My Rite Aid receipt is a little short this week, but I was able to get some quality items for next to nothing. I got two 30 oz. bonus-sized bottles of Shout @ $2 each, 1 roll of Duck Brand packing tape @ $1.50, and two Glade Scented Oil refills @ $2.50 each. What, you think that doesn’t sound so great? Keep reading.

My total at this point is $10.50. I used a Glade BOGO coupon and two $0.75 Shout coupons to bring my total down to $6.50. I earned a $2 single check rebate on the 2 bottles of Shout, $1.50 SCR on the tape, and a $2 SCR on the Glade refills. So that brings my total to a paltry $0.49 when all is said and done. Another great week!

That same day I went to CVS, overflowing coupon organizer in-hand, to get some more steals (I mean deals). I picked up two 216 ct. boxes of Puffs @ $1.50 each, two 32 ct. boxes of Stayfree @ $4.50 each, on 16 ct. Kotex @ $1.49 and one 24 ct. Zantac Cool Mint for $8.49.

My original total was $21.98.  I used my trusty $4/$20 coupon to knock the price down to $17.98, so I was off to a great start. I got this one in an email from CVS, and even though it was only good through the weekend, the timing couldn’t have been better. Then I used a $1 Zantac coupon, two $1 Stayfree coupons, and a $0.25 Puffs coupon (hey, a quarter is a quarter, right?). Now my total was only $14.73. I used $9.79 in ECBs which brought my total down to only $4.94 before tax. I earned $8.49 in ECBs. I try not to ever lose any ECBs, but I still made out like a bandit!

Unfamiliar with MyPoints?

With MyPoints you earn points for doing what you already do online: shopping, reading emails, playing games, searching the web, and more. Once you build up enough points you can redeem them for gift cards. There are many to choose from that include shopping, restaurants, travel, and gas cards. I mostly just read emails but I will do a survey or complete a free offer every once in a while. In a year I will earn a few free dinners out for not much work at all.

When I first started living on my own I hated getting mail. There would just be bill after bill, but I would open each one hoping that they were sending ME a check (this was a strange fantasy I had back when I was broke). That never happened, but what I get in the mail now comes close to my fantasy.

Yesterday I finally received my $75 Shell Gas Card from the Sears/Dockers promotion along with a $10 off $50 coupon for Sears men’s apparel. I also got my $5 Sears gift card from AdPerk, a coupon for $10 off a salon retail purchase of $10 or more from JCPenney, and coupon for a free pouch of Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice.

Oh, and thanks to the Rite Aid rebate program, now someone IS sending me checks!
