Rite-Aid Video Value Program

Rite-Aid Video Value Program is a program in which you receive Rite-Aid coupons on featured products in exchange for watching videos/commercials of that featured product. For example, if you register or already registered with the Rite-Aid Video Value Program and you watch the Aqua Fresh video clip, you will earn the $1.50 Rite-Aid coupon that I used in the above deal. During the month of January 2011, when you watch all 15 Beauty video clips, you will also earn a coupon to save $4 on a $20 purchase at Rite-Aid, which is how I earned the $4/$20 coupon I used in the above deal. Both these coupons are Rite-Aid coupons and can be used in addition to manufacturer's coupons!
