Bed Bath & Beyond Can be Fun
For a guy, Bed Bath & Beyond is roughly equal to pure torture. But there are ways of making the trip tolerable. Namely, collecting the BBB coupons from the house and using them, en masse, at BBB. For the uninitiated, BBB sends out two types of coupons to their mailing list:
-$5 off $15 purchase
-20% off a single item
Though expiration dates are printed on the coupons, they are unenforced, and the coupons are stackable, to a limit. Obviously the 20% off coupons only pay when buying items that cost more that $25.
So today, when we had a $75.88 purchase at BBB (pre-tax), I handed five $5 coupons to the cashier, which brought our purchase down by $27.16 (including tax), for a net savings of 32.9%! For those wondering, it was just chance that I came so close to the minimum dollar amount to use five coupons (5 * $15 = $75).
