We love Bath and Body works products, but their prices? Not so much! In addition to only shopping their sales, we’ve got some great tips to help you save even more! You may have heard of a few of these, but I think that some of these tips may shock you!
Exchanges
Some things just smell better on the tester card than on your body. If you’ve purchased (or been gifted) a scent you don’t quite care for, Bath and Body Works will exchange it for you! Simply take in your new or used products and trade them straight across. Learn more about their 100% guarantee here.
Price Adjustments
Buy something, only to have it go on sale soon after? Or tired of dashing out to the candle sale to find only blueberry is left? Shop early! If the price drops within 14 days, take your receipt in for a price adjustment. This is a great way to get the scents you really want without fighting the crowds.
Coupons Have a 3-Day Grace Period
It’s so frustrating to get a Bath and Body Works coupon in the mail during a big sale and having to wait a few days to use it, or even worse- getting to the counter and realizing that your coupon has expired. Stop doing the full price walk of shame! Bath and Body Works stores will accept coupons 3 days BEFORE they start and 3 days after they expire. This will let you overlap the coupons with sales that normally wouldn’t stack!

Shop More, Save More!
In most cases, the more you shop, the more (and higher value) coupons you’ll receive. However, if you happen to skip a few months, you may receive a high value welcome back coupon in the mail! Last fall I got a free 3-wick candle one!
Shop the Semi-Annual Sales for the Best Deals
Instead of a typical clearance section, Bath and Body works clearances out seasonal items twice a year in the semi-annual sale. This sale usually starts a day or two after Christmas and runs through January, and it happens again in June. In addition to seasonal scents, the semi-annual sales often have discontinued scents that you can only get 1-2 times per year! HURRAY FOR PEARBERRY!!!
Online Shopping
Bath and Body works is lacking a little in the online shopping department. Most of the online sales are only discounted with a coupon code and Bath and Body Works doesn’t allow coupon stacking online, so you won’t be able to pair a sale with a coupon. Shipping is $5.99 per order, but occasionally (rarely), you’ll find a coupon code for $1 shipping with a minimum purchase.
Black Friday
Black Friday, oh, glorious Black Friday. When you think of Black Friday at Bath and Body Works, the image of a VIP Tote probably comes to mind. Big deal, huh? Well, chances are that you’re missing some CRAZY deals! Did you know that on Black Friday ONLY, you can stack coupons at Bath and Body Works? You’ll be able to stack % off coupons, $ off coupons, AND free product coupons!
Let’s make this even better- you can use MULTIPLE coupons per transaction! If you have (3) $10/$30 coupons, you’ll be able to use them all on the same transaction, as long as you spend $90.
VIP Totes
We hit on those above, but the VIP totes deserve their own section! Only available on a few selected holidays each year, such as Black Friday, these bags are a STEAL! They are normally $20-$30 for a $100+ value of products! A minimum purchase is required (usually $40) to purchase one, but don’t worry, you can use coupons on this, too! You’ll also be able to purchase multiples if you meet the minim spending for each- and the value of the bag counts towards it! For example, if the bag is $20 with a $40 minimum purchase, you will be able to get two bags and $40 worth of merchandise for $80 before coupons!
