.12 x 25 = super fabulous

I am a soap snob. I don't have to have the best but I do like having the cutest. When I was newly married I made it a rule that we would always have nice hand soap. By nice soap I mean the stuff Bath & Body Works sells. It smells so yummy.

Last March we started to run really low on BBW soap. But there just wasn't room in the budget for a run to the mall. Sad, isn't it.

For my birthday (back in March) my Aunt Jojo gave me a $25 gift card to BBW. I love Aunt Jojo.

I really wanted to run out and buy five hand soaps right then. But I knew the semi-annual sale happens in the summer. So I was patient. It wasn't easy.

The sale was going on last week. I stopped by the South Towne location. I got a great parking space. Always a good sign the shopping goddesses are favoring you.

I purchased three full size body washes, nine hand soaps, three mini hand sanitizer holders, and ten mini hand sanitizers. Without sale prices it would have been $91.50. Eep.

After the discounts from the sale, my coupon, and gift card I spent ... are you sitting down? ... three dollars. That's including tax. Three dollars exactly. It's about a 97% savings. Eat your heart out, Utah Deal Diva.


Aren't they pretty? Here, enjoy a close up of the hand sanitizers. You're welcome.

I spent an average of twelve cents per item. Rock on.

Jessie ... that is a lot of soap!

Yeah, but it's enough to last us at least till the next big sale. I like it that way.

Now when you come to visit you can use Watermelon Something-or-Other in the guest bathroom. Yes, you mean that much to me.
