Rite Aid Challenge-Week 3

So, this week there were SO many ways to turn these UP+ REWARDS into cold hard CASH, I couldn't resist. Tthe crazy thing is (and only this can happen at Rite Aid) is that even though I used up almost all my UP+ REWARDS buying these items with single check rebates attached to them, most of those items qualified for the Winter Reward Bonus, so I got my $20 bonus!  LOVE IT!  Here is what I got this week (minus one item not pictured...if you strategic shoppers have been reading other blogs, you will know what it is...wink, wink):
