Get Paid to Buy Venus Holiday Gift Set (After Rebate)
OK, so I know I posted this Walmart deal earlier, however, I feel like it deserves a re-post as quite a few of you have left really helpful comments on that post regarding these offers. First, there are actually a couple cheaper sets than the ones I highlighted…
Venus Spa Breeze Holiday Gift Set Caddy with Bonus Free Allure Subscription
Only $9 + FREE shipping!
Includes:
Venus Spa Breeze Razor
Secret Lavender Body Mist (1.0 oz)
Olay Ribbons Body Wash (10 oz)
bath puff
All packed in a reusable shower caddy
Plus as an added bonus the Sensuous Skin Care Gift Pack includes a one year subscription to Allure Magazine or any one of 5 other publications
Venus Series Holiday Gift Set Caddy with Free Allure Subscription
Only $9.88 + FREE Shipping!
Includes:
Venus Embrace Razor
Venus Satin Care Shaving Cream (2.5 oz)
Olay Ribbons Body Wash (10 oz)
Bath puff
All packed in a reusable shower caddy
Plus as an added bonus the Sensuous Skin Care Gift Pack includes a one year subscription to Allure Magazine or any one of 5 other publications
And, even sweeter, there is in fact a small card inside these gift sets with the magazine offer info as well as details on how to obtain a $9.99 cash rebate! You can also go here for more info (look in the lower part of the Offer/Refund details for all the info on obtaining your rebate). BUT please keep in mind, you have to make your purchase by 9/30 and then you’ll have 30 days to submit for the rebate. Also, you should spot high value coupons inside these gift sets as well.
So, if you buy the $9 gift set (posted above) and submit for the $9.99 rebate… well, you are basically getting paid to buy the gift set! Yay!! 😀
(Thanks to all of you readers who left comments on the previous post!)
has anyone actually gotten the rebate yet?
I just got this and there is no rebate. Did I do something wrong when I ordered?
is there a minimum that you can buy, or rebates you can apply for, the info didn’t pull up for the rebate, do you know if it’s one per household
I ordered the $10 about an hour ago…cancelled and signed up for this.
I ordered a day or so ago at $10 and received an email saying it is being shipped. I sent a response asking if they would credit me $1.06 ($1 plus the 6% tax). Walmart is usually good about stuff like this, so I will see what happens.
I got my set in the mail today and it was full of samples too!
I just ordered 3 of the $9.00 for my family for Christmas. If need be, I will ask a friend to use the multiple rebates. I am so excited, thank you for spotting this deal and telling us about it. I have to start Christmas shopping now, so I can afford to pay for it w/o credit this year!
That might not work as you MIGHT have to have the sale receipt for the rebates…
Yeah I’m curious too how many rebates you can submit and if people had luck with getting them??
When I have done these in the past, it is one rebate per household address.
Awesome thanks! I have been waiting for an update to see if the rebate card was included. I did this last time and bought one. Glad I did because I heard there were a lot of people who only received a check for one even though they bought multiples. Just bought one this time too because I don’t want to risk it if they only give you one per household.
I got my rebate last time, but only submitted for one. Thanks for the heads up on this; only a matter of time until it sells out now.
the rebate page is not loading 🙁
same here
take the hip2save.com portion out
Sorry all! Just fixed the link! 🙂
If you click on the rebate page from the actual post thread… it will load from there. Not from your email… Hope that helps. Ü
Are these available in store with the free subscription?
I am confused on where I print my rebate form from?!?! Just ordered both sets!!
same, where are the rebates found? online or in the package when they arrive. Anyone know, thanks!!
From what i read… you can print off the rebate form but also it reads in the Allure page, that there should be information IN the package set concerning the rebate as well. I have not received mine yet… so not 100% on this, but that is what i read.
How many rebates can you get?
Hmmmm. I would love to know too, before I buy this…
I purchased this deal the last time it was up. The card will be located in the item. It will tell you to mail it back for the free magazine or located at the bottom it should say return it with the receipt for a rebate. I filled it out and mailed it in with the card. All in all it took about 8 weeks for me to receive my check.
when you send for a rebate do they send you a check in the mail or how does that work?? I have never sent a form in for a rebate before and have no clue.
