Rite Aid shopping 2/10-2/16

Trip 1

• 4 Skintimate
• 3 light bulbs
• 2 colgate 360 toothbrushes
• 2 lindt dark chocolate truffles

 coupons used

1.  10% off shopping pass
2. (2) BOGO skintimate coupons max $3 (printable)
3. (3) $3 off light bulbs (In Ad Q)
4. (2) $.50 off colgate toothbrushes
5. (2) $3 off lindt item (printable) 

* Annoyed because I did not receive 10% off my non sale items (shave gels), however the cashier manually gave me $3.29 off the shave gels when the max was $3 because that scanner is iffy at working. I paid almost $1 more than I should have and I could have bypassed this since I was only 30 points away from reaching silver status where you get 10% off any non sale item automatically!*

I paid $1.51 +tax ($3) and got back $32 in UP rewards!

Trip 3

• 1 L'oreal Revitalift eye cream
• ritz crackers (I already ate these because I was stressed about this trip which I'll explain!)

2. $1 off L'oreal skin care item (newspaper)
3. $42 in UP rewards

Okay now onto my rant... First, it's not RA's fault. It's mine. So I have 2 RA cards, one for me, one for my mom. I wanted to start doing deals on her card as well which is why I bought the toothbrushes; they are $2.99 and gave $2 in UPs limit 4. Since I already did that deal on my card I needed to use hers to get the rewards. BUT I didn't get my moms card in the mail yet so I gave the cashier my phone # and it turns out I gave the wrong number! I gave the number linked to MY account, not hers. So I wasted $12 in rewards on toothbrushes and I'm kicking myself because I could have used that on another deal. *sigh* seriously, spending $12 on toothbrushes (even if it is only reward money) makes my skin CRAWL! But I did get a great deal on dresses today & I saved about $11 extra so I guess it balanced out...

Alright, now I can tell you I only paid $0.43 cents +tax for all this and got back $30 in rewards so it wasn't that bad of a mistake... I just have to keep telling myself that lol.
