How to use +UP Rewards to lower your Out of Pocket expenses

Okay one GREAT thing about the +UP rewards is that you can use the +UP Reward to lower the amount of money you spend out of pocket.

For Example, at the beginning of July there was a $10 +UP Reward when you bought 4 of the John Freida Products.

So for the first transaction it was like this
4 X John Freida Products (2 of the Frizzease and 2 of the Root Awakening Products)

I used the following coupons AND My Wellness Plus card to spend less money Out of pocket to begin with.

2 X $3/1 off of John Frieda Root Awakening product
2 X $2/1 off of John Frieda Products Excluding Root Awakening
$5/$20 purchase Video Value coupon

So My OOP Was about $10 + Tax BUT I earned a $10 +UP Reward So really I only bought the John Frieda for the amount of the tax.

On the next transaction, I used the $10 +UP reward to only spend $4.11 OOP instead of the $14.11 it would have been if I hadn't had the +UP Reward.

4 X John Freida Products (2 of the Frizzease and 2 of the Root Awakening Products)
2 X Stayfree 24 count with Bonus 8 pads (BOGO Free Sale)
2 X Lay's Chips (BOGO FREE Sale)
1 X Marlboro Special Blend Cigarettes

I used the following coupons
2 X $3/1 off of John Frieda Root Awakening product
2 X $2/1 off of John Frieda Products Excluding Root Awakening
1 X Stayfree BOGO FREE Coupon (makes BOTH of the Stayfree pads FREE)
Wellness Plus $10 +UP Reward
50 cents off of $5 Snack Wellness coupon
$5/$25 purchase Video Value coupon

Total OOP Was Only $14.11 for BOTH Transactions and earned me ANOTHER $10 +UP Reward
for a future purchase.
