You do the math

Look closely at the picture below of various Bath & Body Works items. Estimate how much you think the average person would have spent if they paid full retail price for each item. The total would look a little something like this:


Each tube of lotion @ $10.50 each (x3) = $31.50
Men's body wash = $10.50
Wallflowers room plug @ $12.50 each (x5) = $62.50
Emory boards @ $1.50 each (x9) = $13.50
TOTAL = $118.00

How much did I pay?

ONLY $14.49!!!!!!! ($1.61 x 9 transactions)

Holla' if you hear me....come on now! Oh yeah, are you with me?! I feel good! No, great! I LOVE a bargain! The only thing I hated about this bargain was that I felt like I was cheating the company - BUT the associates at the store kept telling me to come back tomorrow with more. They said they'd do the same if they were allowed! I love good customer service. I'm going back tomorrow with more coupons to load up on more lotion, sprays, etc. The Wallflowers are currently on sale (until tomorow) for only $6.00, as well as the 2-pack of refills! Go get you some! I mean, don't we all see "Teacher Appreciation Week" on the horizon? What about end of the school year teacher gifts? What about that sweet friend who's having a bridal shower, baby shower - pamper her! Got a housewarming party to attend? Give them a Wallflower!

Can you believe this coupon doesn't expire until Saturday, April 12? Oh goodness! I'm going back and forth between the two stores here in town just so I don't appear too "cheap" to the employees. I mean, I've got enough lotion to get me well into 2010! Who knows, I might even be able to hand a few nurses some of this free stuff when I'm laying in the bed giving birth in a few years. Tee hee....

So, wanna know how you can get this AMAZING deal? Click Here to print the coupon for yourself. Scroll down through the coupon post and click on the link provided to print it out. I wanted to save paper so I copied and pasted the coupon into a Word document and placed four coupons on a page (they are 1/4 of a page size coupons).

Let me just make sure this is clear because it really does sound too good to be true. The coupon states that you only have to make one purchase of ANY item in the store and will then get a free item up to an $11 value. You see now why I have so many emory boards? Those were my initial purchase since they were the cheapest thing I could find in the store. Remember, one coupon required per transaction....so, if you want to get four tubes of lotion, you better walk in with four coupons. Hope that makes sense. Leave a comment or email me if you have a question.

Yes, it's true, my friends. You can really walk out with hundreds of dollars worth of product and only have shelled out pennies. I've got the receipts to prove it. Happy shopping!
