Bed Bath & Beyond should honor any coupon for up to 2 years after expiration. I recently found this out and used some expired coupons. :)
I also found out recently that Chick Fil A is the same way - they honor their coupons anytime. I used one last night with a 2008 date on it and they didn't care!

the only iron I was able to get with my cupon was the Clover one for applique with the small triangle shape on the end of the iron wand.

We just purchased a Shark at Target and love it. Initially we looked at Rowenta, but saved $25 and bought the Shark. It does an amazing job and so far impressive.

I looked at a GE iron for $11.99 at Target that I was thinking about getting for using in my sewing room as my present one is very very old. Anyone know how GE irons hold up in the long run?

I only have the small rowenta and never put water in it but I also read about all the leaky ones so I have a B&D for my big iron (and I don't put water in it either).

I go to Wal Mart and buy a cheap iron. I tend to knock irons over and they don't last too long when you do that. You don't feel as bad about it when it is a cheap iron.

Yikes! I hope you wear steel toed boots (or have fast reflexes). I would smash my toes for sure.

Yes, that is what I understand also. I have one from about 10 years ago and I still love mine.

I use a vintage iron when I press fabric for quilting. The thing weighs at least 5 pounds and is a dry iron - no steam. I use a Shark to iron my clothes for work. My husband bought it at Lowe's for 15.00 (they still sell it for 17.00 now) 5 or 6 years ago to do a carpet repair on his job site. He used the iron one time and stuck it in a cabinet at the house. A few months later, my B&D iron bit the dust, so I grabbed the Shark to use temporarily until I could get out to buy a new Iron. It has been used every day that I worked for the last 5 years. It has been dropped, over filled, run dry, knocked off the ironing board, fallen into the trash can - you name it it has been through it. It has never leaked once. It does have the auto shut off but it heats up so fast I don't even notice it. If you want a good iron, for 17.00 it can't be beat. I know how much it is because I am going to get another one as a back up.
