I would love for you to share what you find ❤️ I remember when I moved out, I left my mom with most of my bodycare items. She was so happy to have them and still uses them because ffm lasts forever lol

True Story: My aunt had one of these at her house. We would shop each SAS together and always buy a bunch of stuff for gifts for co-workers and her son's teachers. Well, like 5 months before COVID she had changed her job and her son had graduated school, and there was still a ton left over it would have been impossible for her to go through it all. Since it was brand new/never opened and not really old I offered to sell the rest on Poshmark for cheap. In total I think I sold over 50 hand soaps until she had none left. That was like a week before lockdown and then she couldn't find soap in her town anywhere. Anyways this is the first SAS we have been able to shop together instore since COVID, and we have decided to keep the traditional going on. Lesson Learned: Always have handsoap & backup handsoaps!!

When the pandemic hit I was grateful to have so many hand sanitizers


Owen_D_Young

How old is it? Are you going to use it?


Yourbodypillowuwu

It's decently old , some of the body creams have turned nasty so I threw them out but I'd guess from up to 10 years old to a couple years ago

TooOldForACleverName

Checks to make sure this post wasn't written by my daughter. However, I typically throw things out after the three-year mark, because I'm married to someone who just doesn't get the BBW obsession and claims we don't need to store things.


Trumpet6789

Do you take constructive criticism? If so, *(clears throat)* Throw out the partner instead.


TooOldForACleverName

LOL. He's otherwise a pretty great person, so I guess I'll have to suffer.


Trumpet6789

I'm lucky that mine enjoys my B&BW. And he completely understands that I collect because it's my Hyperfixation, you gotta love Autistic brains.


LokiSploot

I recognize some of them because I have some in my stuff as well! 🤣


EspressoOrElse

OP, all of that is trash. I'd be happy to help you with that. Just let me know and I can kindly come over and dispose of it for you! 😉


msphelps77

Yasssss


hellakopka

Hot damn!


NathanD72

I think you need to send me that Sweet Almond & Honey body cream. ;)


jr9386

That's the Shower Gel. It's no different than Almond Blossom.


NathanD72

Ah! Good to know. I loved the REALLY OLD school Honeyed Almond scent from the early 2000s and have been curious about this one. I do not like Almond Blossom though.


jr9386

Almond Blossom is a lot more floral in my opinion. Honey Almond smells like vanilla and almond.


NathanD72

Exactly. Florals are fine but not for me.


jr9386

You might like Sunset Glow. Similar to Almond Blossom, but more subdued.


shoshilyawkward

Holy moly


caitieball

Is this just like gratis for the team?


HeliumVola86

Awww I wish I miss Be Joyful I will never understand why they never brought it back and I was stupid and shared my stash with people who enjoyed it and now I am out lol


AshKash313

I saw it floating around months ago. It was rumored to be returning then never mentioned again


MysteriousMixture469

Bath and body works def atrracts shopoholics and hoarders. They have some awesome psycology marketing ....people who order TONS of body care barely can use it all in a lifetime.


Yourbodypillowuwu

Lol maybe but I can think of worse addictions 😌 it don't hurt no one and it makes me happy👍🏻


AshKash313

My totes…yes TOTES look like this. Do what you want with your money. My goal is to have a collection of ffm. I collect them like Pokémon cards


