Somehow I wind up in one of their stores from time to time.

I sometimes buy something too. I needed a new scale and got
a nice discount on it. It was pricey, but it did a number of
things the lower prices one’s didn’t.

I’m pretty happy with it. I was happy before it. Smile...

Many commercial buildings are kept too cool anyway. 78-80 degrees is comfortable if the circulating fans keep the air moving and the occupants are not overdressed. On a 90-degree day 78 can feel downright chilly when you walk in!

I get tension migraines, even more so since the dog’s cancer diagnosis and I used to go in and use the horribly expensive demo Shiatsu chair to stop them.

The employees were fine with that.

Then they stopped selling the chairs and the demo unit was gone.

Haven’t been back more than a few times, since, mostly to see if the chair came back.

Glad that worked out for a while anyway.

Sorry to hear about them.

Hope you’ve found another way to get rid of or prevent them.

I haven’t been in one in a while but I don’t recall them selling whirlpools.

BB&B was featured in the movie “Click.”

There’s nothing at a BB&B that I can’t get cheaper somewhere else. Haven’t been in one in years. MyPillow is a factor, but not the root cause.

‘Baseless?’

Well, I think that I know everything that I will ever need to know about you and your opinions.

Now that’s poor and stupid management. I’m sure the women whor who shop there don’t want sweat while they’re shopping. But more failures, more failures, bankruptcy. Good luck

My dad’s great philosophy was “Ya gotta keep laughing or you might start screaming”.

Hey, now I know how to cut down on my screaming...

Thanks.

Smile...

I don’t know why, but I don’t let folks bother me all that
much. I’m human so of course things do bother me, but I
try to use logic to get out of it.

You take care...

More than likely they’re just adjusting the thermostate. I recall retail stores doing that during Carters years.

Personally my air condition is on 78 because i still want to feel like it’s summer and not like a refigerator truck!

Whirlpools was an attempt at a joke. I have no idea what they sell really. I’ve been in one once to get my mom a present many years ago.

A lot of their stuff is from China.

They’re not sending 20% off coupons like they used to.

I think the Lowes near me uses little to no a/c.
It always seems hot inside during the summer months.
