Bed Bath & Beyond is a tempting paradise for the home wares shopper looking for great deals. They offer a plethora of items for rooms like the bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom and they always have some form of sale or offer running.  To ensure you always get the best deal we’ve hunted down all the insider information and come up with several tips for shopping at Bed Bath & Beyond

Don’t Throw Out Expired Coupons

Although Bed Bath and Beyond’s policy is to ask customers to only use coupons during the period specified you will often find that a cashier will put expired coupons through anyway. They appear to have an old computer system that will accept whatever the cashier decides to put through. Most stores want your business, or the cashier simply doesn’t have the time to read the fine print. 

Start A Gift Registry Even If You Aren’t Getting Married

Register your gift registry at Bed Bath & Beyond and include your email and you will qualify for a completion coupon and sometimes even a free gift card, or other incentive. Look out for gift cards, or incentives before the peak wedding season in spring. The 10% off completion coupon is emailed to you after your event date and can be used on items that are on your registry list for up to 90 days after your event.

Nothing says you actually have to be getting married to register. If you are having a house warming, want to direct people on what to buy you for Christmas, or even have a lot you want to buy yourself you could benefit.

Try Stacking Coupons And Offers

Bed Bath & Beyond accepts manufacturer’s coupons and although the fine print says you can’t use them in conjunction with other coupons, many times you will find that you can.

Most coupons state that clearance or sale stock is excluded from further discounts, but once again you will find that you may be able to use their 20% off, or $5 off coupons on these items to get a further discount.

Occasionally some stores will even allow you to use more than one $5 off or 20% off coupon for the one purchase. In a nutshell always try your luck at Bed Bath & Beyond when it comes to using coupons and combining offers.

Look Out For Rebates

Vendors sometimes offer rebates through Bed Bath & Beyond. These provide you with money back after your purchase. As these offers are provided by the vendor, you should be able to use a coupon when you first buy the item. In the long run this works out to a double discount. 

When And Where To Find The Best Clearance Stock

Online it’s quick and easy to find clearance stock by heading to the clearance section and picking the category you desire. Many stores feature their clearance bins in the middle of the store. You may have to rummage through these to find something you like, but they often feature the greatest discounts. Other places to look are the front or back of aisles, or the bottom shelves where less expensive items are stocked. Clearance items are typically marked with yellow stickers.

January is a good time to find a good variety of clearance stock as they are often making room for the latest products manufacturers are releasing for the year ahead. Remember always try any coupons you have on clearance items even if the coupon states otherwise as you may get lucky and qualify for a further discount. 

If You Intend On Spending Big Bucks Enquire About Discounted Gift Cards

Bed Bath & Beyond offers discounts on bulk gift card orders. As gift cards have no expiry date and can be used in conjunction with coupons, or on discounted stock, it may be worth investing in these for use on future purchases. If you end up getting away with using coupons on clearance stock this equals a triple discount. 

Don’t Have A Bed Bath & Beyond Coupon? You Still Don’t Have To Settle On Paying Full price

Bed Bath & Beyond also accepts competitor’s coupons, or will price match on advertised prices from another store. Or if you forget to bring in your coupon, or find one after your purchase you can head back to store for a price adjustment refund. Cashiers have been known to process these price adjustments well after the purchase date. 

Want Something Online, But Only Have An In Store Coupon?

Bed Bath & Beyond staff are encouraged to help customers having difficulty placing an online order. You can ask for help placing your order in store. If you ask the staff member nicely to apply you’re your coupon, you are likely to find they will. Thousands of items on their site qualify for free shipping, so you can end up an all-round winner. 

Make Use Of The Friendly Returns Policy

If you order something online and don’t like it you can return the item to a store and avoid paying return shipping. If you lose your receipt, or have received an unwanted gift from Bed Bath & Beyond they offer merchandise credits that can be use in their stores nationwide.
