So, do you need to get 4 newspapers in order to get for of those $8 off coupons?
yeah, you need to get your hands on at least 4
i had only 3 and was able to still make money on the deal buying 6 products.
All in 1 transaction?
Awesome! Going tomorrow morning, hope its not sold out!
Yes, I did it in one transaction. It was so easy! My store had a great selection. The combination of items is endless! The limit is one reward, so hopefully that will leave plenty for everyone!
Very excited to give it a try in the morning! This will be my first time couponing at Rite Aid, I’m sure I will be hooked after this!
I still can’t figure out how exactly my makeup total came to $32 even, but I’m not complaining. I got out of Rite Aid with $0 OOP and my $10+UP. I don’t wear makeup so I’m planning on donating them to a women’s shelter. It’s a win-win.
So the $10 +UP is for when your Covergirl makeup total is $32 before coupons? What’s the trigger?
Nevermind, found it on the FRONT page of the Rite-Aid ad – doh! I see that it is when you spend $30 on the P&G products listed. It’s late, I’m going to bed now.
Is anyone submitting for the p&g rebate? Spend $50 on qualifying product (Covergirl is one of the products) and get a $10 rebate.

I was wondering the same thing…
Just did this deal this morning and it worked beautifully! Thanks for the example!
How do you know ahead of time what products the computer is going to scan at 50% off? I never can figure out what is going to be matched up.
I was going to ask the same question as Darla. I went to Rite-Aid but I kept coming up with different amounts. I went ahead and added the 4 highest amounts then added 50% off each of the remaining items. Then I looked at the example above and thought maybe it’s the order they are rung up. Any advice or input?
I think it is the order they are rung up. I made the mistake yesterday and ended up having to grab a brow pencil on the fly. I stil made money on hte deal but it could of been a lot more if I would of rang the highest items first and the lowest at 1/2 off.
Question, I thought Rite Aid did not allow overage?
You have to reach $30 to get the $10 +Up Reward, but you have to have $32 or more to use the four $8/2 covergirl makeup coupons. I ended up getting 4 Blushes and 4 Concealers and my total came to $29 and change, so I had to pick up some eyeshadow to go over $32 and paid about $1 out-of-pocket.
I went yesterday and my calculations were off because the register did not ring in the highest priced items first and than take the lowest items at 50% off. Instead it took the first two items and figured which one was highest and rung that one up and the second was 50% off. Now that I know that I could of bought higher priced items and had them rung together.
My receipt looked like this:
liquid blast 8.99
concealer 3.49 (regularly 6.99)
concealer 6.99
blush 2.84 (regularly 5.69)
bronzer 4.39
cheeker blush 2.19 (regularly 4.39)
I had to run and get eye brow pencil at 3.49 to get the deal. I used (3) $8.00 off/2 coupon so still a great deal
can somebody tell me whether i would be able to get the new up reward for the covergirl deal starting next weeks ad if i already got the deal last week??
