So for the Holidays and secret Santa, you can't go wrong with chocolate!!
So I was surprised Rite-Aid was having a Hershey's Pot of Gold sale, it's usually 9 bucks. But it's a BOGO free deal. (around $4.50 a box now) However.
I don't know if this goes for all Rite-Aid stores but there's the Caramel one that's 2.49. It won't ring up at the registrar so I had to wait to get it cleared.

So in all I got 4 boxes for about 10 dollars.

Now that there's a target store close by...
*scrambles for the Target thread*

What I DON'T like about Target is that it's like Walmart. Corporate companies.

There's always Trader Joe's though. I have never been to Trader Joe's but I heard they're even better since it's around good prices with organic food. They seem like a nice place ^^ But American tofu may taste funny. hehe. Americanized version of Asian cuisine is mostly globs of fat...

Also, what I didn't know was that you can get expired coupons scanned at Target. Isn't that abusing coupons though?

Also this place scans coupon barcodes and tells you what the coupon can also be used for other than what it's face is.

Maybe it's old news but I'm a 16 year old with no life.

Oh by the way at Rite-Aid, Ferrero Roche (can't spell) chocolates are 1.99, I don't know about you but I think it's good enough, there might be a bigger sale at Walgreens when Christmas season hits though.

And a lady I met at Rite-Aid was getting those Kleenex for 99 cents, it's the small almost square box one, the lotion or regular kind, not the anti-viral one. It's apparently cheap because she had to get a rain check. I will ask mom about this. As much as I love trees, I cannot sew a hanky.

Halloween Candy was 75% off, I'm done with candy for now. I didn't look at the rebate booklet. For all I know I don't like mail-in rebates. Too much trouble.

My webdesign and programming club turned out better than I expected. More than half the people who signed up came! (This is big to me because a friend of mine told me that her art club only had 3 people who came out of 100 people+ who signed up. Poor Faith.)

So you must bribe your little followers with treats. In this case, candy. Starburst, cheaper than last week. Buy one get one free sale at Rite-Aid. Starburst was 2.99 a bag. What happened was...I was overcharged. They charged me $1.69 a bag. So they overcharged me 40 cents. Went back, got 39 cents. Hey, they were really sincere about it. Apparently the cashier didn't really know math...

(I'm still mentally grinning.)

So I asked the manager about Sunday Newspapers, the newspaper comes to pick up leftovers on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's good information. I want cheap newspaper.

Not alot of deals I want to type about Rite-Aid this week.

- Yoplait Yogurt breast cancer lids and box tops of education. It's good ebay money if you don't have a school to support.

That's all for today. I'm bad at focusing on schoolwork...

So I have to retype this. Again…because I lost it. To a backspace button. And I love this blog and this is why I’m retyping it at 12:44 A.M., otherwise I would type in gibberish out of frustration.

So yes, the Verizon ad, has anyone else gotten it? The government is trying to tax our internet. *cry*

I went to Walgreens with mom last weekend, and checked out the deals for Rite-Aid this week. I’ll just type the deals that I thought were good/decent:

Walgreens:

* 3/$6 Tropicana OJ (I wanted it to be $5 as it usually was.)

*Rimmel Renew & Lift Foundation – Free after $8.99 rebate

*Pantene ProV Hair Products – Free after $5.99 rebate

*Aquafresh Gel-Flex or Toothbrush – Free after $3.99 rebate

*Clear Care Pack Contact Sol. 4oz – Free after $6.99 rebate

*Zicam Cold & Flu - $4 rebate (Maismom only had to pay a nickel. LOL.) compared to Rite Aid’s $6.99.

*Scott Bath Tissue 4 roll - $3.19x2 – [$1 off for 2 + $1 off mnf. Cpn.] = $4.19/8rolls or $0.52/roll (Read on to Rite-Aid sort of hilarious with their ad.)

-Candy: Mars, Hershey’s, Fun Packs, Theathre Box
A lot of $0.99 deals but you have to buy 3
Cpns for a lot of candy, I don’t remember the unit price.
-Save $1 for 2 packs mostly.
-Buy $10 get $5 rebate on candy

----------------------------------

Rite-Aid:

*Pepsi & Pepsi Products 12pck. – 4/$12 with ad cpn.

*Scott Bath Tissue 20 roll - $11.99 or $0.5995/roll. Mom usually goes by $0.50 a roll as cheap. The funny thing was that the ad advertised “Less than 60 cents a roll” and it’s like $0.0005 from 60 cents. Ridiculous advertising.

*Candy: Hershey’s or Mars - 2/$4 after $1 off rebate.
-8 or 10 pack candies (Hershey’s, Baby Ruth, M&Ms) - $0.99
-Theatre-Style Boxed Candy (Mike & Ikes, Dots, Junior Mints, Milk Duds) - $0.88 (cheaper than Walgreens)

*Rite-Aid products, 50% regular retail. My new Rite Aid just opened so we have a coupon $2 for spending $10 on Rite-Aid products. I was planning on getting cotton swabs, $1.99 original I think, so half that is $1 for 300 pack. Not bad.

*Kotex 2/$4 after $1 off rebate plus $1.25 mnf. Cpn. = $1.75

*Halls Cough Drops - 2/$3 (We pay ridiculous amounts in the winter.)

*BC Brownie Mix - $0.99 (Maybe I have a coupon.)

*Poland Spring Water 24 pck. - $3.99 (Not sure if it’s a deal, I’ll check in with my mom tomorrow.)

*Palmolive Dishwashing Liquid - $0.99 - $0.40 mnf. Cpn. = $0.59. (I usually buy in huge gallons at BJs though.)

----------------------------------

Yay I’m done. Mom is asking me to call T-Mobile to ask about our rebates. Mom had issues with the Post Office not doing their job either. And the deal is, they’re making her pay for the postage again, with no guarantee that’ll it’ll get delivered because the address isn’t verified. Lol. So yeah. Have a nice weekend. 1:19 A.M. Work tomorrow. 2 jobs as a High School Student. How fun.
