Today for Money Making Monday I’ll gab about my newest obsession (like I needed another one!): REBATES! I love, love, LOVE a good rebate. Especially when it’s for something I paid little or nothing out-of-pocket for at CVS or Walgreens in the first place! Right now there are a couple of good rebates out there that you ALL should take advantage of!! The first is the Sambucol immune system booster I mentioned in my Super Savings Saturday post that is a monthly ECB item at CVS this month. This stuff costs $12.99, use a $2/$10 coupon to buy it, pay $10.99, get TEN ECBS back and then send in for a FULL rebate using this form and get a check for $12.99! WOOHOO! Also – it actually TASTES good! Bobby, Joshua and I have all tried it, and Joshua, my THREE YEAR OLD, sucked it down like it was candy. SO – getcha some!!
Now my good friends at Glade and Walgreens have teamed up for another stellar deal on Glade Scented Oil candles. Now, I need more GSOCs like I need a hole in the head, but GUESS WHAT?? I got FOUR MORE today because THEY ARE FREE!! They are B1G1 free at Walgreens this week, and there are B1G1 free coupons at coupons.com, PLUS there was a coupon in yesterday’s paper for a FULL REBATE up to 7.99!! So, since my receipt shows the price paid at 6.99, I am getting $6.99 back on my FREE CANDLE. Holla!! (Note: if you didn’t get the coupons in the paper, you can get one of these forms on eBay for about $1. You would still make $5.99!)
Another awesome deal in the newspaper yesterday and also available online here is the RX Essentials rebate. RX Essentials are vitamins you take that go along with prescription meds that you might be taking. This week they are B1G1 free at CVS. Use two $5 off coupons found at coupons.com, get 2 bottles for $4.99 (or use a $2/$10 coupon and pay $2.99!!), and then send in for the rebate and get a check for $14.99. You just made $10-$12! I got these vitamins for my mom, and sent the rebate in for myself, but I am going to go back and get some more for my Grandma and send another rebate in her name, as most rebates are one per household and Gma can always use a few extra dollars. (She is also getting a Glade Candle rebate! Woot Woot!)
Ok – final rebate for the week! Purell Gentle Foam is on sale at Walgreen’s for $3.49. There was a $1 off manufacturer’s coupon in yesterday’s paper, and there is a $1 off coupon in the Walgreens ad which you can stack. So…use both coupons, get your Purell for $1.49, and send in the rebate form here for a $3.49 rebate! Yee-ha! Sanitized hands that now hold an extra $2! Rock on!
Ok, my peeps, I think I am about rebated-out. Plus I have a lot of rebate FORMS to fill out and mail so I better stop here. 🙂 For more Money-Makin’ ideas, head over to Money Saving Mom!
**Edited to add**
I just got a rebate check in the mail for a purchase of Pert Plus. The rebate form said get $5 back on your purchase of two bottles of Pert Plus. I got two bottles that were on clearance at Walgreen’s for $1.79 each. I used a $1.50 off two manufacturer’s coupon, and paid a total of $2.33 with tax. The check I got today was for the full $5.00! So I hope that helps – most of the time manufacturer’s will reimburse you your purchase price before coupons – in this case even more than that!
