I went to BBW again today. I am so addicted. Walked in there with $100 in GC's.

Transaction 1:

1 $50 GC
got a free $15 GC
=paid $5 cash, and 45 on previous GC

Transaction 2:

1 $50 GC
got a free $15 GC
=paid with a $5 gc and a $45 GC

Transaction 3:

1 lambie blanket $17.50
1 sleep lotion $13.00
used free item coupon, (when spending $10)
paid with $15 promo GC
OOP= $2.70 paid with my GC (from last transaction, it still had $5 on it)

Transaction 4:

1 lambie blanket $17.50
1 hand dry hand treatment $13.00
used free item coupon
paid= with $15 promo coupon
OOP= $2.70, paid $2.30 on GC, and $0.40 cents cash

Walked out with:
2 lambie blankets
1 sleep lotion
1 hand treatment
and still $100 in GC's
all for $5.40 cash

Put my stuff in the car, and went back with 4 of the free trial lotion coupons with any purchase, got 4 lotions @3.50 each, 3 nail files @ 0.37, and 1 small gift bag @ 0.50 cents
OOP: $1.47

So now I still have 2 $50 GC's, and 1 promo $15 GC (from yesterday)

I love BBW almost as much as Target!

Funny you mention JCP, I had my coupons ready but it's on the other side of the mall and my hands were full. Those darn Lambie blankets come in a huge box.

I also took too long at my daughter's pre-school, I went to drop off presents for the kids in her class. The girls got a yup you guessed it a 6' Lambie from BBW, in a really pretty gift bag from BBW (not that a 4 year old cares about what the bag looks like). And the Boys got................................Hotwheels!!!!!!

But I am planning on going to JCP one more time Thursday!woot Then no more shopping for me. I will be going to Iowa for 2 weeksFrown .
Don't know how I will survive.

I sell Cookie Lee jewelry and last night I had a mystery hostess party at my apartment. Set up a nice gla day display to try and get rid of some. DD was there. She has a little shopping cart and was filling it with glade!! It was so funny! I can only imagine what she was thinking. Then when she couldn't reach anymore she was stepping on the wisps as steps! so funny!!

I think we are justCrazy . I will be in West Burlington, Iowa. You know I've never been in the snow before, at least not for more than a couple hours, and I think it would be too cold, to drag my kids out. Maybe i can beg my sister to babysit.

On the bright side, I just found out she lives about 5 minutes away from Target and JCPenney's!!!!bounce So I am a bit excited now.

What part of Nebraska are you going to, and for how long. I've never been away for more than 5 days, so it'll be pretty different for me.

Did you ever use the JCP coupon? It expires on the 24th, so you do have some time.wave

Me either - then they tell you it wasn't that great of a deal (because they didn't understand how to slick deal it) - so it's my fault I didn't lay it out better. Mad

Quote from navywife :
Oops! Guess I accidently quoted the wrong post - this is in reference to the amazon price match question.

I would still give it a try. I've heard that if it is more then $20 they will still adjust. I called trying to get an adjust for $6 and it was a no go, then something else dropped exactly $20 so I called back and they adjusted it. I've also heard that if you get the call center in India then just hang up and try again until you get one that you can tell is in the US. Lastly, I know that lots of people who have been told no by the first person that they talk to have gotten a different answer after being transfered to a supervisor. HTH! Good luck!
I totally agree - It sounds like the key is to 1) get someone who speaks English 2) 7 days might be the window that they will adjust in 3) She mentioned something about it having to be at least $20, then said it had to be a "substantial" price decrease. I called when something went down $20 and the guy (India call center) said no way. I called back later and got someone from the US and she took care of it and I got my $20 credit immediately.

How cute!

I remember back in the pantene days, my 4 year-old used to seperate them for me by color, and shape of the bottle. She loves to help me arrange my stockpiles!

Omaha area. You are on the other side of Iowa.

I grew up there so I know how bitterly cold it can get. I believe when we moved here we left all our heavy winter coats at my mom's. Don't need more than a light jacket in SoCal.

We are going home for 10 days and I am excited!

I think someone used it and got the "not valid" message but it sounds like it might just be the message that pops up when they scan the wrong barcode.

Did you look on the jj products in the baby area? I saw some that had a $1 off peelie for any Johnson's product. I know it's not much, but it could help.
