QUESTION: Why Do I Need So Much Toothpaste?

As many of you well know, I have a ton of toothpaste, all of which I got for FREE.  Completely, totally, 100% Free.  They were all 2.99, Get $2 UP, Use $1 Coupon., Use $2 UP... and get $2 UP back on your receipt.  F R E E  FREE.  So even if it does expire, it was still FREE!
I know I do not need all this toothpaste, but I've already given about 30% of my stock away.  I do not buy it just to give it away, but I do it to .... "ROLL MY UPs REWARDS"

UP Rewards expire approximately two weeks after you earn them.  If there are no good deals the next week, then you don't spend your UPs and you wait.   If your UP rewards expire, then your stuck when you could have gotten however much off the week before.  However, I like to keep as many  UPs as I can.  SO I Roll them.  This is where you buy things that are either FREE after UPs that will give you MORE UPs, or stuff that is super cheap that will produce more UP rewards.   So I had about $12 dollars worth of UP rewards that were due to expire on the 13th, but nothing good that I needed before then... so in order to keep my UPs, I had to buy more FREE toothpaste that would give back more UP rewards so I'd have longer to use them.

In the end, it doesn't freaking matter to you why I have 22 bottles of toothpaste, just know that they were all FREE and if I do have them until the end of their shelf life, that it didn't cost me anything, not even gas, because toothpaste is never the only thing that I buy when I go to rite aid.
