    Charlene,
    The $1.50 off coupon for the Ricola is only for 45 ct. or larger. The ones on sale at Walgreen’s are the 19 ct. bag. This coupon cannot be used… πŸ™
    You’d still get 2 for free using the B1G1 free coupon, though.

    Hi, Charlene. MFA is a fabulous website. I am saving hundreds of dollars using your website. Thank you so much for giving us this very
    important information. I went to the web-site for the ‘free kitchen item’
    and where you can get a $15.00 credit when you sign up.–It’s either
    dated 1/25/11 or 10/26/11. It’s …something “King’. Anyway, it has an
    e-mail address on the bottom that I could not delete. I did not
    fill comfortable having that address connected to my personal name and e-mail address. Can you please let me know what is that e-mail address at the bottom of the sign-up box, and how do I delete it?
    Thanks. πŸ™‚ – A Happy MFA user/subscriber

    Use $0.75/1 Ricola Cough & Throat Drops from SS 8/14 (expires 10/31).. then it will be a moneymaker

    Ok Ricola is corrected.

    Claudette do you mean One King’s Lane? Sorry I have no clue at all what the email is you are referring to πŸ™

    If I read the Rite Aid Single Check Rebate list correctly, there will be two one-week-only SCRs next week (10/30-11/5): One for up to $6.00 back on Bufferin 130-count and one for up to $6.00 back on Legatrin PM 60-count. Maybe someone will spot a deal or save six bucks on something they needed anyway?

    Claudette, Yes the $15 credit is to One Kings Lane. The reason that email address is down there that you can’t delete is that is a referral link you clicked on. So whoever’s email that is gets a referral credit once you purchase something. Likewise if you refer someone. So since you got it of MFA website, its more than likely her email address and she would get the referral credit. I have done this myself, so I know from experience. I have already gotten my One Kings Lane stuff and love it! They even threw in a candle in one of my packages… was a nice surprise!
