I went to Rite Aid bright and early to try this scenario. I do suggest you check with your store to see if they allow BOGO coupon with a BOGO sale. Many do, but you may want to check in advance.
You also may want to make sure you store has adequate stock. My store had plenty, and most stores will restock sometime during the week if the don’t have them.
Wonder why I would want so many Stayfree? These packs will last only about 3 months between the 4 women that I will share them with.
Note: I had a $2.00 peelie for the Dove. If you don’t have this peelie, use this scenario below buying the Degree. If you want the Dove, there are coupons for $1.00/1 Dove available in the 06/07 Red Plum. Your profit would be $1.00 less.
See the comments for additional information – as you ask questions I will update there!

janaki panneerselvam says
does ultra thin count towards stayfree rebate?
Shannon says
I am not sure which the Stayfree are.. but I will check when I visit the store.
Angel says
I just called three Rite Aids in my town, and NONE of them will accept the BOGO coupons. I’m SO disappointed! :(
Sue says
I am hoping to try going to Rite Aid soon. My problem is they will not take the $5 off a $25 coupon unless the total you are paying – after coupons is $25. This is frustrating!! I did get the umbrella for $5.29, but they refused to take the $5 off coupon, even after I showed a receipt via the web on my iphone. They claim the total must be $25 after coupons.

Hello Everyone,
Well I’ve been intently following everyone’s comments on different things that come up here and there. I’m fairly new to couponing. I figure it is worth trying. So here are some of my up and ups!! I did this deal at one Rite Aid. The manager said that he couldn’t do it. I then went to a different Rite Aid and asked this specific question…”Does Rite Aid take a BOGO coupon on sale items?” He then asked for the coupon and said, “I don’t see why not.” I then went on to get the items to purchase. When I got to the counter he was very plesent as you all know that it takes time to ring up the items and coupons. The coupons wouldn’t go through. He then said he knew why I asked the beginning question and said that he would take them anyway because he knew he would get his money back. That being said, the transaction was difficult to complete but IT DID COMPLETE! I didn’t make as much profit because I bought some cereal for my two boys and had $.50 bandaid coupons. The degree coupon wouldn’t print but I thought I had the $1 one that would work. It didn’t for the item but I had a $1.50 coupon that he took anyway. $24 PROFIT is still sweet! The other up and up…I am an independent carrier for the local paper. Entering this coupon world has been both fun yet very time consuming and I think now that I’m MAYBE getting the nack of it. In the warehouse that I work at is a recycle newspaper bin where carriers drop off their papers that they didn’t need and excess inserts are placed. I glean out of those bins. This past week was an easy one. There were multi packs of bundles of the Flairs (the place were the coupons are located). I always, always, always take the extra coupons to my church because we are getting ready to enter a building project and each family is wondering were they are going to get the money. I know where my family is going save and give (it is with the saving in coupons) This week I have an OVERAGE of coupons because of my gleaning find. If any of you live in the Richmond VA area need this weeks coupons please just let me know. mannyaprl@gmail.com I would be happy to clip any that you would like more of. April
Shannon says
April,
I am glad you were successful. Welcome to couponing!
JW says
There are no prints available for this campaign.
What’s the deal with the Degree coupon not printing?
Shannon says
The Degree coupon ran out of prints a day ago. If you read in the comments there are some alternative options for Degree or Dove coupons.
Tamra says
This is my 1st time on this site. Great info.
I just did the SCR for the pads and they only counted 5 out of the 10 pads because the other 5 were rung up as 0.00 so in order to get the rebate you would have to actually have 13 that ring up at 3.99
If you buy 26 or 28 if doing 2 orders ( 14/14)then you will have no issues.
I hope that makes sence.
Have a great day.
Shannon says
Tamra,
Actually if you use the exact scenarios I listed, the Listerine and Band Aids count towards the SCR and work out perfectly without buying more pads.
Tamra says
That is great. I am new to the scr program as are others and I thought that it was $50 counting all pads, not just the ones that ring up 3.99, if they like me just bought the pads, they would need to get the amount of pads I mentioned earlier. This is just fyi for those since this is what I noticed with my own scr.
mia says
Where did you get all the Stayfree coupons? Thanks.
kathy Tannahill says
I just ordered some from the coupon clippers they have lots and they mail them very quickly

