Great Week to Shop at RiteAid for Oral Care and Razors

This is a GREAT week to shop at RiteAid for oral care products and razors! I will start by saying that our RiteAid ads in the San Diego and Los Angeles areas start on Fridays so I was able to do my shopping this morning. Everyone else has to wait until Sunday for these deals. Here are the great deals I got:

If you buy the 4 bottles of mouth wash and the toothbrush you can cash in on the 5.00 +UP reward for spending 25.00, which means you total for all 5 items is 1.00 after you get your single check rebates (SCR).

I also bought Loreal Youth Code Intense Serum to try out.
21.99 (on sale)
-3.00 manufacturer coupon that came with my free sample
-5.00 Rite Aid Video Value coupon for August
13.99
-5.00 +UP
8.99

I did my entire purchase in one transaction and did not use any previous +UP rewards or extras like that so I could see my actual cost and savings. I only used manufacturer and RiteAid store coupons for this transaction and here is how things ended up:

Total before coupons = a little over 104
After coupons = 59.38 out-of-pocket
+UP rewards to use on future purchases = 20.00
Mail-in SCR = 15.99

Today's shopping total = 23.39

Not too bad for 4 bottles of mouth wash, a power toothbrush, Loreal Youth Code Serum, 2 nail clippers, 3 nail files, 12 disposable razors, and 4 cans of shaving gel. Especially not bad if you consider that it would cost that much just for the razors on this sale.
