X11/29/09 Yankee Candle Double Dip - How do I structures this?

[stacyloucks]

I hope I am posting this is the right place and not breaking any rules about posting the link. If I broke any rules, please delete, move or take away my chocolate.

I really love these candles for myself and for gifts.

Yankee candles website has BOGO 50% off. There is also a Buy 2 get 2 free coupon/code.

Yankee Candle Company (http://www.yankeecandle.com/yc/html/retail/Email_HTML/webCoupon_XF911A1.html)
It says one per customer, but if you have more than one customer in your life who might like the coupon, it will let you print one for each of them.

I tried this on their website and it took off the BOGO 50% off AND the B2G2F. The deal only applies to the large candles. My total for 4 large candles was $50.

So my questions:
1. Is this even a good deal?
2. Would it be a better deal at Bed Bath and Beyond using 20% off coupons and would I be able to use 4 20% coupons? It would be a great bonus if BBB had a sale on them before the coupon expires 11/29/2009.
$25 each at full price
Buy 4
$100
-20 (20% times 4)
-50 (2 free)
$30 for 4 large candles

Any input?

3. Have I spent to much time on this and should just go get some more free glade candles.


Thanks!

The 3 holiday scents are 25% off. Which could mean:

$18.74 each at full price
Buy 4
$74.96
-15 (20% times 4)
-37.48 (2 free)
$22.48 for 4 large candles

Anyone know the policy for BBB as far as BOGO and their 20% off coupons?

I'm in Oregon... My local BBBs take expired coupons... you can only use 1 coupon per purchase.. I have never tried to do multiple transactions.. just used either a $5 or 20% off. So either go in 4 times... or ask if you can make 4 purchases..

I could be wrong...but at out local BBB they suck! :) Was with a friend who tried using a $1 off manu coupon along with their 15% off store coupon...they only allow one. And since the BOGO coupon states REGULAR priced items, I doubt they'd allow it on their 25% off scent of the month, or to be combined with their in store 15% off.
