   Hi,
   Thanks for all of this great information…. I’m a newbie and this really helps . Quick question. At Rite Aid I purchased 4 boxes of the tissues and it kicked out $1 Reward. I was thinking it would kick out 4. Was I wrong in my thinking?

     You should have gotten a $4 UP reward. I’ve been reading reports that people are buying 10 and get back a $13 UP reward due to an unadvertised promo it’s making it a $3 moneymaker.

   Thanks for the follow up. Unfortunately the store in our area only printed out the $1. I had thought about trying the buy 10 scenerio, but they were out of everything except 4 tissue boxes….sigh. Still blessed to get the one for free.

   Thanks ~ the 1 limit adjustment would explain it. I also just noticed that at Walgreens I purchased 2 of the Joint Juice drinks and it too only kicked out a single $10 RR. So, I think I’ll be taking back one of the Joint Juice drinks. I wonder if the adjustment to 1 item rebate is catching on?

     Walgreens is different. You can only get 1 RR printed for each item per transaction. You needed to spit the 2 joint juices into 2 transactions to get multiple RR’s. You could have purchased the joint juice & Full fast appetiate control in a single transaction & gotten 2 $10 RR’s.

     CVS & Rite Aid will print a limit with the ad on the # of ECB’s or + Up rewards you can get. Those can be done in a single transaction.

     Each store has it’s own policy which can be confusing,

     Thanks Sakura for letting us know the limit had been added for the RA deal.