kathy Tannahill says

At cvs i tried with the sobe life water and she told me i had to pay for one to get two free since i had no other explanation i jus accepted it i really appreciate you thanx
kathy
Devon says
Seriously Shannon, this deal made my DAY yesterday! Okay, I won’t lie, it’s making today happier as well. LOL! Now I just need to keep thinking about the free Stayfree so I don’t get mad that I used my Wacky Mac at Weis last week instead of the Giant PA Bogo sale this week! Oh well!
Nicole says
Did your second Band-Aid coupon beep? I’ve never shopped at Rite Aid, but my second coupon always beeps on the $0.00 item during a BOGO sale at Walgreens. Sometimes the cashier won’t let me use it.
Shannon says
No beeps with any of the coupons Nicole.
Swap Savers says
I also figured out this deal
FREE 12 Bottles of Listerine after Coupons and Rebates at Rite Aid (and EARN $6.12)
http://www.swapsavers.com/forum/topics/free-12-bottles-of-listerine
Shannon says
Nice idea! Too bad I Can’t do both!
hollie says
so you can do two transactions for the spend 50 and get the 25 gift card thing? It does not all have to be at once? I wondered, it does not say anywhere. Are you sure you will get back the $25.?
You are amazing! I love it!
Shannon says
Yes Hollie you can do two tickets.
Yes I am sure I will get the $25.00 back.
I am a Rite Aid junkie. I have been doing SCR’s for a long time.
hollie says
Thank you for the reply. I was not sure. I appreciate your help!!!
You Rock Girl!
Jessica says
Well I mixed and matched as i really wanted liners. So I got everything for free after SCR, but I did not make the money you did. I did end up with 10 cartons of pads, 13 cartons of liners, 2 boxes of bandaids, listerine mouthwash for my son, and Degree Deodarant and I made about 4 bucks….not a bad take I would say. Thank you again for this monster deal!!! Now I will just give my aunt the pads and donate the rest!! Good day….
Cindy says
Shannon, I bow down to the Coupon Queen of Rite Aid!
Charlene@MyFrugalAdventures says
WOW! Great job and so glad you obviously have a friendly Rite Aid! I am going to link to this :)
Amy says
I am a bit confused. You wrote that you bought and used Degree coupon but Dove is in the picture. Does the Degree coupon work for Dove?
Shannon says
Amy,
See the updated post for the Dove/Degree difference– I had a coupon that most people probably won’t have, so I used the Degree in the scenario so that everyone could have the same OOP. However, if you want to get Dove (which I prefer personally), use the $1.00/1 coupon mentioned in the post.
Thanks for reading!
lynn says
how did you get so many coupons this early?? Did you figure out the Huggies deal – saw one on Hip2Save.com – needs a modification but could work…
Shannon says
Working on it Lynn.
I bought extra inserts, so I could test it for the readers — Normally, I would not. I ended up having to buy 4 papers – I got inserts from neighbors. They all think I am crazy but I don’t care.
I am working on the huggies deal. It doesn’t work the way its laid out.
lynn says
awesome – cannot wait!! I have an 8month old – so I have years of diapers ahead!! I ordered the stayfree BOGO from coupon clippers (my 1st purchase!!) I just need to ask mgr if they will honor the bogo on bogo. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR POSTS – I am just starting to be able to “SEE” deals for myself, but appreciate all your hard work in figuring them out!
Jessica says
Shannon, can you get panty liners on this deal? Or does it have to be pads? Thanks for any info you might have. I am very new to this all, very very new!!!
Shannon says
Jessica,
See my post for the Dove/Degree thing. The coupons are specifically for Stayfree Maxi Pads, so you could not use them on the liners. If you wanted to do this with Carefree, these is a coupon for $1.00/2 Carefree in today’s insert.
You could probably end up with free carefree liners, but not much of a money maker.
I am not exactly sure of the Carefree price.
Jessica says
OK, thank you…looks liek I iwll have to figure out a deal to mix and match them both to get my best deal. Then just give the pads away or donate them to a shelter.
Shannon says
Jessica,
Just a suggestion – check out the ultra thin ones – they are so thin almost like a liner! They are small packages you see in the pictures.
