Rite Aid


First "deal" shop at Rite Aid in awhile.
Not in any hurry to go back either.  RA should be glad to hear that, since they're apparently working hard to run the customers off.

$7.99 Blink - 2.00 5/22 RP = 5.99; get $2.00 SCR = $2.00 profit

$4.99 Charcoal Lighter Fluid - 20% disc = $3.99; get $3.00 SCR = .99

(*This is a pdf file, allowing however prints you want, but for some reason you can only use it once, per card, per store? I tried to buy (6) and use (3) q's, but the first one worked and the others beeped. So I tried getting (3) and using (1), it beeped so she said it was because we already scanned it, and typed it in.
Next order, she said it wouldn't scan, but it did. She didn't know I had changed cards. Tried the third time and it beeped and she wouldn't accept it because *they are coding them now so you can only use a coupon once*. Typical Manager Made-up BS. It was a pdf file - if it was only usable once, it would have beeped after the first person in the world used it! Anyway, took same q to another store, used with first card, no beep. It's obviously stupid RA's registers, not the coupon.)
