Bath and Body Works Haul: Semi-Annual Sale!

Hey everyone!!

It seriously feels like forever since I've been able to talk to all of you!  I know a week and a half is a LONG time to go without a post, and I've missed you guys!! As you know (if you've been reading my blogs) I'm pretty busy in the summer with work and summer courses at a local college.  But, I have the day off today and tomorrow so I'm going to be stocking up on blog posts for you all!  

Anyway, if you're as in LOVE with Bath & Body Works as I am, you probably know this week was their Semi-Annual Sale--they had huge sales on things!  I went the first day two hours after they opened and there were already things I wanted that were gone!  I didn't need much, since I did a Bath & Body Works Haul not too long ago, but I had to go and check out some of the deals!  I didn't come away with as much damage done as I thought I would, but here's what I did pick up!

As I'm sure most of you know, I'm addicted to the Bath and Body Works candles from Slatkin & Co, which were on sale (most scents but not all) for $10, of half off!  And if you read my May Favorites post, you know that I've been absolutely obsessed with the Lemon Mint Leaf candle.  Unfortunately, when I got there, they didn't have any of them left in the 3-wick size!  I was so sad, but instead I settled for a couple of the mini-sized candles in that scent for only $2 each.  I also picked up a Black Berry Grapefruit candle.  It was only $10 and I'm burning it right now as I type and it smells incredible.  I also grabbed a Coconut Lime Verbena scented candle because it smells so fresh and clean--it's a great bathroom scent!

Then, I picked up a Wild Citrus Sunflower shower gel for only $3, as well as a Nectarine Mint hand sanitizer for $3 as well.

Finally, I picked up two of their foaming hand soaps.  These are my favorite--I love to have a stock pile of them and switch out my scents every so often.  I picked up Kitchen Lemon and Fresh Picked Raspberries for $3 each, and they are both PERFECT for the summertime!

So, there it is!  Like I said, I didn't go crazy and buy a ton of things but I did pick up some fun goodies for myself since there was such incredible deals :)  

I'm off to clean my room then work on some more blogs so I don't end up going this long without a post again! 

 If you bought anything from this sale, make sure to leave it in the comments!

Bath and Body Works Haul + Mothers Day Smiles

Hey everyone!

I'm so excited for this post for SO many reasons! First, because I haven't done two posts in one day in a LONG time.  And second, because I'm obsessed with what this haul is...like literally obsessed!  It's a Bath and Body Works haul! 

 Before I continue though, I want to wish you all a happy Mother's Day once again!  It's a rainy and gross Mother's Day where I live, but nonetheless I spent the morning baking my favorite apple-oat-rasin muffins and watching a movie with my momma :)The reason I didn't put this up earlier was because it includes my mom's present--but now that she's opened it, I can put it up!  Also, I want to apologize for the quality of the pictures being so poor--my camera decided it was time to go to camera heaven :( So, until I get a new one (which will hopefully be tomorrow), I have to use my iPad or phone to take pictures! I hope it's not too annoying!

I'm sure many of you have heard of Bath and Body Works, and probably are as obsessed with their candles as I am.  But, this weekend they had a sale going on for 2 of their 3 wick candles (the big ones) for $20.  They're usually $19.50 each, so it's basically 2 for the price of 1, which is amazing!  They also had their little mini candles for 2/$5, so of course I picked some of those up to include in a giveaway I have planned for if I get to 300 followers! :)

These are the candles I picked up for myself (and for my giveaway!)  

First, I got four of the mini sized candles in Peach Bellini, Bahama Fizz, Caribbean Escape and Aloha Vanilla.  I'm in LOVE with the Aloha Vanilla scent, but they didn't have any bigger ones left :(.  Some of these minis are going to be included in my upcoming giveaway!

I also picked up four of the big three-wick candles in Peach Bellini (I've already gone through one of these...it's one of my favorites!), Pink Sangria, Lemon Mint Leaf (my new favorite--it smells like a lemonade stand!) and a Stress Relief candle in Vanilla Verbena which smells amazing!

Then, for my mom's mothers day present, I got her their VIP Mother's Day gift set, which was only $20 with any $40 purchase. 

I didn't get a picture of it before my mom opened it, but this is from the website!  It's a super cute straw tote bag, a loofah, and tons of their products!  It comes with a Wildberry Dahlia foaming hand soap, a Wild Berry Tulips fragrance spray, hand lotion, shower gel and lip gloss.  It also included a mini Lilac Blossom candle.  I was scared she wouldn't like the scent, but she loved it! :)  It was the perfect Mother's Day present, especially for my mom who never treats herself to these types of things!  I also threw in a few other things, but the tote from B&BW was the main gift!

These deals on candles as well as the VIP tote are still available at Bath and Body Works as well as on their website!! :)

I hope you all enjoyed this little haul and are having an amazing day with your mom, whether you're in a country that is celebrating today or not :)

Make sure to comment and let me know what you've done today for Mother's Day!
