missyjane Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) Ok I was perusing the Bath and Body website but I'm waiting until Black Friday to pull the trigger because what I need to for my daughter isn't on sale yet so then I figured out a way to take advantage of the spend $30 today get $10 later plus get a deal on a mani pedi set. I searched for gift cards, http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=2077137&sr=1&origkw=gift%20card click on the link to the gift cards, choose one you like, pick qty 1, click continue, select the value of $25, then click on select at the right side and choose a color (black, cream, red or pink), I chose pink: http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c194/missyjane_30/pink.jpg Then click add to bag, then click checkout, proceed, enter your payment and shipping info (BE SURE TO PICK FREE SHIPPING as an option in the drop down box!) and you got a $25 gift certificate, a $6 mani/pedi set (retail value $18) plus a $10 promo code to follow within 12 days all for $31 shipped. (No tax, no shipping) (Total retail value of all: $53 for $31) PS: The $10 promo code to come will be good on black friday, but it has to be used online! For clarification: Gift certificates ship free, you must spend $30 online today to receive the $10 promo code within 12 days to be used online only. Edited November 12, 2008 by missyjane hopefully added some clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiesmommy01 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 so let me get this straight...you get a 25$ giftcard, a mani/pedi set, and a $10 promo code...and they actually pay YOU to do this? what am i missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ths41017 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Do you have to do the $25 GC for the 10$ promo? Or can you do a $20 GC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erose630 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 You gotta do $25 to get your total to $30..I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missyjane Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 You have to spend $30 to get the promo. There is free shipping on gift certificates and no tax, they bundle the gift certificate and the mani/pedi set into one item so you don't pay shipping or tax on the mani/ped set.

No, they don't pay you. You have to spend $30 to get the $10 promo code. So in my scenario I spent $31 and got a $25 gc, a $10 promo code and a mani/pedi set.

missyjane Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 Do you have to do the $25 GC for the 10$ promo? Or can you do a $20 GC?You have to spend $30 to get the promo, so the $20 gc only works if you spend another $4 plus the $6 mani pedi set, but then it's not a hot deal because you pay shipping on the $4 item and tax on it.

MeliesMom Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/pop3/index.jsp You might wanna be sure you get the $10 code. Because per the rules the offer is valid Nov 3rd- Nov 11th. And the code is good for purchases from Nov 12th to Dec 24th. So you might not get a code since it's past the 11th.

MeliesMom Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I was thinking today was the 12th for some reason. I was so gonna jump on this deal then I read the rules and my brain said it's the 12th you might not get a code so I decided not to order it! I will have to order it now!

Stowasser Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) How did you get free shipping, I am getting $36.95 because its adding shipping Ok, thank you for advice, I went back and looked at which method and it said post office so I changed it to my street address and it was free. Which is funny, sending this through the mail in an envelope has got to be cheaper than UPS or FedEx but whichever gets me free shipping is what i am going to choose Edited November 11, 2008 by Stowasser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeliesMom Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Make sure you click economy ground or regular ground shipping. Shipping is free with any gc purchase. ETA:did you click on the link in the original post? It takes you straight to the gc's then add the mani/pedi set and it should already have free shipping selected.

katiesmommy01 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 my order confirmation came like this : Item: Description: Bath & Body Works Red Gift Card Quantity: 1 @ $31.00 Shipping Method: Ground, (3-5 business days) I don't understand...first of all i picked the pink gc, and the pink mani/pedi set...came to $31 w/no tax or shipping...so why isn't my confirmation like everyone elses?

MeliesMom Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I was thinking the same thing. You have to go to order status and it will show it like ours. Also, I got the pink card too but it says red is the color. Maybe to them it's red but it looks pink to me. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tavera Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 how/when do you get the $10 off code? did they send it to you right away? it doesn't say anything about the code on my order - how do i know if i'm getting it or not?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeliesMom Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 The code will be delivered via email within 12 days depending on date of qualified order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tavera Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 i saw that, but it also said that it was not valid on purchases of gift cards or e-gift cards - does that mean we can't use the $10 code to buy a gift card?? or that purchasing a gift card does not qualify us to get the $10 code? How can we know if our order qualifies is basically what i'm trying to find out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can we know if our order qualifies is basically what i'm trying to find out :)There is no way to know for sure. But It says offer not redeemable for cash, gc's etc. We spent $30 so should get the code. Usually they say that the code cannot be used to purchase gc's and that might be what you are talking about, but I didn't see where it says not valid on purchases of gc's. Either way we still got a cute mani/pedi set and a $25 gc to spend, so if it doesn't come it's not a big loss cause I will still use the gc on BF and I needed a mani/pedi set.

MommyHolman Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I took a look at the printable $10 off $30 coupon, and it says that "gift cards are not applicable to the minimum purchase requirement." I'm guessing that also applies to this deal...so for those of us who are temped to do this deal just based on the idea of getting $10 free (myself included ), may want to reconsider. But...I can always use a $25 BBW gift card...Based on other's experiences, how strickly is this enforeced with online orders??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racerfan Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Do you have to put in a code to get the $10 off promo code from this purchase or is it automatic for spending $30??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
