Bye Bye Money...

DH and I are heading up to Bed, Bath & Beyond in about an hour for one of their Registry Wrap Up Parties.  We're getting 20% off items left on our registry.  And heaven knows there's a lot to choose from because we received very little from ANY of our registries.  The gift cards we got weren't even to stores at which we were registered! 

 Anywho!  New Sheets and squishy gel kitchen mats, here I come!

Re: Bye Bye Money...

  • DH and I went to one yesterday morning; luckily we had gotten a good amount in BBB gift cards. However, we did spend twice as much as the amount we had in gift cards! lol

    Hope you get all the stuff you want!

  • I just got back from one of those! We bought $600 dollars worth of stuff, but had $200 in store credit from returns + $200 worth of gift cards + 20% off of everything = us paying $50!

     

    It was actually quite fun!

  • We brought a ton of the coupons with us that HH's coworkers gave him.  I thought we'd never use all of them, but we used all but 3!!  We got a ton of stuff for not a ton of money!!

  • We just got back from ours! Well, I did anyway, went with my mom because DH couldn't go. I didn't spend a whole lot and got a few key items. It was fun!

  • We still need to do this.  And I can't wait!!

    Danielle - where did they get all those coupons? 

  • We didn't get to do this, we didn't register for much so by the time the wedding had come around there was nothing but the honeymoon registry left, we ended up with 3,500 Euro on that one :)

  • I am so there with you, only for us it's the honeymoon and putting storm shutters on the house (hopefully), taking HH *back* to the doctor (he's still coughing up a storm and it's making him throw up due to the violence (sorry for the TMI)), and advertising for the wedding planning business.... It's a slight nightmare.
  • We went to a BBB completion event last night too! It was really great, we got our 13 piece cookware set and lots of towels and odds and ends from our registry. Lol, we ended up spending way more than we had planned, but we saved a lot of money! 
  • Hope you find all you need and get a great deal!

  • We went to one too last night!!! Sooo much fun :) I felt like I was on a shopping spree and then I remembered that we actually had to pay for it...yikes! Fun Times :)
  • We did the same but at Target. We spent $350 but saved $250 with GC, the completion discount and my team member discount. Then a few days later we went back and spent $800 on a dyson and our cookware but saved $250 with a couple coupons, a check card reward card and my team member discount. Now I want to spend money at BB&B, but I know I shouldn't!
