My Shopping Trip: Rite Aid & a $10 Profit!

Rite Aid

You’ll have to excuse me while I announce something.  Okay…Rite Aid.  Listen.  I post your match ups every single week.  I would be an almost daily shopper to your store.  Please, please, please, open up a store near me.  Palease!  {tap,tap,tap…is this thing working?}  Can you hear me Rite Aid?

Okay, I’m done.  Now I can show you the most awesome deals I got today.  Being that I went to Rite Aid on a Friday, most of the stuff I had on my list was already gone.  You know like those cute Nivea Cream Tins.  Hmmm?!?  Gone.  Well, the good thing about this week at Rite Aid is that there was so much profit happening with all those UP rewards printing that there was plenty of room for adjustments.  Even without coupons or when you bring the wrong coupon.  Yes, I did do that.  Brought the wrong coupon.  No worries though, the deal was still awesome.  Here is what I stole bought from Rite Aid.  Ha, you know I wrote that stole, bought thing to be cute and funny (or at least think that I am being cute and funny – just humor me 🙂 ) and then it hit me.  We make out better then a shoplifter. Shoplifters just walk out with “free” merchandise.  We walk out with free merchandise and a profit.  Ha, now that is funny.  Give me a bunch of shoplifters and I’ll teach them how to really get free merchandise.
