There are lots of other ways to save besides the infamous blue and white mailer Bed Bath & Beyond coupons, though! Check out these money-saving secrets to save even more.

1. Know where to find store coupons.

There are actually quite a few ways to get those coveted blue and white Bed Bath & Beyond coupons. Where can you find them OR simply get more of these money-saving certificates? Here’s how:

  • Sign Up for Email Newsletters: When you sign up for the Bed Bath & Beyond email newsletter, you’ll receive an in-store coupon within 24 hours for 20% off ANY single item.
  • Sign Up for College Emails: Whenever you sign up for college emails, you’ll instantly get a welcome email with a coupon valid for 20% off your entire purchase (in-store and online) plus free standard shipping whenever you use your .edu email address.
  • Sign Up for Movers Emails: Whenever you sign up for ‘Your Move’, you’ll instantly receive a 20% off your entire purchase coupon, valid in-store OR online!
  • Get Mobile Offers: Sign up for mobile offers and you’ll also receive a coupon within 24 hours for 20% off ANY one item, valid in-store OR online.
  • Request Direct Mail: Sign up to receive direct mail coupons and promotions from Bed Bath & Beyond, and you’ll get a 20% off ANY item in-store coupon in your mailbox!
  • Check Your Magazines: You can often find 20% off a single item coupon in various magazines, such as Better Homes and Garden, Real Simple, Seventeen, and more.

2. Don’t throw coupon mailers away!

Although Bed Bath & Beyond coupons have a printed expiration date, these coupons never really expire, and most stores will accept them beyond the expiration date as a courtesy to you. Still, you’ll want to glance at your coupons as some will be reduced to only 10% off after the expiration date.

When redeeming, the best part is that there’s no need to split up your transactions as most stores will allow you to use multiple store coupons per transaction, with a limit of one coupon per item.

That means if you’re buying three items, you can use three 20% off ANY single item coupons (or other applicable coupons) as long as they apply to each purchase. Plus, you can even use these coupons on clearance merchandise, sale items, and occasionally on brands listed in the exclusions as many cashiers do not read the fine print. You cannot use coupons on diapers wipes, formula, or baby food.


3. Forget your coupons? No worries!

If you’ve ever made a purchase but forgot to bring your Bed Bath & Beyond coupons with you, don’t fret because Bed Bath & Beyond will offer a coupon adjustment! Just bring your receipt and coupon into the store within 14 days after your purchase, and they’ll give you a refund of the coupon amount.

Keep in mind that if an item was on sale when you purchased it without the coupon, but then is no longer on sale when you bring in the coupon, you’ll only get the discount on the current price.


4. Price match your purchases.

Bed Bath & Beyond has a great Price Match Guarantee and even accepts unexpired competitor’s coupons for products also available at those competitors. They will price match any retailer who sells products in both retail stores and online under the same name, as well as Amazon.

When shopping with a Bed Bath & Beyond store coupon (while also looking for a price match), note that they’ll only apply the price match OR the coupon – whichever provides the best discount. According to their price match policy, you may use a manufacturer’s coupon together with a price match.

A handy way to compare prices OR to see if you should ask for a price match instead of using a coupon is to scan products using Amazon’s App. While shopping at Bed Bath & Beyond, just scan the product barcode by clicking on the camera icon within Amazon’s App to see their current selling price.


5. Don’t skip past the health & beauty aisles.

If your store has a Harmon Face Values department with aisles and aisles of beauty, personal care, and household items, you can actually score some great deals there! Each month, you’ll find a Harmon Savings Booklet at the front of the store or in a basket by the department and it’s filled with coupons.

Even better, be sure to check the endcaps in this department as you may find clearance baskets –AND you can use these coupons on clearance items! However, note that the Harmon coupons cannot be stacked with a Bed, Bath & Beyond store coupon or manufacturer’s coupons.

Hip Tip: Sign up for the Harmon Face Values email newsletter and you’ll receive a $5 off $20 in-store coupon, valid at Harmon Face Values stores or in the Harmon departments inside Bed Bath & Beyond stores. You’ll receive the coupon in your inbox within 24 hours.


6. Stack the savings!

In addition to price matching, you CAN stack unexpired manufacturer’s coupons with Bed Bath & Beyond store coupons! The manufacturer’s coupons must be used for the exact item stated, and you can only use one manufacturer’s coupon for each item purchased.

