    My BB&B will not let you use both a Yankee Candle coupon and a BB&B coupon. You have to use one or the other.

    • Erin

      Mine won’t either, I find this out a few months ago when I tried to use both.

    • melissa

      I was wondering since the Yankee Candle coupon says it can’t be combined with any other coupons.

    • Lisa M.

      Mine won’t either.

      • Kristen

        Same here.

        • KIMBERLY S

          My BB&B won’t combine both and their explanation didn’t make any sense…

          • Tory

            I agree! I asked SEVERAL times and they said it just wouldn’t.

    • Danae

      They only allow one coupon per item/discount. So if you had purchased other items, you could have still used a $5/$15 or 20%off q. I had to have my cashier explain it to me several times before I understood. They almost didn’t let me get the sampler pack and use the coupon, but we read the fine print on the coupon which didn’t state it couldn’t be combined with other offers, they tried it, and it worked.

    • Leslea

      My BBB would not let me use both coupons at one time, and I bought one large for $18.78 and one small just like the post said, so it came ot $16 something after the $10 off coupon, so they said I couldnt have the sampler because I didn’t SPEND (out of pocket expense) $20 because of the coupon. It was was of the worst transactions ever. And I had a friend with who was going to use the same coupon and deal, so we both walked away sad 🙁

    What does Bahama Breeze smell like?

    • Corina

      I was @ Yankee Candle last week making use of my Q. I was searching for a blue candle for my bathroom and I was sniff comparing. The Bahama Breeze smells floral and it’s scent was one of the stronger ones. Not over powering, but a nice aroma.

      • Mary

        Thanks!

    • Eli

      I loaded up on the votives a while back when they were cheap. The scent is more floral than tropical. Nice and pleasant.

  3. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    OMG! I hope that works! I’m making a trip tomorrow! EEK!

  4. Shauna

    I had a 20% off total purchase coupon too (in addition to the sale and the $10 coupon)… what a great deal for Mother’s Day! I got 4 medium candles that were on sale… there are more scents too… Night Jasmine, Mango Peach, and French Vanilla that are included in the 25% off. My store also had A LOT of Yankee Clearance.

  5. J

    The coupon referenced above shows that it is valid through May 22nd 🙁

    • fran

      This is still April !?! 🙂

    • J

      that was supposed to be a smiley face!! 🙂

  6. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Also – if you sign up for Bed Bath and Beyond’s email you get a 20% coupon making the total after the 20% and the $10 off $10.98!!!

    • Stefanie

      It says it will be a coupon for 20% off one item

      • Amber

        I don’t think you can combine the two coupons. Has anyone ever combined a 20% off and a $5 off?

        • Crissy

          My mom & I have both tried at different locations & been told we could only use one or the other.

  7. Lisa

    Just FYI, Bed Bath & Beyond will take expired store coupons. They don’t care what date is on there. They told me that when I got my wedding registry there, and I’ve never had a problem. I keep a stash of their coupons on hand!

    • Mom of M&M

      I have had the same experience with expired coupons there. I have some that expired years ago because I just keep holding onto them. They told me that I could have one coupon per item (20% Qs say “off one item”. So i keep thinking I might buy a shower gift off a bridal registry there…I like to buy one big thing and then add in a lot of small things (buy the baking pans, and add some measuring cups, spoons, rubber spatula, etc. Once home I throw in a cake mix, frosting, sprinkles, etc. Or, if I bought the sheets and/or towels on the registry, I’d add a laundry basket, clothespins, pack of hangers, etc. from BB&B and then add in some laundry detergent, fab. softner, etc.) So, basically what I’m saying is that I could use a coupon for EACH item AND the coupon could be expired! Pretty good deal. Hmm…maybe I should go there to buy the next shower gift…it’s been awhile.

  8. couponmom31

    Wow, love love LOVE this deal, thanks! I think I’ll be taking a trip tomorrow to get mine! 🙂

  9. Kelly

    Does anyone know how long this deal is going on?

  10. Tracy P

    WOW – This is the perfect gift for my mom for Mother’s Day (she LOVES the lilac), plus a huge savings for my pocket! She will love it – THANKS!!!!!

  11. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    If you don’t have a BBB close, I went to Target today and used the $10 off $25 coupon. Look candles that say At Home Yankee Candles (it is the Target Brand of Yankee Candles) They have 3 or 4 scents marked down as fragrances of the month. I got 2 medium candles for only 8.25 each.

    • Tracy

      The coupon says “excluding outlet locations, Yankee Candle Fundraisers and Target”.

    • Sandra Lee

      At Home is a Yankee Candle at Kohl’s. I didn’t know Target carried them as well.

