Rite Aid Deals Week of 8/12/08: 30 Free after Rebate Items

October 13, 2008 by Tara Kuczykowski 14 Comments

The closest Rite Aid to me is 30 miles away, but I just had to let my readers know about all the fabulous free after rebate items available this week, a $144.20 value! I’m not that familiar with Rite Aid’s Single Check Rebate program, but from what I gather it’s very similar to Walgreens’ EasySaver Rebates. You can only submit for your rebate once a period, so if you’re planning to do some additional shopping there this month you’ll want to wait to submit for your rebates. If anyone has additional details to share about the SCR program, we’d be forever grateful for your help!

Below you’ll find the list of 30 free after rebate items along with coupon matchups. It’s my understanding that many Rite Aid stores will not accept Internet printable coupons, so YMMV in using these!
