Will the downloadable version of McAfee be available as part of the rebate? In the ad it only lists the boxed item number. I know we don’t get rewards for online purchases anymore, but downloadable software is tax free in my state (California). I don’t have any rewards to burn but I have some gift cards I would like to monetize. Too bad the rebate limit is a measly 1.

Besides all the other free and cheap items listed, the Viva/Scott/Cottonelle will be a great deal with the $3/2 CVS coupon (currently available) and whatever manufacturer’s coupons we have. $7.54 for 2 then minus 3/2 CVS and probably 2x.50 mq’s and $1 ECB = 2.54 for 2 or 1.27 each!!

pickupthevalues.com has $1/1 for the Scott Tube-Free 9 roll (and other coupons for Cottonelle/Viva/Kleenex stuff)…but they expire 2 weeks from print date, so anyone wanting to use them for this deal should wait at least a few days before getting them.

If I have all my credit cards under one online account sign-in, how do I separate them so each has its own online account sign-in?

@doveroftke said in Three AMEX Blue rewards card...merge them?:

Leave them separate so you can take advantage of Amex Offers multiple times.

Is there a certain combined credit limit among several Am Ex cards in which you are more likely for an Am Ex account review? At one time I heard it was a combined credit line of over 25K.

Get $2 ECB wyb Purex 43.5-50 oz $2.99 Limit 1

There’s a $1 purex on ibotta limit 3 per receipt.

I’ve always just earned 5 points for this. I think you only get 50 points if you have one of top few scores.

Can’t wait to see what other Gift cards will be included in this deal (besides Bass Pro Shops, Nike, and Google Play), page 6 bottom left. Great way to get a $15 ECB from buying a $50 gift card for Black Friday. I know Kohls was one last year. Limit 1 offer.

Bonne Bell Lip Smackers, single pack, will be a steal if you have gold or silver; 300PP on 2. RA site shows Strawberry flavored one (out of stock online) as regular price $1.99, but that’s the only one-pack shown on the site. So: with gold, 2 for $3.18, less 300PP = $0.18; Silver would be 2 for $0.58, which rocks too! Great stocking stuffer idea! I found several listed on the website last night and they should still be there. When you are on the website, do a search using “smacker” and over 30 come up but only 4 that are $1.99.

@my4mainecoons said in RITE AID L2C:

@mrvietnam I think it belongs in the Grocery Drugstore forum. OT isn’t related to any deals at all.

Exactly, his post really wasn’t related to a deal. It was related to the off topic subject of Rite Aid L2C, but I guess either forum would have probably been more appropriate than PhatWallet Support. Perhaps you’re right. Although Rite Aid L2C is not related to a specific deal per se, it is related in a general sense to the topic of the grocery forum and issues that you will face. The more important issue I hope he was finally able to figure how to send a message to someone on this site and I hope he was able to log on to the RiteAid.com site and use his L2C coupons again.

Maybe he put it in this forum because early on in his post he said he couldn’t figure out how to send a message to someone on this site, but I agree this thread probably belongs in the “off topic” forum more than this forum.

@barrytuneup said in RITE AID L2C:

I can’t find out how to email someone on this site, but here goes…
I have figured how how to send a message to someone on the site. Please read this link: https://phatwalletforums.com/topic/2004/sending-a-message-to-someone-on-phatwallet

@ctgolfer said in Sending a message to someone on Phatwallet:

You need to click on the person’s avatar then click on the box that appears which brings you to their profile page. Click on circle with three vertical dots and then click start chat

Thanks.

I think I may have figured it out. You click on the “users” icon at the top of the screen and then click on the user you want to talk to and then click on the three vertical dots on the far right-hand side of the screen and click on “start new chat with xxxxxxx”. Is that correct? So a message on phatwallet is called a “chat”?

What is the process for sending a message to someone on Phatwallet?

Has anyone actually redeemed the coupon at a store? I wonder if they will take printable free coupons.

@my4mainecoons said in Rite Aid 10/29 - 11/4 (Free Remfresh a/ pp and man Q):

@mrvietnam I got Olay Regenerist facial cream RR $33.99 here. I did BOG50% then I got 3 Pantene using the $5/3 mq.
Regenerist q: There are $2/1 mq in this past weekend’s P&G insert. There’s a $2/1 L2c.

Ohhh. I think I’m remembering you don’t have L2c. Too bad. If you use the $5/3 mq the $2/1 L2c Pantene still attaches.

I now do have L2C, Maine. I was just able to resolve the issues I had signing on to Riteaid.com this morning. Thanks for the scenario idea.

