OK I already broke my vow to not buy anything til the end of April :( But it was such a good deal that I must now enable all of you muahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

I went to bathandbodyworks.com and added one bottle of Banana Smoothie body lotion to my cart as well as a temptations body wash. Checked out and entered free4u in the promotion box and got the body wash for free as well as the $25 madras tote bag. All that for $15 and that included shipping!

Oh what a super deal! If I wasn't in the middle of moving, I'd be all over it.... On the other hand, I deserve something just for me! That really is an awesome deal :)

what is this frosting forever one? what's the scent?

I want to go during my vacation and sniff all the new ones :) I love 3 in 1's :) Kimm

Yesterday after work, I went to Bath & Body Works and got a bunch of Temptations stuff:

Forever Frosting 3-in-1
Cinnamon Buns 3-in-1 (it's different and better than last fall's version!)
Melon Cooler 3-in-1
Forever Frosting Lotion
Frozen Daiquiri Lotion
Banana Smoothie Lotion
Forever Frosting Home Fragrance Oil
Frozen Daiquiri Home Fragrance Oil
Banana Smoothie Home Fragrance Oil

They have a new scent coming out (not in the Temptations line) called Sparkling Peach - it's a pretty nice peach scent! I thought of Chelledun (Michelle) because I know she likes peach. I got a 2 oz. mini lotion for $1.

So, I just happened on this post and went and bought stuff from BBW. But I did get a bunch of free things. Thanks for the code :)

Paula ~ I'm so disappointed in the Frosting Forever 3-in-1. It has this plastic/Play-Doh scent oddness mixed in with the frosting scent. I thought it might just be my particular 3-in-1 but I went back to B&BW today to check out others, and sure enough, they all smell this way. I think I'm spoiled by Philosophy's Buttercream Frosting, which has NO plastic/Play-Doh scent oddness to it. Ugh. I'll probably end up exchanging it for another Cinnamon Bun Heaven 3-in-1, as you can never have enough of that one. I can't wait for you to get your Frosting Forever 3-in-1 - I want to know if yours has it too. Even my Home Fragrance Oil in that scent has the SAME funk. :(

Oh no! That totally bites. Can we take them back to the store to exchange them? I'll let you know when I get mine if it's oogy like yours :(

I'm headed over to the evil mall tomorrow, so I'll be stopping by BBW to spend some birthday dough if I don't find any clothes I like- which will probably happen because they won't have any size 0's anywhere.

so pathetic I am- 5ft tall, and a mere 85 lbs. So hard to find clothes- and I say that for real. Being a mom of 2 and having to shop in the juniors is well, strange- nothing really for the moms in that department- all kind of slanky and skin bearing.

If I had a dollar for everytime someone said I looked 14, I would have millions!

Not only is it hard to find small pants, but a short inseam too- it's a nightmare! I have to hem jeans!

I did happen to find 4 tops today, but no pants- I could not find any jeans in my size that did not have stretch in them- I like just plain denim.

Anyway, I went to BBW and got a nail file (wow, big purchase), and the Temptations Perfect Peach 3 in 1, and some grapefruit Eau de Toilette for $18, that smells like expensive perfume, but it's not. I also got a coupon for buy one signature collection item and get one free on my next purchase.

They also had a deal on buy 2 signature collection items and get one free, but I opted for the tempations line instead.

I got my Bath & Body Works.com order today! I love the cute madras bag - it'll be perfect for summer. Bugg is right - the samples are so-so. But for free, it's better than nothing!

Did you all see that in the catalog they sent, there is a coupon for a free full-size Temptations 3-in-1 with a $15 purchase? This is the same coupon they've been giving out in stores.

I went in BBW the other day and sniffed. OMG that iced tea one is WEIRD! I never expected to smell something like that in a shower gel! I liked the apple one. The melon was okay but I still have no desire for scents like that after the mega cucumber melon craze years ago. I'm over it! The peach didn't really smell to me? (in the bottle). I like peach scents but it just wasn't strong enough or something. The buttercream smelled good but I could already detect the fake plastic smell moonsista pointed out. I had the frozen daiquri last year so I'm over that one too. The rest didn't appeal to me. *sigh* I would've gotten the apple if they had it in the little bottles. I refuse to buy the huge bottles unless it's a scent that I absolutely HAVE to have because I'm madly in love with it. Otherwise I never use it all! I have the mini bottle of the hot chocolate one from Christmas and I still have 1/3 of that left!

I looked at those cute boxed sets like moonsista has also.... one of them has a pineapple and blueberry shower gel in it and I really wanted it but I couldn't pay $20 for a mini shower gel when one is a scent I don't like (raspberry) and another isn't great (the blueberry, as Stacey told me). So $20 for the little pineapple one just wasn't justifyable to me. And I can justify almost anything LOL

I also went to Victoria's Secret as I have a $10 gift card and I didn't get anything there either. I sniffed and sniffed and sniffed... I did like one of the new Beauty Rush shower gels but I don't want all that glitter in a shower gel... no thank you!

Ok yeah, the Iced Tea scent from BBW is exactly like iced tea. But I am trying to think of why I want to smell like iced tea. It's good and all but I dunno...I am not exactly sure what to do with it.

The Apple is fine. Not any better really than Body Shop's apple scents. Not any worse.

QVC had a long Philosophy special on last night and OF COURSE, I ended up with a big skin care package (great deal) and some 3 in 1's. I don't even really like most of them but the new scents just got me. Coconut, another Apple, and Fresh Lemonade along with the matching salt scrubs. Yikes.

I will have to take five showers a day to even make a dent in all this stuff I have.

Patty

I just can't get into bathing in something that smells like tea! LOL

They are having a sale at BBW - $5.00 for all kinds of scents and formulas but the one I am interested in is the Sparkling Peach. The others, I already know about.

Can anyone tell me if the Sparkling Peach is plasticy when in use? I put the shower gel, body cream, body mist, and something else in my cart (and they have $10 off a $30 purchase too, BTW) and then I stopped, remembering people mentioning a plastic, chemical, fake peach scent from BBW.

Is this the one?

I hope it is since I DO NOT need this stuff but love peach scents. Real ones not chemicaly ones.

Anyone try this stuff? I know Stacey mentioned she liked it but I wasn't sure if it was just the sniff test or real use.