Yep! They send you a check from whoever is offering the rebate. I would assume this one is from P&G but I could be wrong. When I’ve done rebates for things in the past its been a check from whoever is offering the rebate. Like Olay, I’ve gotten checks from them in the past! HTH!!
Can someone please help me? I just had the WORST experience at Walmart. I drove 20 minutes and carried my 5 week old son in a carrier all around the store shopping. I had 4 tide/ cascade/ febreze coupons and many others. The cashier rang up my order and after I handed her the coupons removed each item associated with a coupon then placed the coupons by the items. Ugh! Remeber I have my baby strapped to me… Ok so then she calls the manager because sone coupons were worth more than the item. He says thats ok, then he starts reading each coupon and tells me I can only use one coupon per purchase. I would have to ring up all 4 seperate transactions. I tried to explain a purchase meant “item” So he goes away and comes back and says sorry. Only one coupon allowed. This took about 20 minutes of me standing there. ( The cashier never even ran a single coupon through) so I was so mad that I told them to cancel my transaction. I wasted 20 minute drive each way, valuable coupon organizing and shopping time. My question is has anyone contacted Walmart corporate before? Is it worth is? I don’t want to waste anymore of my time. Thanks for listening to this rant.
You could contact corporate, but, I did on another issue and they really don’t seem to care
Absolutely contact corporate about that. I’ve contacted corporate before when I had an issue returning a piece of jewelry that broke after wearing it twice. They were very gracious, apologized, and gave me a gift card for more than I paid for the necklace because of all the trouble. It’s definitely worth your time to give them a call or e-mail them.
I would definitely contact corporate. I have never done it, but last time I had issues at Walmart with coupons the manager apologized several times for the employee andI was told Walmart was trying to get their employees to undertand dealing with coupons (not sure if all Walmart or locally, they had an internal letter going around).
Yes definitely call Corporate and give as much detailed information (managers name, cashiers’ name, etc). Make sure to focus on the inconvenience/cost/annoyance with a newborn child in a line for a lengthy time, etc. Tell them you expect a call back from corporate, not just the store manager. I’ve called twice and they never did anything for my trouble – they gave out giftcards years ago but the store is just so bad by me that they stopped! I made a point to tell them I have a SuperTarget less than a mile from their store and other stores and would not be returning unless Corporate management called me back.
I HAD THIS SAME ISSUE HERE IN NORFOLK NE AT WALMART. I GOT THE FRONT END CSM OVER THERE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE NOT GOING TO PAY ME CASH BACK BECAUSE THE COUPON AMOUNT EXCEEDED THE PRODUCT COST AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT ONE COUPON PER ITEM, MEANT ONE COUPON PER TRANSACTION. I ARGUEED WITH THEM A LITTLE BIT THEN REALIZED THEY WERENT GIVING UP ON IT. SO I JUST BOUGHT MY STUFF ANY WAYS AND HUNG ONTO THE COUPONS. THAT INIGHT I CALLED CORPORATE AND EXPLAINED TO THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND THEY APOLOGIZED AND GAVE MY NAME AND NUMBER TO THE STORE MANAGER, WHJO CALLED ME BACK WITHEN HOURS. I GAVE HER THE INFO ON THE RECIPT SUCH AS CASHIER AND CSM AND SHE HELD A MEETING WITH ALL OF HER FRONT END MANAGERS THE NEXT MORNING EXPLAIING THERE COUPON POLICYS. SHE ALSO MAILED ME A $25.00 GIFT CERTIFICATE WHEN MY; COUPONS WERE ONLY WORTH 4 DOLLARS AND I GOT TO KEEP THE PRODUCTS I PURCHASED FOR FREE BECAUSE SHE REVERSED THE CHARGE ON MY CREDIT CARD. YOU JUST HAVE TO BE NICE ABOUT IT AND JUST ACT REALLY BUMMED OUT ABOUT IT. AND THEY WILL TREET YOU NICELY AS WELL. GOOD LUCK!
print out the coupon policy before going into Walmart or any other store. walmart states they do not limit coupons. if there is a limit of coupons on the coupon it will say something like 4 like coupons per transaction. this is seen frequently on P&G coupons.
