Mine's better than urs hubs!! LOL

It seems like I always try to get here. . .but never do!!! I have to get better at that!! LOL

I have been coming up with all kinds of stuff that I need to blog about, but I have time constraints. . .so this is just a "quickie" (LOL @ ME) to update everyone on my latest and greatest deal!! woohoo!!

BTW, is anyone impressed yet?? : ) Well, it doesn't matter cuz I am! I am also getting richer!! hehehehe

So. . .on Tuesday, I had to take Bob his work boots (cuz he forgot them and got in trouble at work) - Nothing like getting home from work in Selinsgrove (which is 45 mins north of my house) and then having to drive the whole way to Harrisburg (which is 45 mins SOUTH of my house) immediately after I walked in the door.
Uhm, yeah, what was the point (other than I am an awesome wife hehehehe)? Oh, yeah . . . I decided to stop at Rite Aid on my way to the "burg" because I never go through Halifax anymore, so to go to RA is an "extra" trip that is out of my way.
Now, if I could just teach Bob how to be as cheap and as savvy as me, then I would be able to have him stop there on his way home for all the good deals. hahahahaha I crack myself up!! ; )

RA is having a great week for Single Check Rebates (SCR) which is awesome because that means more FREE stuff! LOL I love it!!
If you are wondering how to find out what is on sale, or how to get these "SCRs" all you have to do is go to http://www.riteaid.com/ and read all about it. AND it is FREE to sign up. . .so what the heck are you waiting for??? You just buy the stuff, enter the receipts on line, then get a check!! Wow!! that is my kind of $$ -- all you need to do is shop to get FREE $$$ -- I love that too!

Okay onto the deal. I have been wanting a memory card for my phone for a while. Bob wanted one too, so he just goes and buys one for like $20 at Wal-Mart. he can never wait for anything to go on sale! UGH! drives me nuts!! Well, phooey on him. . .I guess I showed him up this time!! LOL
RA has SanDisk 2G Micro Cards (and some other memory cards as well, but this is the one I needed for my phone) on sale for $14.99 (reduced from $19.99) + a $5 SCR when you purchase one. . .which actually makes it $9.99
Another SCR was for the Carmex Moist SPF Lip Balm priced at $2.29 with a $2.29 rebate = FREE Woot!! Lucky for me, my RA only had ONE left. . .
I could not find the other Carmex rebate, I had picked up the wrong one. . .but I still needed to get it because I had a coupon for $5 off when you spend $20 -- and I was just shy of $20. If I would have found the SCR Carmex, it would have been free and my purchase would have been over $20 too. . . but ya know. . .it don't ever work out the way you want it to.
My point?? I had to pay $2.72 for this transaction when it could have been free, but my RA ran out of the sale stuff!!! UGH!!! *mean face* LOL

The rundown:
SanDisk Memory = $14.99
Carmex (no SCR) = $ 1.69
Carmex Moisture = $ 2.29
Total = 18.97 - $5 coupon = $13.97 +1.04 (tax) = $15.01
SCRs = $5 (sandisk) and $2.29 (carmex mois) = $7.29 New total = $7.72
This shopping trip took my RA Fall Savings total up to over $50 which means I get yet another $5 SCR (YAY!) which makes the entire total for this transaction $2.72!!! :)

Eat that hubby! I got a memory card, and two different lip balms for the price of just 1 lip balm. . .yeah, I'm AWESOME!! LOL
