Rite Aid has a ton of store coupons that you get when you watch short little 20-30 second commercials. They put them up for a month at a time, but the coupons that you get are actually good for two months!
Tonight they will change all their videos, so you need to go in and watch/save the coupons for any that you might want during the month of June. You don’t even have to print the coupons out yet. They will save in your account for the entire month of June ready for when you need them.
A few of these coupons even make for great deals next week — just remember after tonight you can’t watch the video anymore!
Here is a list of all the coupons you can earn by watching videos through Saturday night. I’ve made bold the coupons I would definitely watch the videos for if you have time.

You may have heard that yesterday Rite Aid released a new coupon policy. They made a few changes that will be very different for couponers.
There are three main things to note:
- Rite Aid accepts Buy One, Get One Free coupons, however only one coupon can be used for each pair of items purchased. A customer can use one “cents off” coupon in conjunction with the item they are purchasing on a Buy One Get One Free promotion (or with a Buy One Get One Free coupon), although the value of the cents off coupon cannot exceed the selling price of the item.
- Buy One Get One Free coupons cannot be used in conjunction with a Buy One Get One Free promotion.
- Rite Aid may accept up to 4 identical coupons for the same number of qualifying items as long as there is sufficient stock to satisfy other customers within the store manager’s sole discretion.
What does this mean??
The biggest change for most of us will be only allowing one coupon on a B1G1 deal, and not allowing the use of a B1G1 coupon. Why change that? Honestly there is no logical reason. This is the policy we just saw Harris Teeter give up, so it’s frustrating to see a store move backwards in logical reasoning.
The change of 4 like coupons per transaction, isn’t really a problem. For most of us we are only buying one or two of an item, so this new addition will only help reduce some shelf clearing.
How does a store get reimbursed on coupons on a B1G1 sale?
First realize when a product is on sale buy one get one free, that is just a sale being offered by the store.
For example:
Pantene B1G1 at $5 is the same sale as if they made Pantene $2.50 each.
In the manufacturer’s eyes you are still buying two products no matter how they ring up and the manufacturer will reimburse one coupon on each item. So for Rite Aid to only accept one “cents off” coupon on a B1G1 deal makes no sense.
Why the Change??
One can only guess why they would go backwards. My guess, they are actually choosing to step down and wait out the coupon craziness that is going on right now. With the changes above you will find better deals on B1G1 items at CVS and Walgreens who both allow the use of B1G1 coupons and (2) coupons on a B1G1 deal. I’m thinking for right now Rite Aid prefers a non couponing clientele and this is there way of quietly going to the back of the line.
Maybe when things in coupon land quiet down we’ll see them come back their senses.
(To be sweet to Rite Aid, they do have good deals with their +UP Rewards system so you’ll still be there, just don’t buy B1G1 deals.)

If you are tired of seeing all the coupons on facebook and not getting them (or if you are tired of giving your personal information out just to get coupons) there is a way to have a BLANK facebook page that lets you get coupons without sharing anything personal!
To get a blank page we are going to create a new facebook profile. You do not need to upload pictures, network with friends, or fill out your profile information. You can simply create the bare minimum of a Facebook account to print your coupons!
Here are 10 simple guiding steps to making a blank Facebook page:
1. Create a free email just for couponing/samples. Great ones out there are: gmail, yahoo, or hotmail. Using a different email than your normal account helps friends and family members not be able to find you.
2. Now go to Facebook.com
3. Fill in all your information – Name, E-mail (use your new one created in #1), Password, Gender, & Birthday
4. Click “Sign Up”.
5. Enter the words you see in the security box.
6. Click “Sign Up”.
7. Click “Skip” on the next three steps (this is key to having a blank profile)
– Skip finding friends.
– Skip updating your profile.
– Skip uploading a profile picture.
8. Now check your email for and open an e-mail from Facebook.
9. Click the link to confirm your e-mail address.
10. Enter the confirmation code provided in the e-mail sent to you (if it asks for it).
Now, you have a Facebook account. Enjoy printing your coupons! To get started checkout all the facebook coupons from yesterday alone.
I have fun news!
Starting tomorrow the Kroger Fuel Rewards program is making a big improvement. You can now earn up to $1 off per gallon of gas with points.
***To learn more about shopping at Kroger and to see all of the deals go here.***
In the past you could use 100 points to get 10¢ off a gallon of gas, but if you had 200 points your discount did not get any bigger. Now you will get 10¢ off for every 100 points you have. So if you have 400 points saved up you’ll get 40¢ off, have 1000 points you’ll get $1 off.
The details of the program:
You earn points from purchases and prescriptions bought in Kroger. You then get a discount at Kroger fuel stations and participating shell stations.
- 1 point for every $1 you spend on groceries (before coupons).
- 100 points for every $50 spent on gift cards (excludes Kroger & Green Dot cards)
- 50 points for every prescription you fill (no points earned if you are using government sponsored health care)
Every region of Kroger handles Fuel Rewards a little differently, so check out your area for more details (note that the increase in savings won’t be updated until tomorrow).
How to maximize your savings:
You earn points for buying gift cards, so buy Shell gas gift cards. Earn points for your gas gift card, and then head to shell stations to use your card and use your fuel rewards!
