And so I love Bath & Body Works.
I do NOT love their obscene prices.
However, twice a year, in January and in June, they have amazing sales with up to 75% off. Did you know that every other receipt prints out a survey that gets you $10 off a $30 purchase? Want to know the best part? IT. DOESN'T. EXPIRE. You can hang on to your receipt for a year and they will still honor the coupon (in store only).
So twice a year I head on over to Bath & Body and fill up my bag with exactly enough sale items to equal around $30 before tax. I use these items for myself, gifts, shower game prizes, or as fun stuff to send to my sisters while they work at Hume Lake for the summer.
This time around I got 14 items for a grand total of $22.07. Do I care if my bubble bath or soap is from the Christmas line? Nope. I only care that it cost me about a dollar or two. The most expensive items were the body wash for $2.15. The cheapest were the hand soaps at .94. I am sort of in love with the Christmas tea light holders ($1.63) and may have to go back for more to pack away for next year :)
Now I'll just tuck away my reciept until June.

If you are going back this month...take me!
I did the same thing! I loaded up for a shower I'm throwing ... so awesome :)
Melissa - Okay let's go this week!!
Julie - I was so happy when I saw those "Charmed Life" lotions and sprays. They have little wedding rings on them! So cute for my sister's bridal shower :)
Jamie!!! Thanks for this!!! I actually meandered in there the other day because I saw the big 75% off signs... but still couldn't justify buying anything, haha! But I DIDN'T know that about the receipts! Excuse me while I go scrounge the house to see if I might possibly by some small miracle have one.... or maybe I'm too late and the sale is over?
No you're right on time! I think it's still going on for another week or two :) Good luck finding that receipt!
wow! thanks for the heads-up!