  12. Kristi

    I just left Bed Bath & Beyond without any candles. They said after the $10 coupon, I would not qualify for the free spring 4 pack. Has anyone else run into this??

    • Cindy

      Kristi-I had that problem too. Also, last time I went and tried a similar Yankee Candle deal, they wouldn’t take the YC and the BBB coupon, said I had to use one or the other, I even asked for the manager and they confirmed this. They were nice but adament that it was against their policy to accept an MQ and BBB coupon for the same item.

      • Kristi

        Thanks Cindy- I didn’t even get that far (trying the BB&B coupon). Just assumed I would get the 4 pack if the pre-coupon total was over $20. Good to know though!!

    • Shannon

      I just got back and mine said the same thing. That I couldn’t use the $10/$25 and get the free sample pack because the total was under $20 to get the sampler pack. So I asked for a manager and she said “I will let you do it this one time but this won’t happen again.” Then I was told I couldn’t use the 20% off. I didn’t bother to have the manager come back up. I was happy with getting them for the $16.23. Thanks for posting this deal.

      • Gayle

        I got the candles and the sampler pack with no problem! i was dissappointed to learn that I could not use the BB&B coupon but was happy to walk out of the store only spending $16.23 on gifts that I could split up between my mother and step mom! Great deal!

    • yodell1

      I had the same issue. I truly believe it depends on the cashier at the register.

  13. dcoupons

    my bb&b would not take 2 coupons either .. but it was still a good deal using just the $10 off coupon 🙂

  14. gina

    my bb&b won’t allow me to combine a bb&*b coupon with a competitor (yankee) coupon

  15. kellib

    they would only take one coupon and would not give me the free sampler, so I said forget it. they were also very rude.

  16. jami

    Thsi sounds like a really great deal, but I will be burning the Bahama Breeze votives for a very long time as I ordered 4 18ct packs back in like February when they mismarked them for $1.99 an 18pack…Woo Hoo!!

  17. Aimee

    I just did this deal and had both a $5 off $15 and a 20% off one item in addition to the Yankee Candle coupon. The manager tried like heck to get all 3 coupons to work, but in the end he wasn’t able to do it. My cashier told me to call BBB and complain. It was apparent to me that their system wouldn’t allow them to use all the coupons. That said, there is no way people shouldn’t have gotten the sample pack for free.

  18. Christy

    I just got home and my BB&B would NOT use my $5 coupon in addition to the Yankee Candle coupon. It is still a good deal though. Thanks!!

  19. Megan

    Did this tonight but they wouldn’t take a BB&B coupon and the Yankee coupon but did give me the sampler pack for free. The French Vanilla is also on sale at my store (in addition to the other favors of the month) so if you don’t like/want the others, check and see if that one is on sale at your store also.

    • Megan

      errr… flavors…

  20. angie82199

    I just got home! I bought the big jar, small jar and got the free sampler for $16 and change! They would not combine the $10 off $25 and the $5 off $15, but its still a great deal! I will just save my $5 off $15 for another deal!

  21. tracy

    my store took the $10 yankee coupon and the $5 bbb coupon. the manager says they take both because the yankee is a manufacturer and the $5 is a store coupon.

    • ymurray

      what store did you have this success at?

    • Julie

      Hi Tracy,

      I tried at my BBB and they did not take both. What state are you in? Maybe I should check another store.

  22. Anna R.

    I went yesturday for my candles. I got the Big Bahama Breeze candle but got a different scent for the smaller jar. The only thing was I couldn’t find the FREE pack! I asked the sales girl and she told they give it at check out. I thought maybe you would want to know in case you go and don’t see it.

  23. mary

    thank you colleen for the scenerio and coupon i also have an in store 20% off sweet deal.

  24. Linda

    I didn’t read the comments before heading to BB&B. The manager said both coupons could not be used and I oh, so do not understand why. The Yankee Candle coupon is a manufacturer coupon… Whatever. She said she’d give it to me if it “made me happy.” And it did. 🙂

    • lori

      i just discovered why! My store said that the yankee coupon is a “competitor coupon” not a manufacturer coupon. So they honor it out of competition – they do not get a reimbursement from Yankee for it. So if they also took the BBB coupon – they’d get hit 2x.
      My manager took $10 off the big candle and then did the 25% off. Changed the calculations and I paid $20.plus change. still good deal.

  25. Nancy

    My Bed Bath & Beyond would not let me use the $5 coupon. They said Yankee won’t allow it, when using their $10 off. I know there was time you could use both.

