It’s been a while since I’ve done a Rite Aid run. I just wasn’t seeing awesome deals on things we needed. I’m trying to balance my out of pocket against what we really need and hopefully find a happy middle.
As my husband shaves his entire head and most of his face at least three times a week he was low on razors. Actually he was on his last razor and had been telling me for some time that he needed some more. I, however, had been waiting for the “perfect coupon scenario” for razors, which never came. Today I finally pulled myself up by my bootstraps and headed to Rite Aid for this transaction –
- Two packs of Fusion ProGlide razors at 16.19 a piece = $32.38
- One pack of Huggies diapers = 8.99
- TOTAL = $41.37
- After coupons, a $3 rebate check, and a $20 gift card I’d earned from a prior Rite Aid transaction, I paid $5.03 out of my own pocket. I also received a $10 UP reward for later. So, all in all, not bad.
Ajax and I also made some freezer jam. For one jar, it cost a total of $1.99 to make! Strawberries were on sale for $1 and the pectin was only $.99. Ajax had fun tossing the strawberries into the magic bullet. We ended up eating a bit of it for a desert after dinner, so we didn’t have a full jar to put into the freezer. Oh well.
