$63.94 for $.98 at Rite Aid

May 7, 2010

I also made it to Rite Aid today on my lunch hour. I was a little nervous, because I was planning to use my CoverGirl Buy 1 – Get 1 FREE coupons in conjunction with their Buy 1 – Get 1 FREE sale. There was a little drama involved last time! This time was WAY different though. The cashier was very pleasant, and it was a smooth transaction.  Here’s what I got:

Merchandise Value: $63.94
Out-of-Pocket Cost: $.98 plus tax
Savings: $62.96 (98%)

What I Bought:
2 Garnier HerbaShine Hair Color – $5.99 each
2 CoverGirl Mineral Foundation – $12.99 each
2 CoverGirl Mineral Blush – $12.99 each

Coupons Used:
-$5.00 off $25.00 purchase Rite Aid Video Values coupon
-$2.00 off Garnier hair color Video Values coupon
-$2.00 off x 2 Garnier hair color printable coupon
-$12.99 off x 2 CoverGirl Buy 1 – Get 1 FREE coupon from 4/11 RedPlum insert
-$12.99 off x 2 CoverGirl Buy 1 – Get 1 FREE store sale

Out-of-Pocket Cost: $.98 plus tax

    Awesome! But, I was trying to do the math, and I can’t get it. Can you explain a little bit more the transaction? Thanks.
