Rite Aid

Rite Aid began their Wellness + program last year.  By purchasing $1,000+ in merchandise (very little out of pocket) I earned the Wellness+ discount of 20% off anything at Rite Aid.  If the 20% discount is better then the sale price, then I get 20% off. 

I'm currently trying to do this again this year so I can have the 20% discount next year.  It's a little tougher this year because their registers are not tracking the purchases very well this time.
