Final Total $1.59 and $1.90 for total 30 rolls paper towels.
and Rogaine.

The Lysol deal (not available in Short-ad land) I saw late in the game. I guess I didn't see it right away because it wasn't spelled out for me *Barney style*.
The Purex 3-in-One sheets are BOGO $8.99, Lysol Wipes (et al) are BOGO $3.49, and Lysol Spray is 2/$7.00, or $3.50 each. Plus, if you buy $10.00 worth, you get $3.00 +UP.
There are mq's in the inserts for $3.00 off the Purex,  $1.00 the Lysol Spray, and $1/2 the Wipes.
I think there might be some Vv coupons also, but I was using coupons from the Coupon Savings/Flu booklets; $1.00 off Purex, $2.00 Lysol Spray, $1.50 Lysol Wipes.
Most stores were out of either the wipes or Purex sheets, so I had to change up my shops alot, getting wipes and sprays, or sheets and wipes, etc. Several different variations there.

The Cokes were on sale for $9.00/3, and get $1.00 +UP wyb 3.
I bought them with the nail polishes that were free after +UPs, so the $5/$25 I used applied straight to the Cokes, making it $3.00/3, or $1.00 12-pk.

In two stores I found the boxes of Nyquil liquipills that say Nyquil Sinex on them. They aren't marked for the Nyquil sale, but did ring up $4.99. I used the $4.00 Sinex coupon from the 10/10 PG (there are also $4 from the 9/26 but those only have the Spray pictured, where the 10/10 has the Nyquil Sinex box pictured so they can't argue it). The coupon did beep at one store, but went right through without any problem at another.
$4.99 Nyquil Sinex
-4.00 mq
= .99 and Get $1.50 +UP
*I also had a $2.00 Sinex Flu booklet coupon I was able to use so my savings were even better.

Then, got some more Freebates when I needed them to bring my total up to $25, and found several more Little Hugs drinks clearanced for .74 each.

Final Totals:
$294.58 Value Before Coupons (Sale prices)
$4.96 + 13.04 tax = $18.01 oop
$68.96 +UPs Used
$72.00 +UPs Rec'd
$31.44 SCRs
Final Total $16.47 Profit
There's a BOGO50% sale on All Nail Enamel (excluding Brucci, Wet 'n Wild, and Maybelline), and get $1.00 +UP wyb Any Nail Enamel.
Some people have found that some of the *Sinful Colors* line of nail polish is ringing up at .99 and still giving the $1.00 +UP. (I can confirm this.)
Here is a general list of colors that have been found to be ringing up at .99, but I learned that this varies from store-to-store. At one store Ladies Choir was .99, but not at another, and some others.
The best thing to do is take one of each color to the counter and get it price checked.

*Apparently some people have also learned that while +UPs are unlimited, there does appear to be a $25.00 limit per transaction. So if you buy 26 nail polishes, you might not get one, so split them up.

OH.MY.GOSH!! How in the heck do you get so many UP's?? I have no clue how to get more than like 8 UP's! I wish I were as good as you and could get all this great stuff for so cheap. Especially all the rite aid stuff... I'm so jealous! I know alot of people that I want to donate to.
