Any Bed Bath and Beyond coupons?
 
Ok, it seems like I used to get 35 of these suckers in the mail every week. They're usually the 20$ off type. NOW, of course, I need to make some purchases and there are none around.

Does anyone have any that they can spare? Thanks for putting up w/ my groveling! :o

Yes, I have one good until Nov 14th - 20% off a single item. PM me a mailing address and it's yours.

FYI, BB&B accept the coupons of their competitors and I have had absolutely no problem with them with expired coupons (their system will scan even their expired coupons).

Once in a while they or Linen'n'Things will mail a 20% off entire order coupon.

Here is a 20% off entire order LNT coupon:

(Second the OP's koko recommendation).

That coupon expired Sept. 2, 2005 :(

I've heard that BB&B accepts expired coupons, but this might vary by store. I've also heard that you can bring your receipt back to BB&B, give them your coupon then, and get a price adjustment.

LNT well certainly give you an adjustment if you bring back your receipt and the coupon as I have done that frequently.

absolutely true in sf on both counts

Both these stores are highly competitive in terms of each other's coupons. They will adjust the price of an old purchase if you bring it back with coupon (because, after all, you could just return the item and buy it again with coupon, so why not save that trouble). They will take each other's coupons. (Typically I take a BB&B 20% off one item coupon into LNT. They don't actually care if BB&B doesn't carry the same item.)

No experience with expired coupons, but it wouldn't surprise me. Since both stores are nearby, I still get such a supply of them in the mail that I always have a new one around, so I haven't bothered to try an expired one. I can probably spare a current 20% off one item to BB&B if you'd like me to mail you one. I know there are a couple at home, and you're welcome to one, but I don't know how soon they expire. Might also have $5 off $15 or more; that usually comes in the BB&B ad circular. PM an address.

BB&B
 
One thing to remember with BB&B coupons is that, in my experience, they only apply one cert to one item. You can bring in 10 certs and apply them to 10 items, but if you bring in only one cert for a % off, you will only get a % off on one of the items.

First a disqualifier, LNT and BBB are the same to me, there is one of each near my house and I can't keep track of which is which.

That said, LNT (I think) will accept expired coupons where the discount is on a single item. I had an expired coupon with % of entire order and the cashier said policy is not to accept it, only to accept expired coupons for a single item.

Folks, someone was kind enough to send me a coupon, but feel free to continue the informative discussion! :)

Thanks for the BBB and LNT coupon exchange. My friend wants to buy somethings from BBB and this will help her out.

Accepting expired coupons may be limited to CA. When I lived in CA, I understood that CA had some law or laws which limited expiration dates. My understanding was that coupons didn't expire but neither did unused vacation days (my former employer limited the maximum which could be accrued at any one time, but any which had been earned by 9/30 didn't expire at 12/31 as they did with those in other locations across the country).

expired coupons
 
I have used many expired coupons at BB&B and L&T both. Neither seem to care, in fact it was a salesperson that told me not to throw them away.

BBB Coupons Never Expire in NYC
 
In NYC they will always take expired coupons.