And, you can even earn cash back by purchasing select items at Bed Bath & Beyond with the Ibotta App! Since Bed Bath & Beyond has a Health & Beauty Department, you can surprisingly score great deals on personal care products, skin care, cosmetics, and more by stacking coupons and rebates!


7. Shop the clearance sections on Monday.

Rumor has it that Bed Bath & Beyond restocks its clearance sections over the weekend, making Monday or Tuesday a prime day to shop those markdowns with your coupons in tow.

The clearance shelves are usually located in the center aisles, at the back of the store, or right as you enter and are marked with yellow stickers. However, be sure to check the end caps facing the outer perimeter of the store (furthest away from the main walkway) for overstock and more clearance.


8. Organize coupons on your phone.

My Offers is an easy way to organize your paper, email, and text offers into one virtual wallet so you can access and redeem your coupons on the go – in stores and online! My Offers simply links your coupons to your email address, giving you a fast and reliable cloud source for all of your coupons.

To use your offers in-store, simply pull up My Offers on your mobile device or downloading the Bed Bath & Beyond app for iOS or Android. Tap the coupon you would like to use and present the barcode to the cashier at checkout. Easy peasy!

By signing up for My Offers, you’ll be able to add paper coupons for online use by entering the 8 digit MO code OR scanning the barcode found on your coupon. However, please note that if you upload a coupon into your My Offers account, it will not be accessible after the expiration date.

*NOTE: My Offers is shared between Bed Bath & Beyond and buybuy BABY. However, Bed Bath & Beyond and buybuy BABY online and mobile coupons cannot be applied across sites. BUT, the Bed Bath & Beyond site may carry the buybuy BABY product you are looking for. If so, you’ll be able to use any current, eligible Bed Bath & Beyond coupons to purchase a buybuy BABY item.


9. Watch for gift card promotions & rebates.

Be sure to watch for Bed Bath & Beyond gift card promotions! Whenever you purchase qualifying items in-store or online, you’ll receive a Bed Bath & Beyond gift card. You can view the gift card offers on the Bed Bath & Beyond website or watch for promotional tags on eligible items in-store.

Hip Tip: To save even more while shopping, consider buying discounted Bed, Bath & Beyond gift cards first on sites like Raise.com, eBay.com, Amazon, and even at your local grocery store!


10. Make note of their return policy.

Bed Bath & Beyond has a pretty generous return policy! If you have the original receipt, you’ll receive a full refund paid to the original form of payment for up to one year after purchase. If you don’t have a receipt and if the purchase was made in the last 365 days, they will try to locate the purchase using any of the following:

  • Credit/Debit Card
  • Store or Merchandise Credit Number
  • Gift Card Number
  • Order Number (if applicable)
  • Registry Number (if applicable)
  • Checking Account Number

If they can’t find a record of purchase, they will either complete an exchange for the current selling price minus 20% or provide a merchandise credit for the current selling price minus 20% for the possible use of a coupon.

Hip Tip: If you end up returning an item that you used a coupon on, you can get the same discount applied on the new item you are buying. But, if you don’t want to purchase another item, I’ve been told that you CAN get your coupon back by asking a manager who will print one for you.


11. Check inventory before making a special trip.

Because nobody wants to waste a trip to the store, Bed Bath & Beyond has two great services that can help you to see what’s in stock near you OR even reserve a product and pick it up when convenient.

  • Find in Store: This web tool lets you check to see if a store near you has the product you’re wanting on its shelves before heading out. Just look for the “Find in Store” button on the product page and input your location to see if it’s in stock near you before heading out.
  • Pick Up in Store: This tool allows you to create an online request to hold the item at the store location that has it. Bring your “Pick Up” email and form of payment to the store where you’ll then pay for your item and use any applicable coupons you have.

12. Going away to college? Read this!

If you’re going away to college, you may want to take advantage of their convenient Moving Solutions service – it’s FREE! Instead of packing up and hauling your stuff across the country or state, just head to your local Bed Bath & Beyond or online and do your shopping.

You can have your purchases shipped directly to your school or to the Bed Bath & Beyond store near your campus and pick it up when you get there at no cost to you! While online shoppers pay shipping charges, and this deal is only valid from May-October, but you’ll skip the hassle of toting, or packing and shipping, the items yourself. If shipping your order directly to the school, you’ll need to know the date your school begins accepting deliveries and the address of the dorm or central receiving facility.
