I also used a $5 off $20 Rite-Aid coupon

Org Retail: $36.54
Paid: $2.45


Confused about why I have 2 receipts?

My original total of $6.77 was higher than I expected but couldn't figure out why.
I double checked my receipt before leaving the store and realized I was missing 2 coupons.
I went over to customer service and the clerk was more than happy to take my coupons and refund me $4.32 which brought me down to total out of pocket of $2.45!
Always have a good idea of what your final total should be before you go to the store.
This will help you avoid making a second trip back for a correction or not coming back at all and paying more than you should.

Happy Saving!
