They are selling out fast of everything, even things that you can decorate your home with. I got a few things and a freshner for my car in georgia peach and it is pretty it goes in my vent and I love it and I got for $3.25 I think their fragrance spray OOO la la and I love it............it smells so good.............it was half off last week and when I went in the other day it was 75% off. I just got one but love it and spray it on each day. It will last a while...............I have a few fragrances and I did buy two candles one Georgia Peach which is great and one that was well I can't remember the name but the top is crystals and pearls and it smells so good and they sold out of that..........so this is a record year sale for them the lady said as they are running out of everything. Did anyone buy from Bath and Body Works sale?

Yes. The only time I buy from BBW is when they're having one of their big sales. Always makes me wonder, if they can sell their lotions and shower gels for $3.00 each two times a year, what a huge profit they make when they sell at the regular price of $13.50 each. And why in the heck would anyone buy during times when products are not on sale?

I stock up and buy enough products for me and my husband to last about 6 months -- until the next time they have a big sale.

I've stocked up on my favorite hand soap, Lovely Lemon Meringue. It smells soooooo good. When I say stocked up, I mean REALLY stocked up.

@gidgetgh I just used up my bottle of that scent! It is good.

I always get the foaming soaps because I really like them. One thing I can say about BBW soaps - the pump works so well that you get every last bit of soap out of the container with no problem! I love that! Not even a drop of waste because their pumps work so well.

@Pearlee- if we lived closer, I'd bring you another one...or 10! I use the foaming also.

@ILoveFragrance That candle is Magic in the Air and it really does smell good. Of course you need to save the lid and use on other BBW three-wicks. That lid is absolutely gorgeous, esp. in the sunlight. I also have the matching antibacterial holder with crystals and pearls.

@gidgetgh Thank you! And then we'd spend the rest of our day going to the several Talbot's stores I love close to for the RH Sale!

I am not a fan of BBW because they constantly discontinue the product you fall in love with. I stopped shopping there.

In the past I bought so much stuff at these sales that went unused. The heat changed the consistency of the body creams so I've tossed a lot.

At one time I loved a few scents that were eventually discontinued. I've found better lines with less artificial smells.

@gidgetgh I did once with another BBW soap what you did with the lemon meringue. I really love their fall scent liquid soaps. One Halloween they had marshmallow foaming hand soap in a black bottle with some kind of Halloween design label. I loved that marshmallow soap so much I bought tons of it. BBW ran out and people were upset and they never even offered it again. I used to joke with the clerks that I'd bought so much of it and the demand was then so high because it didn't come back the next year that I should sell some on Ebay. But I never did. I still have a few of those around too.

I've bought so much of their stuff over the years that I still have a bunch. So I try to avoid going in there.

I have many of their creams, but the scent is so strong that I have to mix them with unscented lotion.

I bought some scentportable refills, wallflowers and wax tarts online, but I'm trying not to buy any of their body products. Eventually I think I may stop buying their stuff altogether.

They have raised the price of their 3-wick candles so high that I made the decision to stop buying those. And many of those candles are so strong that I cannot handle burning them for very long anyway. So I have these wax tarts for now, and I'll probably find another brand of candle that costs less and doesn't give me a headache.

You're right they do last all the way to the bottom. I also fill them up with water when the get half way empty to extend their use- it still produces plenty of foam and scent.

I stocked up on foaming hand soaps and bought body wash for the graduate students I supervise in their clinical practce before they move on to the second year externships.