What worked for me, Barry, was for them to delete the account registered to my Plenti account and then I reregistered on the Rite Aid website and it worked, finally. Before I could not log in to the Rite Aid website either. It kept saying I had the wrong username/password combination, but when I tried to look up my username it said I had mulitple accounts associated with this number. To look me up in the system the rep asked for my Plenti card number. Eventually she was able to tell me my username (which is the same I though ti was from the pre-Plenti era) and she tried to send me a reset for my password, but I never received the e-mail, so she deleted the account and had me reregister at the Rite Aid website. During the sign up process at RiteAid.com it had me enter my Plenti card number and now everything works fine. I am not sure what happened. Before Plenti I used the Rite Aid website all the time, but ever since Plenti I have never been able to log in to RiteAid.com until now.

Now I am a happy camper. I am able to log in to RA for both of our family’s accounts (I have one account and my wife has one) and load the online coupons for both accounts. I never had an issue logging into Plenti for both accounts it was just Rite Aid.com, but now that issue has been resolved, at least for me.

Not being able to log in frustrated me greatly. I remember about a year ago there was big MM if you placed an online order at RA.com (I think it was for Crest Whitening products but I don’t remember for sure), but I wasn’t able to place an online order at the time because I couldn’t log in.

I can’t figure out how to send a message to anyone on this site either. The process seemed easier on Fat Wallet in that regard.

Any ideas how to maximize both the $10 in PP wyb $30 at the store (limit 2) and the $15 off $50 manufacturer rebate (limit 1). My wife likes the pricey Olay face cream that goes for $32.99 at the cheaper stores and $33.99 at the pricier stores. If I went to the cheaper store and bought two using the buy one get 50% off the other store sale this week that would bring me up to $49.49, but I would still be $0.51 short for the rebate and $10.51 short for the second $10 in PP. There are no manufacturer coupons that I could find. If I bought them at the more expensive store my total would be $50.99, enough for the P&G rebate but still $9.01 short for the second $10 in PP. I guess I would just have to buy something else to reach the mark.

@meed18 said in FREE $5-$10 Amazon Gift Card For Submitting 10-20 Coke Product Codes:

I would wait to enter until you have 10 codes ready to go. If they end the promotion (it says while supplies last and there were lots of “sold out” rewards in their last platform) before you enter all 10, you will probably lose whatever you entered.

So far I received $30 in amazon credit. If I had known they were going to run a promo as good as this one, I wouldn’t have tried to liquidate so many caps right before the old rewards platform shut down. Oh well, I’m just happy I kept collecting caps.

I thought the limit was 2 Amazon cards ($10 total). You must have multiple Coke Rewards accounts set up, right?

@sweetclover said in Rite Aid 10/29 - 11/4 (Free Remfresh a/ pp and man Q):

@mrvietnam I just posted this P&G Rebate offer in HD, & my4mainecoons replied saying, “Works well with this week’s P&G offer at RA.” This is different than the AARP one from MrC, and is available to everyone.

Great. Thanks. Here is a link to your post in HD for the lazy.

@my4mainecoons said in Rite Aid Black Friday Ad Scan 2017:

@mrvietnam OK I’ll ask the question in MisterCheap’s thread.

I am more than happy to have one thread for Rite Aid Black Friday and it makes more sense, but I always thought the guy with the earlier posting is the thread that is kept. Maybe the mods could enlighten me of the policy. If anything I would have thought fivetalents thread would have been mirrored in the grocery forum also. If it is about having the freebies posted that makes it unique. I posted the freebies in fivetalents thread 5 days ago. MC just created his thread two days ago.

@barrytuneup said in Rite Aid B&M 11/23-25 Freebie Items, Money Makers ac/points, Gift Card Deals In store with Plenti Card:

thanks MRC. You left out bigwin 24 pack 1/2 price 1.74!!! I recommend hitting a few stores early on Thanksgiving day. Probably a limit.

Minor detail but the Big Win water 24 pack will be $1.75 (according to the ad), not $1.74.

@my4mainecoons said in Rite Aid Black Friday Ad Scan 2017:
Can’t we all get along?
Sounds very Rodney King’esque.

@my4mainecoons said in Rite Aid Black Friday Ad Scan 2017:

@mrvietnam Why are there 2 RA BF threads? Mr.C has one in HD and says its unique because it talks about free stuff. Can’t we all get along?

This is not my thread, but it was created before MisterCheap’s thread so I am posting to it. I am not sure why MisterCheap made a new Rite Aid Black Friday thread when fivetalents already created one 9 days ago.

Just wanna add that Zims machine Q expires 12/31, but I’d print them now because sometimes certain Qs get pulled from the machine early

There’s a $2 zims q at the coupon printing machine for those whose stores have them. Some kleenex boxes have 25 cent peelies, I’m not suggesting you steal them, but I might just move the boxes with peelies to the back in the hopes that they’re still around for BF. There’s also a $0.50/3 Kleenex boxes/packs printable coupon on coupons.com, but don’t print it quite yet as it expires two weeks from when it is printed.

There is a $0.75/1 coupon on listerine.com for Listerine floss, so that will be a $1.50 MM wyb the limit of 2.

