Made with durable weather proof material, each pair of gloves is 100% waterproof, windproof, and breathable. Lined with thinsulate, the gloves gather at the wrist with an elasticized wristband to fit any kid’s hand. Head over here to snatch up your gloves before they sell out.

Rite Aid Weekly Scenarios: Spend $5.44 on $132.00 in product!

This is a very exciting kick off to the New Year for Rite Aid as they are running a promotion called “Resolution Rewards”, Earn a $20 +UP reward when you spend $100 in qualifying products.  This promotion will be run 01/01/2012 through 01/28/2012 and is LIMIT 1 per wellness member.  The +UP will expire 02/11/2012.  This promotion will be tracking by transaction and by week, so you have a whole month to earn your $20 +UP.
I realize that everyone does not have a chance to get to Rite Aid each week, therefore, this scenario includes items needed to get you the $20 +UP.  Feel free to choose to do the entire scenario, or pick and choose the items to build upon the total for the four weeks.  Look for the Buy & $ave logo in your ad.  You'll notice that I included a very high end facial moisturizer because it is included in the promotion and it seemed like a great sale!
I have tried my best to find deals that have ways to triple dip in the weekly +UP rewards, Resolution Reward and Wellness+Diabetes Program.  If you have not already signed up for the Wellness+Diabetes, please check it out.  The current promotion for the diabetes is only running through the 01/03/2012 so this deal must be done before then.  A new list of eligible products will begin 01/04/2012.
If you are a Gold/Silver member then you will have to adjust your prices accordingly!
Good luck and please comment below on the items you chose to add into your Resolution Rewards scenario!

Make sure you also check out my scenario where you can profit $15 from purchasing a Prepaid visa card at Rite Aid starting 1/01!

In this weeks transaction you will pay $5.44 for $132 in product!! That is a 96% savings!!
