The only two sales where I really go wild nowadays are the Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Work Semi-Annual Sales, mostly because it's better than buying makeup and I'm getting items I'll be using on a daily basis anyway. This post is basically a gigantic round-up of what I got from the semi-annual sale at Bath & Body Works! I went in-store twice and made five (oops) orders online.

In store, I got a lot of fine fragrances:

Pink Coconut Calypso-coconut water, seaside freesia, sun-kissed lily, apple & driftwood

Beautiful Day- sunkissed apple, sparkling cassis, wild daisies, pink peony, fresh woods

I also bought two hand soaps:

The last thing I bought in store was one body cream:

Focus-Eucalyptus Essential Oil clears the mind. Tea Extract increases focus.

Next was my first online order, which came a few days after my in-store purchases

I got more fine fragrances in this order:

Island Papaya-f tropical coconut, fresh papaya & sugarcane

The last thing from this order was a candle:

Pink Petal Tea Cake-Pink Rose Petals, Pound Cake, Vanilla Glaze with Essential Oils

The second order was mainly shower gels (hint: when Bath & Body Works semi-annual sale hauls happen, it's usually best to get fine fragrances and shower gels in the summer and body creams and lotions in fall), and here's what I got (most of the shower gels I bought in this order I also have the fine fragrance version of):
