Rite Aid Help

New to shopping at Rite Aid? Glad to have you on board! I’m here to help! Here are a few things you should know about navigating the crazy awesome coolness that is Rite Aid.

1. Wellness Program. If you haven’t signed up for new loyalty card, go ahead and do so. You’ll be entitled to exclusive discounts plus you can rack up rewards – mostly savings on future purchases. Also, many of the sale prices and UP Reward deals require the use of a Wellness card.

2. Video Values. Watch short videos to earn Rite Aid coupons, including a $2-off-$10 purchase! (Use this coupon on top of hot rebate deals and sales for deep discounts.)

3. Rite Aid Rebates. Think rebates are a huge ol’ waste of time and postage? Think again! Rite Aid’s rebate program makes it quick and easy for you to get your cash back – you can do it without ever stamping an envelope, too. Create your free rebate account over HERE.

4. UP Rewards. These are coupons that print at the bottom of your receipt when you purchase participating products. I recently had a PR rep answer some of my (and YOUR) UP Rewards questions. See that post HERE. There are also general FAQs about how these work HERE.

5. Coupon Acceptance. I think you’ll find Rite Aid to be one of THE most coupon friendly stores out there! Be sure to print and bring their corporate coupon policy with you.

Still Lost?

Maybe you’d prefer to have someone sit down with you and make sense of it all? Consider watching this recorded webcast I filmed a few weeks back called Drugstore Shopping 101!

For additional Rite Aid and drugstore deals, be sure to stop by The Grocery Gathering.

Dove chocolate coupon must be regional–I didn’t get it in the Tacoma paper.

Well…boogers!! When I did my matchups last night, I was using a preview and the Seattle paper, which doesn’t contain the Red Plum.

Our store (Oregon City) had the Beyond Bodiheat disposable heating pads for $1.00, the neck, shoulder, wrist pads had a peelie making them only 50 cents per box (limit 6).

Tried that $2 off VV beauty coupon. It only works on the items listed on the coupon :(

Oh no! Thanks for the clarification, though!!

I made a quick trip to get the free Halls (after .50 in ad plus .50 man). I paid .09 for tax and the receipt had a $3 survey reward. Super!

On the Almay make-up deal – my store had several eye make-up options on 75% clearance. They didn’t qualify for the B2GO deal because they are clearance but I paid less than $2 each for 3, used 3 – $2C, got 2 UPS and submitted it for $3SCR ($1 each, limit of 6). I made over $5!

I just started shopping at Rite-Aid and need an insight on these coupons:

I received a $2 off $10 VV beauty products coupon, also printed out individual coupons from the VV for these beauty products. Also have the $3 off $15 purchase for taking the survey. My question is: Do I use these both in one purchase? Rite Aid’s policy says it accepts a 49 coupon, 48 coupon, and 1 mfr coupon per item.. So do I buy $15 worth of items (10 worth of those listed beauty) and get $3 and then $2 off since it is still equivalent to more than $10??? Or do I have to do separate purchases?

And is there a certain maximum value of mfr coupons all together that I can use in one purchase??

I am new to rite aid and am attempting a money saving shopping trip today. Will see how it goes. I was curious about the video value coupons. I just watched 11 videos and attempted to print them and only two printed and cut the rest off :( Now it won’t let me reprint. Any tips? Also, the ones that printed say “manufacture coupon” & don’t combine, but you show you can “stack” them with other manufacture coupons such as on the Dove chocolates. Is this correct? I am also running into websites (such as the Keri coupon) saying I have printed the coupon already, but I haven’t. I have had this happen multiple times whith different products. Has this happen to anyone else and how can I avoid or correct it?

Spent $90.15 & saved $264.13(after rebates)! Whoot! Couldn’t find the bioheat, but scored 48oz. Benefiber with calcium on clearance for 50%. Bought two & used $3/2 coupon = $10.48 for two
