Rite Aid P&G Visa Card Scenario: $4 Money Maker!

Well, it’s the last week to submit your receipts
for the P&G Visa Card SCR at Rite Aid, so I thought I’d better make a scenario so we can go shopping!!

Has anyone done this Rebate yet?

I am going to break up 4 scenarios/transactions in $25 incriments. This way you can “spend” what you’d like (either $25, $50 or $100)… All of these scenarios will use this $5/$25 Rite Aid coupon to maximize your savings. If you don’t have access to 2 printers (for 4 coupons), you can use this $5/$20 Printable coupon.

I click on your link for the $5/$25 coupon and it takes me to the redplum site. Is that where you are getting you coupon from? I cannot find it on their site. Is there a certain zip code that you have to use?
Thanks.

Heather
Yes it’s on redplum’s site. It was on page 3 for me last night (using 83617)
Hope this helps!

Em
I can’t find it either even when using your zip. Any other suggestions? Thanks for all the help.
Heather
Maybe you’ve already printed it? I can still see mine (on page 2 now). I think there’s a pdf coupon out there. If I find it, I’ll post it.
Sorry!

Amanda
I think the $5/$25 coupon is gone… I have tried several zip codes with no luck…

Heather
It’s not gone for me. I am looking at it right now on my computer screen, but I am guessing they have not reset it since many of you printed it. Maybe try a neighbor or family member’s computer…

Amanda
I tried it on another computer and it was still there… not sure how that all works since I don’t really think I printed it before… but thanks! I am new to couponing (about 3 weeks since I read your book) and am LOVING it!
Stacie
I used my zip code (18052) but I had to change the radius to 50 miles. You could possibly use your own zip code, too, I think the trick is to change the radius.

Liz
It says that it is the last week to submit for the P&G visa rebate. I am new to the one check rebates on right aid’s web site and I was wondering if I have to submit for my rebates all at once or if I can just submit for the P&G visa rebate because I know you can only submit for your one check rebate with in a month period. ????
Liz
Um… so I’m pretty sure I can submit for it separatley because it is a P $G visa card rebate, not a right aid one check rebate. Can some one verify this for me???
Liz
Um… so I guess I’m just writing to myself here.. ha ha.. but I found the answer to my question in a different comment board… “All you have to do is submit your receipt online to Rite Aid. After one or two days, you should get an email with an update on your “status”. Log back in to your Rite Aid Single Check Rebates account and it will say that you qualify for a $5 Visa card. You can either request it now or try and make more purchases to get up to $50 or $100. Hope that helps!”

Heather
Liz, I was just coming to leave a comment to help you! Sorry I was slow!

Hedda
If I’ve already requested my January SCR, am I out of luck on this P&G card?
I’m still so new at this, I’m easily confused!
Hedda
Oh duh. There’s the answer right above. I still have new mommy brain, sorry!

Great scenario! I have quite a few different $25 P&G scenarios (including crazy cheap diapers!) written up if anyone is looking for something different. http://beautifulfrugallife.blogspot.com/2010/02/rite-aid-weekly-deals-27-213.html
Alicia
Hi, I just did a bunch of this this morning. The Herbal Essence..you can buy the .99 trail size and get the 3.00 sytler free (did this morning with manager approval – worked fine!)
I did the buy the venus razor, and get the free body wash…mine was 7.79…Great for counting towards PGE
Also, it doesn’t say you have to buy the cheapest Puffs, so I bought the most exensive one with lotion….@ 2.49…

http://beautifulfrugallife.blogspot.com/ Melody
Good thinking Alicia, way more towards the P&G than the .99 one. Thanks!

Michelle
What about this one:
$10.99 Tide
$5.99 Tide Stain Release
$3.00 (Approximate) Bayer Asprin 81mg
$19.98 Total
5/20 RAQ
.35 Tide
5.99 Buy Tide Get Stain Release
1.00 Bayer Asprin (not sure of date)
2.00 VV Asprin (adjusted down to actual price)
That would make it $5.69 plus tax OOP. My store doesn’t like me to use coupons, so they told me that my total including tax needs to be $20. This helps me sometimes, but others it doesn’t.
This also will give you 16.98 towards the P&G deal? Does this sound all right?

Heather
Great scenario! Thanks Michelle!

Linda C.
Heather, I just wanted to say thank you for working out this scenario. I was just telling my boyfriend that you blow my mind. I had given up on trying to get the P&G card because I couldn’t get it together. And there you go turning it into a money maker!! You’re just awesome….and I’m not worthy!! :-]

Heather
Linda, you are too sweet! Glad to know it helped!

Denise
I just requested my $35 gift card tonight. I had been slowly working on earning it using my gift of savings and lots of buy one get one free coupons– I spent less than $25 out of pocket! Yay!

Great post. It is clear You have a great deal of unused capacity, which you have not turned to your advantage.
The way you write shows you have a need for other people to like and admire you, and yet you tend to be critical of yourself.
It seems to me that while While you have some personal weaknesses you are generally able to compensate for them.

Wow. Great list. Discounts are discounts and it translates to savings. Got to take advantage while it lasts

Thanks so much for posting this, I’ve been looking for a good scenario, and this one is laid out so well and pretty much meets my needs (I just have to find a substitute for the diapers and i’m good to go). I really enjoy your site, it is so well organized and fun to read – thanks for all you do!
Michelle
My recent ads has an announcement with a buy 3 get a $15 rebate from Olay. At the bottom, it refers to the Olay website and that the rebate relates to purchases made starting from 2/12/10. I haven’t seen the rebate form on Olay yet.

Now that we are at the end of the sale I have posted a scenario for those who might need diapers. Oh what fun!
Nat
I have completed some amateur scenarios for the P&G rebate and have $50+ worth of products on three receipts. I purchased everything at RiteAid on 02.12 (I did not do as well because the cashier did not enter a coupon correctly and I did not catch it until I was home) I have now entered the receipts on the SCR website.
Question: How do I go about submitting for the P&G without submitting the rest of my SCRs? I think the P&G is due on 02.15. It was my understanding that once you request your check for the month, you are done and cannot request more.
On the plus side, I made my purchases on 02.12, and they included three OLAY products, so I can submit the receipts and get the OLAY rebate in addition to the P&G. Wow!

Nat
Nevermind. I reread the SCR website and it states that you have to submit your receipts by 03.15 not 02.15. So I can just wait to submit at the end of the month and keep racking up SCRs.
