@penguin110 said in AARP Join Now, or Renew, $55 for 5 Years + Get A Free Gift | Expires June 4:

Benefits include 15% discount at Denny’s, maximum discount not to exceed $10 and $40 off a Walmart+ annual membership.

Given most Denny’s have closed and Walmart+ often offers 1/2 price membership promos these benefits are useless IMO.

Plus I wait for free annual membership offers after cashback or other promos, we had that last year, think it was a MM with stacked offers. Got $10 from TCB, and $8 from a chase offer on a $15 annual.

I see RA filed their WARN notice for NJ. looks like 6/4/25 is when everything will hit the fan:

Rite Aid
Company Location: Philadelphia, PA
Affected Employees: Throughout NJ May Rolling basis beginning on 6/4/25 1122

@ctujackbauer did you read that article?
What has been sold is the RX files, not the stores.
Rite Aid has sold the pharmacy services of most of its stores across the United States to several rivals.

The bankrupt company announced the fire sale Thursday, with CVS Pharmacy, Walgreens, Albertsons and Kroger scooping up Rite Aid’s pharmacy services at more than 1,000 locations.

Yes, that is correct. @ctujackbauer please edit your info.

@sonofzeus when posting deals like this, please put YMMV, not everyone has a USBank account/visa, not everyone gets the same Paypal offers, etc. Please be mindful of your titles as they apply to everyone on phatwallet, not just your own personal situation. Thx

all this is posted in Drug/Grocery already.

I only go there to pick up a monthly prescription for my wife. The shelves have pretty much remained bare since their last bankruptcy.

indeed they have. for a time managers were telling me around the holidays/1st of the year things would be restocked, it never happened. Which made this news not the least bit surprising. I’ve met many nice/hard working employees at Rite Aid, I hope as many stores can be saved by another party as possible so people have jobs. However I am not holding my breath given the current climate for retail drug stores.

@MrVietnam Sad day, but not surprising. Have hardly shopped at RA since last summer.
