Rite-Aid: 1) Frequently Asked Questions 2) Ask questions here

I think its worth a try. I guess whether its worth the hassle depends on how much it is for.

28.00. Not my biggest check ever, but worth any hassle I have to go through!
Thanks for the quick reply!

Noob question (first Rite Aid SCR trip) and apologies if it's been addressed before... (I read through FAQs and didn't see it addressed specifically.)

1) If I have overages due to manufacturer coupons, must I buy something in equal to that value on that receipt to "compensate" for the overages? I guess my fear is that the rebate will be rejected due to "rebate exceeeds total amount paid". Or is that no problem?

2) Is it a problem to pay for an SCR run with a Rite Aid gift card gained from a previous pharmacy transfer deal?

Thanks much!! We all know how easily rebate processing companies like to stamp the big red "REJECT" stamp, so I want to make sure my 'i's are dotted and 't's crossed. :)

This is my first month with the whole SCR thing... yep RiteAid newbie here. Anyway, since tomorrow starts Nov SCR, does that mean that once my purchases from today are credited that I can request my SCR? And does my Fall Savings thing come at the same time?

RA is very generous with rebates and isn't a company that looks for a reason to not send a rebate. Unless the rebate states "spend $5 on x product, get $2 back" or "buy any Revlon item priced $4 or more" any purchase price is ok.

Yep. This is perfectly ok. As a matter of fact, I've paid for SCR items with gift cards earned from previous SCRs and getting the rebate has never been a problem.

Welcome to the RA forum! RA is usually a great place to score some great deals (provided you don't get dumbbell cashiers) and the people on this forum are awesome! Ask away if you have questions.

Yes. Since this is the last day of RA's month, you can request your check once all your rebates have been credited. Your Fall GOS will come separately because Rite Aid SCRs are postcards and always come separately from gift cards, coupon packs or any other SCR reward. Hope this helps and welcome to RA!

I submitted my receipts from last Sunday's shopping and as soon as they credited my SCRs....I requested my check since I wasn't planning any further shopping that week and it was the last week of the SCR month. GOS check got "auto-requested" as soon as I hit the top amount (and came super-fast).

Sorry if this is a duplicate question, but since there are 11 pages of this thread I figured I better just ask it.

All my receipts are in my rebate status except the lastest one (10/22). It was in a waiting area for approval. Today I got an email that my rebate status has been updated. I looked and the receipt with just EOS lip balm is not there at all. It doesn't have it in waiting, disqualified or anything. Should I give it more time or call them?
