Bath & Body Works

Oh great, another place with a luring scent which makes me go inside and buy things I don’t need.
I have a zillion different bottles of lotion and frankly it pisses my husband off that most of them are half full haha. I end up buying the body sprays too and never use them because I always reach for my high end perfumes instead and end up giving those away. The scent of the body sprays don’t last long and you end up having to bring them with you and re-​apply all day so they get used pretty quickly.
I wish it didn’t smell so damn good as I was walking by. That might make me strong enough to avoid coming into the store. The one thing I do purchase and use here on the regular is their plug in air freshners. They smell great and they come in the same scents are their other products. They last a long time too but the only downside is there is no option of scent strenght control. It’s pretty much plugged in or not, no way to turn it up or down.
The pre-​created baskets are overpriced. If you calculate the prices of the items inside you end up paying more. You could easily get some cellophane, a ribbon, and a basket at a dollar store and put your own together with extra products of your choosing. When they are buy one get one half off it’s worth it to save time.
Instead of coming to the store most times I just wait for their bogo sales online and stock up on a bunch, then use a coupon code on top of it because I am on their mailing list, and then buy enough to get the free shipping too. It works out much cheaper and I dont have to be in the store tempted to buy more items. In addition when there’s a sale they don’t limit the amount you can buy so if you purchase more than the required 3 or 4 items the sale price also applies to each additional like item afterwards without additional minumums after the initial purchases.
When I do come into the store they almost always give you some type of coupon or promotional offer to return. The cashiers also encourage you to buy more and save when they have a special and kind of look at you like you are crazy if you turn it down. «Oh really, you don’t want 5 of these for the price or 4? Are you sure? hmmm okay». Aside from that they are super friendly.

What can one say about Bath & Body Works? The lotions are packaged in an aesthetically appealing way & there is always some type of «deal» going on-​buy 3 get 2 free etc. However, I find the lotions to not be that great… just perfumy, if you will. I do love the hand soaps & hand sanitizers & go a few times a year & stock up. At the bottom of the receipt there is usually a survey & I took it yesterday & it only took 2 minutes & I will now get $ 10 off a purchase of $ 30 next time. I can dig it!

Bath products.
I’ve been to this place countless times, mostly around the holidays when I need some small gifts for the females in my life.
The place sells a variety of bath products: bubble baths, body sprays moisturizers etc but to me it seems that they have tons of the same thing over and over.
I think that the place would be better off if it was organized better. As I was in there, the girl working there asked if I needed help — but she was clueless as to what and where everything was. I’ll chalk it up to temporary holiday help, but the place was not too user friendly either.
I think for the costliness of the place, they could offer something a bit more in the way of help.
