With list in hand and coupons ready, I arrived at my local Rite Aid at 8:40am. In my pocket was $27 ups and two $3 surveys to start my journey.
The following transaction (1) would have cost at regular price 44.01 + 3.08 tax = $47.09
I bought 8 assorted Revlon tools at 40% off for a total of $11.21 (money maker, get $4 ups, wyb 2 tools)
And I bought 2 Proglide razors at (reg 13.29) $9.99 apiece. $4 coupon on each.
total $23.19 plus $1.82 tax
paid with $3 off 15 survey
2 $1 video values
and $17 up rewards
= $4.80 out of pocket
received $26 up rewards, $5 ups for each razor, $4 ups for each 2 tools.
26.00 - 23.19 = $2.81 Profit.
Even after paying $1.82 in tax it is still a $.99 Profit.
That was the first transaction. Here is the second.
2 Raid sprays (5.49) $2.99 each
4 Crest (4.29) $2.99 each, $1.50 coupon each
3 Profoot (9.99) $5.00 each, $1.00 coupon each, $2.00 video values

Phys Formula $13.95 each b1g1free, $5.00 coupon each, $2.00 video values
5 Excedrin (5.49) $1.99 each, $1.00 coupon each
$75.82 - $42.48 coupons = $33.34 plus tax 2.32
paid with $3 off 15 survey
and $28 ups, the ups I just earned above
$4.66 out of pocket
earned $12 ups, $2 for raid, $8 for crest, $2 for profoot
Regular price for transaction 2 is $136.57 + 9.56 tax = $146.13
Not bad at all. Only $4.66 out of pocket for $146 of products.
Then I noticed that the breathe right counted on the $5 ups for $25 allergy promo. I had 2 more breathe right coupons. So I proceeded with transaction 3.
I purchased 2 breathe right for $6.49 each.
Regular price $12.98 +.91 tax = $13.89
Used coupons for $5.99 each.
$1.91 out of pocket, $1.00 + .91 tax
