notes: i had 2 $2 man. coupons printed out for ester-c and was going to get the ester to-go (reg $5.99) free using 2 man. coupons on the bogo sale and getting the $2 +up back. then i remembered that we aren't allowed to use 2 man. coupons on a bogo sale anymore according to the most recent rite aid policy changes! :(

i decided to get the ester-c gummies instead, even though they were more expensive. they are yummy!

some have found $9.99 foster grant and zoom reading glasses, but the cheapest i could find at my store were these. I expected to get them bogo 50% off with this week's sale, but instead my 20% discount applied. after doing the math, i realized they would have come to the same amount total ($19.98) either way! they were almost free after coupons and +ups earned, i just had to pay the tax.

update: added the $1 savingstar credit for any ester-c! i had forgotten about this, but i make a habit of activating all of the savingstar coupons just in case i happen to buy one of those items. i highly recommend everyone do the same!


i have the wellness gold+ discount - after earning 1000 points wellness+ cardholders receive 20% off. customer will receive the lower of the discount price or sale price. read more here