Just an FYI…the KID K’NEX building tub is in stock again at walmart.com for $10! I was FINALLY able to get one this time!
so sorry darcy, I have problems almost everytime I use coupons but I will never give up because I have no other option but to save every penny that comes my way! Keep your head up!
It looks like you can only chose the magazine subscription or the rebate. Is this how you are interpretting it?
that’s what it sound like to me to do. either magazine or rebate
that’s what it sound like to me “TOO”
Yes, that’s correct. You have to decide between the magazine or the rebate.
Is it only 1 rebate per household?
I just ordered one for my house and one for my mom’s house so that we can enter two different rebates! (seperate payments and cards) Also the rebate is in the gift basket correct? Just checking!
Yep, the rebate form is find inside the gift basket! 🙂
Thanks Collin I have saved so much with you and plus got quite a bit of my Christmas shopping done without leaving the house! I’m having a baby and my due date is 2 days after Black Friday, and I so don’t want to miss out on the deals! 😉
I’m confused about the rebate form. Is it just the slip that says “special bonus!” ??? or do you print the rebate page from the site and send the slip with it? So confused!
How do I get the rebate?
If you got a rebate the last time this deal was offered, does this count as your one rebate per household? Or can I still submit for a second rebate?
Can you go through ShopAtHome and get this deal as well? You’ll only get 2% cash back ($0.18 or $0.20) but hey, better than nothing! 🙂
So do we have to print off the rebate form and send it in?
anyone try to get more than one rebate?
It says it is valid until 09/30/2011 so does that mean we have to purchase by then or do they have to have the rebate form by then?!? If I buy today, I am not sure if I will have it by the 30th to do this. Anyone know??
BUT please keep in mind, you have to make your purchase by 9/30 and then you’ll have 30 days to submit for the rebate. Also, you should spot high value coupons inside these gift sets as well. (as per collins post)
It says you have to purchase by 9/30 and then will have 30 days from date of purchase to submit your rebate…
Oh, it also says while supplies last and this started 12/2010!! I wonder if they will even be doing it anymore 🙁
thanks for the heads up…I wouldn’t be buying it,as I highly doubt I would get a refund as they’ve been doing the promotion from last year.
Ok I just ordered mine, and I finally remembered to go through shopathome, how long does it usually take for credits to show up there, I realize the 2% on $9 isn’t much but I wondered when I’ll see it
Does anyone know if you can get the rebate again. I purchased this deal last year around this time.
Still a good deal with a free magazine subscription!
Is there on rebate per household?
cannot buy them – I am just seeing pictures no add to cart button
i pulled the site up and it still has an option to buy https://www.walmart.com/ip/Venus-Series-Holiday-Gift-Set-Caddy/15135806#rr and click add to cart
Thank you so much, Collin! This makes my day! 🙂
Can someone tell me who delivers this package, usps, ups…
generally from walmart it is FedEx
I have ordered two things from Wal-Mart (both in last 2 weeks), last week’s oders was delivered UPS and this week is coming USPS.
im scared to buy it, what if it doesnt include the rebate! because it doesnt say anywhere about the rebate!
the rebate is the alternative to the subscription. Since the subscription is worth 9.99 they give you the option to take the equivelant instead
I just found the rebate form – you must purchase $50 worth of products to get the $10 rebate! https://www.pgpinkrebate.com/pink_rebate.pdf
That’s a different rebate. Collin posted the correct rebate form on the bottom of the deal.
You can return it to the store, and since the shipping is free, you wouldn’t be out anything.
thanks guys! so you can return it to the store with no problem? ill give it a try and buy it 🙂 thanks COLLIN!
You need the receipt for the rebate? How do I get it if I purchase online? Do they mail the receipt with the package? Or I just print out the conformation e-mail?
Do you have to open these to send in the rebate? I am assuming I’ll have to repack it anyway since it says Free Allure on the outside that I would feel badly if the recipient thought she was also getting that.
I just ordered the Venus Holiday Set, total with tax $10.52, final cost after rebate .53 cents, Thanks Collin for helping us with all these great buys.
is it possible to get both and send in one rebate and get one subscription?
These kind of rebate offer is likely to be “one rebate per household/address”, so if you make 2 purchases and send 2 rebate forms (one for magazine sub. and another for refund) with 2 different address (no PO Box), you probably can get them both. Use your family’s address for 2nd rebate.
