Thrifty Thursday: Making your prescriptions "work" for you!

November 6, 2008 by

You may have seen those coupons in the paper advertising a free gift card for new and/or transferred prescriptions, but weren’t really sure how it “worked” or maybe it seemed to good to be true. It does work, and it’s very simple. I posted here about how I was able to use my gift card from transferring a prescription to buy groceries for almost nothing out of pocket.

Here’s what I do:

*Every time I see one of those coupons, regardless of the store, I clip it and hang on to it. Most stores (in my area at least) will accept competitor’s pharmacy coupons. This includes CVS, Walgreens, and all of the major grocery stores. Target (in my area at least) does not accept competitor coupons and I’m not sure about Walmart. If you’re a Walmart shopper, it’s worth calling and asking.

*If you’d like to transfer a prescription, all you have to do is call the pharmacy and give them the information off of your prescription (usually your prescription number, the old pharmacy name and number, and the name of the prescription). If you are planning on using a competitor coupon, you may also want to check and see if they honor competitor coupons when you call.

*Pick up your prescription, give them the coupon and you’ve got money to spend! Most stores will only allow you to do this once per prescription.

You probably want to weigh out the pros and cons of doing this. Many insurance companies offer a discount if you do a 90 day mail order supply of your prescription. My retail co-pay for a 30 day supply is $10. My co-pay for a 90 day supply is $10. Even if I pay $30 out of pocket to fill my prescriptions at the “Retail” rather than mail order rate for 3 months, if I have three $30 gift card coupons, I still come out $60 ahead, so it’s worth it to me.

Be sure to check your prescription benefits before doing this. Some benefits only allow for you to fill a prescription a certain amount of times at the retail rate before raising the rate or requiring you to fill the prescription by mail order. Usually, you have 3-4 times that you can fill it at the retail rate and usually, at this point, I’ve transferred the prescription everywhere I want to so that I can get a gift card anyway, so I just switch to mail order.

Target deals for the week all in one spot

November 5, 2008 by

There are so many Target deals this week, and I have been posted them sporadically as I find them, so I thought it would be nice to post them all in one spot.

Here they are:

Green Giant carrots – FREE!
The Green Giant bagged baby carrots are on sale for $.99 this week. There is a $1/1 printable Target coupon (you can get it through the coupon generator on Afullcup.com or on Hotcouponworld.com – see links at the right)

StarKist tuna pouches – FREE
StarKist tuna pouches are $.99 this week at Target! There were $1/1 coupons in the 10-12-08 RP insert. There are also $1/1 coupons from Vocal Point. So, if you have those coupons, you can get free tuna!

Prego – .80 or .84/jar
Prego is on sale this week for $1.67. There are $1/3 and .75/2 (it depends on your area) manufacturer’s coupons and $1/2 printable coupons on Target.com. If you have the .75/2 manufacturer’s coupon it ends up being .80/jar and if you have the $1/3 it will be .84/jar.

Kellogg’s cereal – get free milk or a $5 gift card (depending on your area)
There is a deal this week where you get either a $5 gift card or a free gallon of milk (check the ad for your area because it varies by market) when you buy 5 boxes of Kellogg’s cereal (the ad says priced at $2.75, but at my store they had several different boxes that were less than $2.75 and still part of the deal).

There is a printable coupon for $1/1 Kellogg’s cereal here: http://bricks.coupons.com/Start.asp?tqnm=rjnefah1098550&bt=wi&o=54148&c=KC&p=uU1wzMHO

You can print it 6 times. There are also various cereal coupons on Kelloggs.com. So, if you use five $1/1 coupons, you either get 5 boxes of cereal and a gallon of milk for about $8 or you get five boxes of cereal and a $5 gift card for about $8 (if you’ve done the candles deal, use your gift card from that, and you only spend $3!)

Glade holiday candles:
Buy four Glade holiday candles in the following scents and get a $5 gift card: Apple Cinnamon, Gingerbread or Glistening Snow scents. The participating items are priced at $2.50/each, and if you scan them, it will say “buy 4, get a $5 gift card” on the scanner. The deal is good through 12/15.

There are BOGO coupons on Glade.com and on Coupons.com (which you can access through the banner on the right). There were also several coupons in Sunday’s paper for Glade items.

***You can only get the gift card once per transaction
