Rite Aids

By the time the furnace repairman came and went it was too late to venture out very far from home (my eyesight is about as good as my memory these days, so I can't hardly see after dark), so I just went to my local Rite Aid stores, although one of those is still about 25 miles away.
Neither store had Revlon on clearance :-(

Transaction #1: Did a Thermacare deal
$5.99 (w/ 20% disc) Thermacare x 4
$4.79 Revlon nail polish
$2.39 Revlon Nail Polish
-$5/$25
-3.00 Thermacare IP x 4
-3.00 Rite Aid Revlon Nail Care IP x 2
-8.00 +UPs
= $.14 + 1.83 tax = $1.97 oop

Rec'd $5.00 Thermacare, $5.00 Thermacare, $4.00 Revlon

Final: $4.03 profit

Transaction #2:

$8.99 Sharpie Markers
$4.49 Sharpie Markers BOGO50% sale
$3.99 Cloroseptic
$3.99 Candle bulbs
$1.99 Candle bulbs BOGO50% sale
$4.79 Revlon nail polish
$2.39 Revlon Nail Polish
-$5/$25
-1.00 Chloroseptic MQ
-2.00/2 Dec. Vv
-3.00 Rite Aid Revlon Nail care IP x 2
-16.00 +UPs
= $.63 + 1.79 tax = $2.42 OOP

Rec'd $1.00 Chlorseptic, $3.00 GE Bulbs, $4.00 Revlon
SCR $2.00 Cloroseptic, $1.00 GE

*I should have also received (2) $4.00 +UPs for the Sharpie markers, but didn't. So the cashier did a return, refunding $14.42 (8.99 + 4.49 + .94 tax). He said he was going to rering it, taking $4.00 off each, because they couldn't print the +UPs.
I have no idea what he did, but they rang up $3.19, with a $5.80 disc each. So the total was $6.38 + .45 tax = $6.83.
Leaving me with $7.59, not $8.00.
In addition, instead of $13.48 worth of Sharpies towards my GOS account, I only get $6.38.
So this deal pretty much sucked. Except I got alot of free Sharpies. Who doesn't love Sharpies?!

Final $.17 profit
