?

Jan,

No this particular coupon is a manufacturer coupon and not a Rite Aid coupon.

I have noticed that at my Rite Aid the cashiers are beginning to wait until all other coupons have come off before scanning my $/$$ coupons, however they still work as long as my total was originally over the set dollar amount. I haven’t had a problem at my Rite Aid yet, knock on wood.

The store manager at my store yesterday pulled something like this. He INSTISTED that all my BOGO coupons had to be scanned after each item, and not at the end of the transaction. Which pretty much made my $5/$20 coupon obsolete. What should have been a $2 total was $11.xx. He made me furious, but I was polite (through my teeth).

Thanks for letting me vent

About the Hershey’s candy…there is also an in-ad coupon $2off 3. That can be stacked with the printables, correct?

No Carilyn, they let you sign up which is so silly. But we cannot use them yet.

I was just on the Rite Aid website and it let me sign up for the wellness + program. Does that mean that it is in my area or is everyone allowed to sign up? It also let me print coupons, can I use them? I live on the PA- Ohio border? I am kinda new to Rite aid deals. Thanks !

Hi Shanon, do you know what size Cottonele toilet paper is on sale? My coupon is for the 12 pack of larger. Thanks!

Rosey,

Read Lauren’s comment, maybe this is the course of action that you can take. It stinks that these District Managers try to implement rules, it just makes Rite Aid look bad.

Hi guys – I just wanted to say that several months ago one of my RA managers insisted that the policy was changed (regarding the $5/25 cpns). She said that it was an “email that came down from corporate.” When I asked for a printed policy regarding the change she said it wasn’t available. So I emailed RA corporate and received a response immediately. They called my RA store and I haven’t had a problem since! I was very impressed!