Can someone verify that we can spend less than $9 and still get a $9.99 rebate? I purchased the $9 one, wondering if there is not a limit you have to spend for PG products in order to qualify for this rebate? Thanks in advance!
Oops, should have said can you spend LESS than $9.99, not $9, sorry. And I have never tried to get a rebate with something I have purchased online, so how do we send in our proof?
the 9.99 is in place of the subscription so the price you pay has no baring on the rebate amount. Hope that helps!
This is NOT a P&G rebate. It is a rebate IF you decide to NOT opt for the magazine subscription…
I was able to remove the coupons and magazine rebate form from the caddy without tearing it apart, if you’re thinking about doing this as a gift. I kind of tilted the internal packaging forward and slipped the form/coupons out. And the “free Allure” offer is printed on a card-stock strip of paper that wraps around the caddy and is only taped on, so you should be able to remove it. The one I ordered was the one with the Razor, Puff, Olay Ribbons, and Satin Care creme, so I can only comment on my experience with this caddy! Hope that helped!
Since you already received the actual form – can we really mail them in after September 30? I did look on the link that was posted and it said offer ends Sept 30 (however, I have noticed on most rebates that it will say purchased by….mail by….). I am just wondering if the actual rebate card lists any of that. Also – how long did it take after you ordered the kit to receive the package? Thanks for any info!!
Look at the bright side! If this rebate does not work, it WILL work for the P&G Pink rebate, where you spend $50 and get $10 rebate. 🙂
i purchaed these for $5.00 on clearance after Christmas last year and I got the $10 rebate. I do not know if the same will happen this year, but I hope so.
Just purchased it and can’t wait to receive it! Thanks for sharing. I love Allure magazine and I didn’t want to pay just for the Allure subscription.
Can we double up with the rebates and submit for the $9.99 refund, then for the $10 WYB $50 pink P&G Rebate?! I read the fine print on both… Allure one only needs a “copy” of the receipt. P&G needs the original. Would that work?!? 😀 I’m excited now!
oh wow! your a genius. thats pretty smart! i would do that! 🙂
what if i bought 2 of this offer, but for 2 different households, and want to include both in the $10 WYB $50 pink P&G Rebate? would that work? anyone know?
or do you think i can only use one of this offer toward the $50 total?
Multiples of an item should work. The rebate doesn’t say you need to buy a certain number of items, just $50 worth. I often buy more than one Olay moisturizer (the same kind) and am able to get my rebates.
what is the PG pink Rebate?
Did Collin post about that?
Where do I find the info?
I bought a bunch aof pink ribbon yogurt the other day, do they qualify?
Please please, explain, I am intrigued!!!
Would you all mind sharing with me the info on the P&G rebate? Could you share a link to some infor? I would love your help.
THANKS!
here’s the link!

spend $50, mail in original receipts and write in UPCs. they will mail you a $10 rebate and will donate $10 to breast cancer awareness!
Just thought I would point out that if you go the magazine route, you have the option to pick from a few other magazines, such as Glamour and Lucky (my personal favorite).
Just to let you all know….when this deal came around last December, I opted to go the magazine route instead of the refund. I’m still waiting for the magazines to come……
Mine came today. No samples at all. After all of you got samples galore I feel cheated! 🙁
I have done other Allure and magazine deals multiple times with other purchases and you can only get 1 rebate per household. I did it with the Head and Shoulders and the ProFlower. I submitted two rebates for each (total 4) and received only 1 refund for each (total 2) and letters for the other ones stating that I could only request one per household. Please be warned that its a risk that you might have to take if you plan to order more than one.
Ok got mine today, no samples bummer. The special bonus card doesn’t say anything about a refund. On the site though it says no thanks under the magazines. If I click on that is that how I get the refund? If not I want to get one of the magazines. I would rather the money though. Thanks for the help and all the offers.
if you go to the allure holiday promo website (where you would normally enter the magazine code) there is a big paragraph of fine print where you can submit for a $9.99 refund.
Last year I purchased 4 for Christmas but could only get one 10.00 rebate back. Still found it as a pretty good deal along with my coupons. Thanks, kim
