Nifty Deals at ShopRite and RiteAid

As promised, I will post my nifty deals today. First off I went to RiteAid (a CVS competitor) an hour before closing at that

I got 3 30-count Zyrtec Allergy meds. Initially, I thought they were out of them but I found out they were placed elsewhere without the sale price tag (clever clever store associates). I don't like going to RiteAid because they are rebate-based which means you spend more on the day you shop and wait at least 30 days to get your rebate. But since this is really a good deal, I went on and did it. I come from a family with severe Allergic Rhinitis and this medicine is a staple on our home in Cebu, too bad I'm immune to them because I've been taking the darn medicines since I was still a virgin highschooler! It would be crazy for me not to do this deal, my Mom bought two bottles of these when she was here to bring to Cebu because they were a lot cheaper.

Total before coupons: 56.97
Used 3 $4 Zyrtec Mfr coupons, 1 $5 Zyrtec RiteAid coupon and 1 5 off 25 Rite Aid coupon
Total after coupons: 34.97 and I will get $25 rebate which brings the total to 9.97.

Now if RiteAid will accept my receipt for Zyrtec rewards (I read that you need to spend $50 worth of Zyrtec tabs AFTER coupons), I will get another $10 making them totally free. But still 9.97 for 3 bottles is a nifty deal.

Then I went to Shoprite (grocery shop) and bought the items below

- 2 loaves of Wheat Bread on sale for 1.50
- 2 velvetta mac & cheese (used B1G1 Q)
- 2 beechnut cereal (used 1 off 2 Q)
- 1 Caffeine Free Classic Coke (because Yiek keeps on pestering me if I bought them)

Total before Coupons: 11.74
Total after coupons: 4.45 (used 5 Catalina that I earned from previous grocery trip) plus I got $1 Coupon/catalina to spend on my next shopping trip. I could not wait for a good deal on the cereal and coke so I got those, I could have saved more if they were on sale.

I then went to CVS, but they were out of Carefree pantyshield and Glade sense & spray, so I walked home empty handed. I might go tomorrow lunch at a store near my office.
