Riteaid Rebate Rainchecks 101

When I inquire with them their stock answer is 4-8 weeks. In the past it would take up to 8 weeks. Lately, it seems it is so quick - a week!

Hope that helps.

I didn't use your template (I did not see this thread before I did my own fax recently), but I did use my own cover letter, followed by the receipt on a second page (which I had copied to make it darker). My rebate showed up on my online account within a few days, and I should have the check soon.


I think the trick is to give them all of the information and make sure the receipt is readable.

Not sure exactly what you are asking here. It seems you are asking how to print the template I attached to the OP.

- Click the template attachment. It will call up on your computer.
- click print

Is this what you mean?

Paypal - no
You get a check in the mail. A real check. Put in your bank real money check. Not a riteaid gift certificate.
Go to riteaid.com and sign up on their website for an account. You do it all online. Easy Peasy.

I advise you to read the riteaid 101 and other stickys before you ask any more questions. All your questions are probably covered there.
This thread is about rainchecks and rebates, not about the rebate program....there are other threads about how to do rebates. We should try to keep our forums clean.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

absolutely. I can not recommend enough that you start by reading. Start with the Couponing Intro section on hcw.com. Read it thoroughly until your eyeballs bleed.

Then make a list of all the stores near you. Proceed to read the 101 that is available for each store near you on hcw.com. These 101's are super. There is one for Riteaid, and practically every major store near you.

Then start with riteaid rebates...and walgreens rebates if you have one near you. Then move on to coupons, double coupons, combining double coupons with sales, catalinas, and more complicated deals like cvs, etc.

But this thread is for discussion on riteaid rainchecks for rebates, not newbies seeking advice. I respectfully ask that you keep the thread on topic...besides you will receive more help if you post your requests for assistance in the couponing intro section!

Good luck!!