  26. paula

    FYI girls.. the bed bath & beyond where i live in Tx would not take both q’s either but when taking the $10/25 they took the $10 of the larger candle before taking the 25% off so they jip you a couple of $. The manager said since it was not a mq that they are price matching.. hmmm whatever that is supposed to mean. Check your receipts.

    Thanks Colin on all the great deals!!!

  27. Tracy

    Yuck…my store manager would not accept the yankee coupon stating that it’s a “printed” coupon & they would not be reimbursed?!?!?!?

  28. Dawn

    Deal would not work for me either. First they told me I couldn’t have the the free 4pk sampler because I was using a coupon, then they told me I couldn’t use the BBB coupon and the yankee candle coupon together. What a bummer!

  29. Traci

    Just got back from BB&B and the manager said he could not accept both coupons, I told him that I read this deal on a very reputable coupon blog, he was not happy but he did take both coupons and i got the sampler pack. I wouldn’t have even tried to do the deal if I would have known that he really wasn’t suppose too 🙁
    Guess I should have read the comments.

  30. Stacy

    SOOOO frustrated…didn’t work for me either. I got my 8 week old out to get the deal for mothers day…and the lady wouldn’t take them either. What a wasted trip…bummer!

  31. Tamara

    I went to my local BBB (Springfield IL) today and they would not accept the $10 Yankee coupon. The cashier said they are not allowed to accept ‘printed’ coupons. I had them read the fine print on the coupon which says it can be used at retailers, but they were adament that I could not use it. She told me I would need to use the coupon at a Yankee Candle Store. I wasn’t a happy camper when I left.

  32. Nancy

    Me too – they accepted the $10 yankee candle coupon but not the $5.00 off BBB. Oh well, still got my $10 off but would have been so much more sweeter with another 5.00 off.

  33. cw

    I wish someone would have “crossed out” this deal with the yankee coupon and the BBB coupon. I went to my local BBB and just like everyone else, was denied the deal. I didnt have time to read the comments.

  34. Valarie

    The thing with the $5 of $15 coupon just happened to me. I called BB&B and they said that is was because the coupon stated that it was for one particular item. I could have used it if one of my items was $15, but that wasn’t the case after it took off the $10 Yankee Candle coupons. I could have, however, used a 20% off coupon, maybe two or three because they apply to each item.

  35. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    The fragrances will be on sale through the end of May, but there are 3 new fragrances on sale every month at 25% off. You can not use both a Yankee candle and a BBB coupon simply because Yankee has some of their own stores. That makes them now a “competitor”. BBB will however stack a vendor coupon and one of their own coupons on an item.

  36. Justine Levi

    I am soo excited about the awesome deals I got at BB&B yesterday! (btw, closest one is 3 hr drive from home).
    I went to get the Yankee Candle deal, as my Mother-in-Law loves Jar candles, especially Yankee. I had the save $10 on $25 Yankee coupon. PLUS a 20% off BB&B coupon (either from AllYou magazine, or Taste of Home, can’t remember).

    When I got to the store, I wanted to dig out my 2 coupons ahead of time. But I couldn’t find my 20% BB&B coupon ANYWHERE. I assumed I lost it somewhere while packing for our weekend trip (remember, I’m 3 hrs from home, can’t just go home and find it). So, I figure, Oh well! My bad for leaving in a hurry, and not being organized 🙁

    I went to get my candles (and a few other misc items, including finding an awesome 3 set baking pan set for my own mother, for less than the single pan I’d planned to get her).
    Was thrilled that French Vanilla scent was included in the spring fragrances, as that is my mom-in-laws fav scent! Got her the large Jar, myself the small mango scent jar, (and got the free votive sampler pack)!

    Best part about my trip!! I told the cashier, my story of losing my coupons. Asked if she had any in-store coupons i could use. And mentioned if she couldn’t do anything about a coupon, I completely understand, and it was totally my fault for not having my coupon.
    SHE GAVE MY 20% OFF MY ENTIRE ORDER!!! I thought it was amazing that she honored the coupon i had, even though i couldn’t prove it!!!!!
    She did have to work with the Yankee coupon a little, but it she didn’t have a problem with me using it!

    I paid $51.20 and saved $31.74!!!
    Just wanted to share my awesome story with y’all! And put in a good work for BB&B for honoring my 20% coupon!

  37. Candice

    I had a bad experience at Bed, Bath and Beyond trying to do this deal too. Unpleasant cashier/manager. I will not be shopping here anytime soon, if ever.

  38. Amber

    Just got an email for another $10 off any Yankee Purchase $25 or more!!!! Will be heading to BB&B to score some more and no you can not use this with the $5 coupon on their flyer!! Still its a great deal and a great filler for the Mothers Day baskets!!!
