I’m not sure which part I love the most: the bed, the bath, or the beyond. Probably the beyond. If you have never ventured into a Bed Bath and Beyond store, you are truly missing out. It’s a fun store with tons to look at. Long before I was a 5-Sunday-paper-buying-couponer, I was an avid BBB coupon user.
Bed Bath and Beyond is notorious for sending out these pretty blue coupons. The most common value is 20% off one item, but sometimes you’ll be lucky enough to come across a $10 off of $30 or $5 off of $15 coupon.
Some people do not realize- you can use ONE coupon for every single item that you purchase AND you can use these coupons even if they have expired. It’s true!
Bed Bath and Beyond was one of our stops yesterday. They had almost all of their holiday merchandise reduced to 50% off (including holiday scented Yankee candles- large jars are $12!!)We bought several fun things-even a few Christmas presents for *gasp* next year. I used a 20% off coupon for each and every item. I even grabbed next year’s wrapping paper too- just $.80/roll
Here’s what we picked up:
Original Total: $61
I paid: $20.34
Yesterday the fam piled in the old 4 wheel drive sleigh and shopped some of the great holiday clearance sales. We visited several different stores, including 2 different Targets. Target currently has holiday merchandise at 75% off. I was really hoping to find some of the elusive holiday Tag/Tag Jr. books that are rumored to be out there, but as usually happens with me and Target, there were none to be found. We did pick up a couple of goodies though…
At Target store #1:
How cute! These will come in handy next year. I am going to start watching my niece one day a week starting this week- I see a lot of Lily and Ava craft time as they get a little older. I thought these trays would be cute to hold different craft pieces/accessories.
Stocking Craft Kits- were $4.99, marked down to $1.25/each
Holiday trays- were $2.99, marked down to $.74/each
Total: $3.98
At Target store #2:
Okay- I found ONE clearanced Tag book. LOL I was so happy to find one, yet sad that there weren’t any others. Then I found these ridiculously cute socks/stockings for Lily Bean! They probably won’t fit her for a year or two, but I have a feeling that she’ll love them.
Holiday stockings- were $4.99, marked down to $1.25
Cat in the Hat Tag book- was $13.99, marked down to $6.98…used this $4/1 coupon…paid $2.98
Total: $3.73
