(Thanks, SavingAddiction!)
kinda sad. just used mine this weekend when they had the 4 for 15 promotion.shucks,,, I coulda got and extra. oh well. gosh i sound a lot like Eeyore 🙂 lol
Their hand soaps are one of my “splurges”!! But they have so many sales and coupons and freebies frequently – I don’t even feel guilty about that!!! And I honestly think their foaming soaps last significantly longer than the bottles of softsoap anyway…
OR…you could buy 4 soaps (4x$3=$12) and use the free signature product coupon (up to $12.00) with any $10 purchase.
For $12 you’d have…
– 4 soaps
– 1 $12 lotion or shower gel!
YAY!! Just moved and we NEED hand soap!! WOOT WOOT
I’m not sure if it works or not, but i’ve heard that once the foaming hand soaps are empty you can fill them up with 25%regular hand soap and 75% water. A great way to stretch a $2.40 bottle of soap!
thats a great tip.. 🙂
I actually tried this recently and it did work pretty well. Getting the calibration right is tricky–so leave a little room to add more water or soap as needed. And even though you’re tipping it and not shaking it, there are still bubbles, so I’d leave some room for those too!
Just asking…. not doubting…. but if you are diluted down to 25% soap – do you have to use a lot to get dirty little hands clean? What do you think about the anti-bacterial benefits? Or do you only use this particular method when dealing with lesser dirt/bacteria?
I did ask my doctor about this and actually most of us use more soap than necessary. The length of time you spend lathering (even with a tiny bit of soap) does more good than the amt. So have the child sing Happy Birthday before rinsing and they will be pretty clean. My doc recommended NOT using antibac soap on a reg basis because of making your body not keep good bacteria
Antibacterial soap is really not beneficial. the benefit in soap and water comes from rubbing your hands together and the action of the soap to attach to dirt.
I do this all the time and works great! The bath and body pump eventually wear out, but I wait for a sale like this to re-stock on those, I buy however many foaming soaps that I need and the rest are the regular soaps for more refills. Be careful to not add too much water…if it touches the pump it gets clogged and won’t work right.
yes to the length of time washing…as well as the constant use of anti-bacterial products. But what about in the kitchen after handling raw poultry, meat, etc. – I think I would want to use a full strength soap in there
With the kitchen, I don’t skimp on handsoap, especially after raw meats!
The fine print of the coupon states that the *$10 purchase excludes Anti-Bacterial Classics Hand Soaps
Does anyone know if you can use the coupon Collin linked to plus a 20% off your order? I just got one in the mail and thought it would make a good deal if it can be combined. Thanks!
My local store will usually let me stack two coupons, I would think those two would work since its not “the same” coupon, but two different things. Of course YMMV, but I would definitely ask! Never hurts!
Or if you have one if those 10 off 30 coupons that are on the bottom of your receipt from taking the survey you could get
10 soaps at $3 each for $30 – $10 survey coupon =
$20 for 10 soaps $2 each! Yah!
I just did this this morning. I bought 3 soaps and 1 $1 lotion bottle at the front of the store to get me to $10. Then I got another soap free. So, 4 soaps and 1 small bottle of lotion all for $10. I paid 11 with tax, tax is a lot in IL!
LOL I was just going to post that they are having a sale on their new versions of sweet pea and moonlight path (my favorite) lotions in the 2 oz size for $1 so if you need a little extra, this would be a great item to get! Kristy you beat me to it!
I just went and my store read the coupon to me that says it cannot be used when buying antibacterial soap. I love their foaming soap. So the plan was to buy 4 and get 1 free. So in the end I just ended up buying 3, the sale was still a good price, but I was bummed I couldn’t get one free.
Do they actually sell any hand soap that isn’t antibac? I don’t think I’ve ever seen any and it seems kinda silly to have a q for a free non-antibac hand soap if they don’t even sell it. 🙂 If they do, my bad. 🙂
Yay, I’m down to my last bottle (from the last big sale)! I’m going to head over there tomorrow and stock up before they run out of my fave scents! :0)
For me this deal is better:
