Super shopping at Bath & Body Works!


I hit up Bath & Body Works the other day just to see what the Fragrance Event was all about. Last Saturday you would receive a tote bag and free full-sized bottle of Into the Wild body lotion with any purchase. I didn't plan on buying anything, but my mom wanted to, and we had some coupons. So we ended up walking out with the above haul for only $36 or 70% off!

They were having the usual buy-2-get-1-free or buy-3-get-2-free deal. We had two coupons: $10 off $30, and a free signature collection (up to $12) with any $10 purchase. We were told they weren't stackable, so we were only going to use one, but we ended up buying more than we planned, and each of us checked out separately so we could each use a coupon (and each get a tote bag!).

The breakdown:

Bought 3 signature collection items @ $12 each = $36
Used $10 off $30 coupon = $26
Got two free items ($12 each) due to the B3G2 promo
Got free tote bag ($5) and full-sized body lotion ($10.50)

Total value: $75.50
Total spent: $26

2nd transaction:

Two candles @ 2 for $10 (regularly $9.50 each)
Used free signature collection item coupon ($12)
Got free tote bag ($5) and full-sized body lotion ($10.50)

Total value: $46.50
Total spent: $10

So in total, we only spent $36 for $122 worth of stuff - 8 body products, 2 candles, and 2 tote bags!
