The basic rules for using +UP Rewards - Your purchase amount must equal or exceed the value of the +UP Reward (can't use a $5 +UP to pay for a purchase totaling $4.99). They can be used on any item, excluding tobacco, stamps, gift cards, lottery tickets, or alcohol.
With those basics in mind, I set out with a pretty straight forward, two-transaction plan that not even my surly, "I ain't gonna put no coupons in manually," cashier could screw up...though, boy, did she ever try.
Here is what I landed for $1.17 out of pocket (pre-tax), thanks to the saving of a much friendlier, and tech savvy, 18 year old store manager.
