Rite Aid

The candy deal appears to be over now, but at the time it was going on, it was giving the $1/2 +UP as advertised, in addition to $2 +UP each bag. So if you go 10 bags at $2.50 each = $25.00, and you got $25.00 +UPs back!
Plus using the $5/25 and .50/$5 and $2/3 or $4/6 Sour Patch/Swedish coupons made for some sweet profit!

I also managed to find a few Oral-B toothbrushes and Crest Outlast w/ Scope toothpaste; free after +UP.
If any of you are out tomorrow and see any Oral- Artic Advantage TBs, have them price check: I found (1) today and it worked for the free after +UP deal.

I also found (4) of the Oral-B Vitality Rechargeable TBs at one store, clearanced 50% off to $12.49.
I bought (2) at a time and used $5/$25, $1/$10 Wellness, and (2) $10 MQs from 9/26 PG.
That took me .02 in the negative, so I didn't use a $1 off any Oral-B from the flu booklet, but if I had another $1.00 more of stuff I could have.
No +UP on these; just really cheap after coupons. You may still be able to find these next week, so keep looking.

Otherwise I bought several bags of Pretzel Rods and three boxes of Mini Moon Pies because they were clearanced for .25 each...how could I not??
Also burnt some +UPs on a clearanced 2GB flash drive for $14.99. My son needed one the other day.

Also got a jug of milk we needed and it was too far out of the way to drive to Publix the way I went today, and the 6-pack of Little Hugs drinks were clearanced at .74,  I needed .58 more cents to bring my total up to the amount of +UP I had to spend. My kid jumped on them when I came in the door, so I may have to go back and get the rest of them later.

Totals:
$268.88 Value before Coupons
$144.00 +UP Spent
$3.88 + 9.01 tax = $12.89 from gift card(s)
$167.18 +UP Rec'd
+$10.29 Profit Final Total

Yeah it was a near miss for me, too. I haven't been board reading this week, either. I've got to get back to work!