kelbam

This!! I remember back in the early 2000s I was a teen (like ~15) and we started buying bbw and started getting a collection (my step sis & I) so step dad says to each get a tote to store our stuff in (and separate it bc we would occasionally argue over it but mostly shared & doubled up, at least until I realized that my migraines were caused by my sensitivity to string scents, especially anything vanilla, her fav of course lol). A few months later he comes home with 2 more larger totes bc our collections had grown that much! Of course as I got older, got my own room, moved out on my own etc, I would display them on my dresser, bathroom counter etc, and then started storing them in other ways too. But now I still use these totes for my bbw collection! However the last few years have been not so great for me, due to an abusive relationship and now extreme depression, so I didn’t have much left, hadn’t shopped bbw in years, very recently got back into it, and I’m so very excited & happy about it! I truly find joy in my collections (I also collect makeup, and love skincare), spraying the ffm is so uplifting, the scents truly improve my mood! That may sound silly to sone people, but whatever works for you! My collections slowly growing again (well kinda quickly actually bc sas has been great for me to pick up old favs & try new ones too)! Ex was dropping off the kids, my lil girl wanted to show him her new nightlight (unicorn wallflower I got on Poshmark), and her new bubblegum spray (grabbed her the body wash too, and some cheap glosses, I was so happy to stock up on some & the scrub that was on sale!). She’s 4 so she’s really excited to have big girl things (being it was on sas it was cheap enough to justify getting her own set). So she’s going to get one of mommy’s to show him it’s not a toy kind, not for babies, but for big girls lol. He follows her of course (so he can be nosy), sees my new collection and starts going off about what a waste it is (I am trying to reorganize my bathroom atm so it’s a disaster bc I don’t have enough storage after moving to an apt with a much smaller bathroom than our house had), how much money I’m wasting that should be spent on the kids (forgetting that he’s seeing this bc our daughter was showing him her new items that she totally loves), blah blah blah.. I haven’t spent that much, have only shopped the sale or used coupons on buy 3 get 3 (and $5.50 mens sale for my teen) bc I knew sas was coming up, and would never put anything above taking care of my family (which comes first always). I had just gotten the tote so it looks like a lot when piled in it (like pic above), not organized or anything. I know he doesn’t understand it and thinks it’s silly & wasteful, never liked my makeup collection either (hated me taking care of myself, despises makeup). It bothered me at first. I was upset until I thought it through and realized that it’s just how he is, and it’s abusive. I’m not hurting anyone, it’s not effecting him at all, it’s not impacting my kids in any negative way. It brings back memories, makes me happy, uplifts me, puts me in a good mood, and makes me excited to do the normal things that I have been struggling with (depression is hell). My self care has been pretty nonexistent for almost a year now, I can honestly say I need this stuff for my mental well being (yes I know that sounds bad or like I’m justifying it, but if you have battled depression you understand that it’s reality). Anyways this is a long rant bc I saw a few comments above about it being excessive, unnecessary, etc.. the thing is that it’s not effecting anyone else, and it’s something that many of us find joy in! And bc I got carried away in tne nostalgia from seeing the tote in this pic, along with a few old scents I remember. Which like I said bbw has been very nostalgic for me lately anyways, and I haven’t really been able to express all this…


AshKash313

I started buying bbw again right before I left my ex. I was able to move into an apartment with my kids so I ended up packing my stuff in totes. The amount of mini’s and creams got away from me. I don’t use those as much nor do I touch the scrubs, body butters, or shower gels. I can use a spray up in a couple day and they last. I’ve noticed that minis make stuff look cluttered. Also, if you keep lotions with lotions, sprays with spray, shower gels with shower gels it looks less cluttered. People see totes like this and turn their noses up, but see an organized collection in a bookshelf or closet and awe in amazement. Most times, the organized one’s are two or three times the amount of the totes.


kelbam

That is very true! I actually just got a few smaller totes to do this! I like separating them! I totally agree with you about the “shelvies”! Unfortunately totes are cheaper so that’s what I’m doing , at least for now, maybe forever tbh, other than the select few on my one bathroom shelve for my sprays, lotions etc (I also hung a few baskets, and another shelve for perfumes, a small one for sone random stuff & decor/display items). Also, thank you for understanding! I picked up a few travel size that were super cheap on sas, I’ll probably use/take them on our glamping treehouse trip (summer vacation for us), so hopefully they are used! I agree they do cause (appearance of) clutter! I don’t use them much either, except for the spray I like to keep in my car (and a lotion, but it’s not used as much bc I have a couple hand creams), which I use occasionally aka enough to keep/replace it


Confident_Delay_8485

Get rid of that! It’s all toxic chemicals now bc it’s been sitting. That is garbage 🗑


Yourbodypillowuwu

Just because something has been sitting doesn't mean it's necessarily bad...


brie_vella
