Bargains

Nathan and I made a trip to the Bed Bath and Beyond "as is" clearance shelf today. This shelf is a collection of items that have either been damaged or are missing parts. It does not always guarantee a bargain because about 50% of the time it is full of things like broken dishes, as seen on TV items, and mismatched ugly sheets. However, today I feel like we hit the jackpot. Not only did they have good items, but the only problems with the items were the packages. I was tempted to buy a set of glasses for $2.98 but I resisted the temptation. We ended up buying 4 great items.

OXO Good Grips 12" tongs with nylon heads: Originally $12.99 We payed $2.98
OXO Good Grips water bottle: Originally $14.99 We payed $2.98
OXO Good Grips mandolin slicer: Originally $14.99 We payed $2.98
Brita Filters- 4 pk: Originally $23.99 We payed $6.98

The total bill was $17.04
Original Total was $71.64
We Saved a total of $54.60

What a bargain, especially considering that the only difference between the products we bought and the full price products in the store was the damaged packaging!

Next time you are in Bed, Bath, and Beyond make sure you stop by the "as is" shelf. You may only find a pile of ugly sheets but you never know when there will be a good deal.