$10 OFF
Visa® Gift Cards or Mastercard Gift Card, When you purchase a $150 Visa® or Mastercard gift card. Limit 1.*
Offer Type: One-time Store Coupon
Expires: 11/7/2017

Might be a hot deal if you use the right credit card (such as Am Ex Blue Preferred) which gives 6% for supermarket purchases and you buy a variable load card. Might also be useful if you need to reach a minimum spend amount for a credit card bonus offer.

@mrvietnam said in FREE $5-$10 Amazon Gift Card For Submitting 10-20 Coke Product Codes:

Will the Coke site keep track of how many codes you entered or do you have to enter all 10 at one time? In other words, can I bank codes towards this offer?

Answering my own question, I entered 5 codes and Coke Rewards keeps track of how many codes you have entered, so you don’t have to enter all 10 codes at one time.

@barrytuneup said in Rite Aid B&M 11/23-25 Freebie Items, Money Makers ac/points, Gift Card Deals In store with Plenti Card:

thanks MRC. You left out bigwin 24 pack 1/2 price 1.74!!! I recommend hitting a few stores early on Thanksgiving day. Probably a limit.

Good price on the bottled water. We drink a lot of bottled water and I like when I can get it cheap.Thanks barrytuneup.

No good surprise offers for me. Just have a $17 off $100 and a $10 off $50.

@my4mainecoons said in Rite Aid 10/29 - 11/4 (Free Remfresh a/ pp and man Q):

Word on the street is that Remfresh isn’t giving PP.

Since Remfresh is advertised this week in their ad as giving Plenti points, a simple call or chat to Plenti customer service would give you the points or at least get the ball rolling so eventually you would get the points. I’m not planning to buy Remfresh because even getting it for free and just paying sales tax is a waste of money (to me at least) if it is for something I know I don’t need or want.

@my4mainecoons said in Rite Aid 10/29 - 11/4 (Free Remfresh a/ pp and man Q):

If you’re looking to burn points this would be a good week to buy paper towels (Bounty) then submit for the AARP P&G rebate Mr. Cheap posted.

For those who are interested in the P&G rebate and happen to be a member of AARP and get their magazine, here is Mister Cheap’s link about the rebate. Also note that the $50 spend is AFTER coupons are applied. This week there is a get 1000 pts ($10) wyb $30 limit 2 offer on several P&G products, so if you spend $60 worth and did not use manufacturer coupons, you could get $20 back in pp from the Rite Aid offer and $15 from the MIR offer (given you are a member of AARP or at least have access to someone’s AARP magazine). So that would mean you would get $60 of product (plus tax) for just $25.

These are all 3 day deals, from Thursday, 11/23 through Saturday, 11/25. Rite Aid stores are typically open on Thanksgiving Day, so that is the best time to shop if you want the items to still be in stock.

@niniss said in Rite Aid 10/29 - 11/4 (Free Remfresh a/ pp and man Q):

MrVietnam, i was just wondering if you were continuing with the Rite Aid weekly post. Really missed your weekly posts at FW. I stopped going to Rite Aid after the FW shut down. Without your weekly post, i literally have no clue what to buy at RiteAid. lol

Yes, that is my plan to continue with the Rite Aid weekly posts. The trouble is the deals have all but evaporated over there. Unfortunately it is not like how it was several years ago when there was a whole list of freebies and MMs each week, but I like the idea of having a weekly thread so we can all share what weekly and monthly deals that are there and a place where we can talk things Rite Aid. Some (maybe many) of us have a lot of Plenti points and are looking for ways to either redeem them or roll them. All though Rite Aid’s Black Friday ad has been better in the past it is still full with quite a few deals and some freebies.

@lorenw said in Office Depot rolling rewards ? YMMV:

@trudi said in Office Depot rolling rewards ? YMMV:

I rolled rewards with batteries a couple times, I’m new to OD and didn’t realize it was a special feature of just the batteries though. I tried it with labels a few weeks ago and that did not roll. I wonder why batteries are special.

From what others have said in various message boards, it is the difference between a set $ amount on a rewards, vs 100% back on reward

The batteries say, $15.98 back on rewards, so in theory that is the magic phrase to look for

So having a set dollar amount back in rewards looks like is the phrase that pays.

Do you think if I paid completely in rewards for a set dollar amount back in rewards would I earn the full rewards offered? I was afraid to try it with the order I placed today. I only used about $12 in rewards.

I’ve heard that rolling rewards works for battery purchases for some time now. I am not sure exactly t works, but it does. Thanks for the idea of ordering online with the Ebates 3% and the 30$ off a $30 order code. I think I will do the same thing.

The one thing I am not sure about though is if you can pay completely with rewards or if it is important to pay some by credit card in order for the rolling to happen.

Not bad. I got two packs of Duracell batteries for free, rolled some rewards, and made $8 with the 3% and 30% off offer. Thanks OP.

Will the Coke site keep track of how many codes you entered or do you have to enter all 10 at one time? In other words, can I bank codes towards this offer?
