I stopped into Rite Aid to grab some prices for the J&J UPR tomorrow. I put together a scenario that I think will work with my prices. Since most of these prices are going to be based on shelf price, they will vary greatly from store to store. This is just an idea to get you started.
Note: I found one floss in store under $4.00. Also keep in mind, that these items are tracking towards the Resolution Rewards.

Do you have a great scenario? Leave it in the comments.
I had to call Customer Service the week of this sale because my UPR didn’t print on my receipt. Anyone know how long it typically takes to receive these in the mail? I’m hoping it comes soon so I can use it toward the Resolution Rewards.
Shannon I’m so frustrated with Rite Aid! I did your deal with the 2 stayfree pads, 2 ob tampons, 1 bengay, 1 visine and I really thought it came to $30. Added it up and only $27 before coupons. $13 after. I went back and bought a J&J baby bath to put me over. Still no $10 UP. The manager told me it needs to be all in one transaction and $30 after coupons and discounts. Is this true? I am in southern California.
Ok, seriously, in the comments there’s a link to get a $3 OB coupon, but you HAVE to watch that commercial. Funniest EVER.
I am focusing on the Neutrogena…I used online prices to work out my scenario – hopefully they are close – I might have to adjust when I get there!
2 TGel 7+3.5 = 10.5
2 Makeup remover cloths 8+4=12
2 Naturals bar 5+2.5=7.5
Total = 30
Use (2) $2/1 Tgel coupon from website
(2) $2/1 from coupons.com
(2) $1/1 naturals coupon from website
Pay 20.00
Get back $10 Up and $10 Rebate
$30 counts toward Resolution Rewards

– 2 Bengay 1/8SS
-2 in-ad Bengay
I will pay $17.40 out of pocket and get a $10 up so it’s really $7.40. Then since all these products count towards the $20 up if you spend $100, I’ll do some double-dipping. These products with my purchases last week will get me to about $50 towards the $100 and including this deal, I have spent less than $10 out of pocket. I am hoping that all this will zero out by the time I reach the $100 mark and get my $20 up!
OK Girls …. I saw this somewhere and I thought it might shave an extra $3 off the scenario if you download the coupon from OB – http://www.obtampons.com/apology. Plus it is a pretty entertaining ad.
I also found a $1 coupon from the J&J’s website (https://www.healthyessentials.com) for the Neosporin. I was thinking about using this instead of the Viactiv as the kids are always needing it.
PS. My wife thinks I am crazy but I keep the deals rolling in. Thanks Shannon!!!!
Oh my gosh we are having a great time with the Ob song – thanks for the link!!!
omg thanks for that ob q! i have the $1/1 and was excited, these are the only tampons i can use and to score some free ones is a life saver! I’ve never gotten these for less than like 3 bucks a box and more often than not its almost 5 :(
That ad was great! Thanks for sharing and for the great coupon!
Thanks Bob, I have a new scenario up with the funny coupon :P
Shannon, I’m curious, how come you aren’t working with neutrogena products instead since there’s a rebate? I was planning on doing that instead of J&J products. Maybe I’m missing something.
I was thinking of doing that too, until I noticed on the rebate form that your total has to be $30 AFTER discounts have been applied, so after coupons. So you’ll have to buy more stuff to get the rebate.
Dawn, the rebate form says $30 after discounts. The last three rebates like this only got refunded after coupons. It is not worth it for me to lose the money again.
