The ‘beyond’ part of the store was falling behind...

They closed three stores in my market long before MyPillow was even a thing. Brick and mortar stores are going the way of the DoDo bird.

Not everything is about the left’s hatred of Trump and his ilk.

I think we may see stores that rely heavily on imports and such going out of business for lack of new stock. I kind of don’t think BBB is losing stores due to My Pillow only.

I don’t think dumping My Pillow was a factor. This store has been hurtin for awhile.

I love it when a boycott works against these unAmerican woke leftist corporations.

We did not shop there for Xmas and we usually do. Doom on Bed, Bath and Begone!. I side with Mike .

Mike Lindell also went ballistic advertising internet sales. With the pandemic keeping shoppers home, he cashed in big.

Atta Go Mike!

Coca Cola is next.

I am sure there are some scented candles that can turn this state of affairs around.

It may very well be Karma, but I seriously doubt it’s a cause and effect related to the my pillow business

I guarantee they’ll say it has nothing to do with cancelling “my pillow”!

Having shopped at Bed Bath and Beyond, I think there was a lot more wrong with their business model. For example their inventory is expensive compared to alternatives. I suspect they have too many options, in that each inventory item has a high fixed cost and not all of them sell well. There are other problems as well. But it can’t be blamed exclusively on their politics. I read an article that posited that the wokeness of some companies is because they are failing and they’re hoping desperately to attract both publicity and a new clientele. One of the examples given was Coke, which has experienced falling sales for a very long time. Coke was saying, “Hey, we’re with you so please don’t ban us just because our product is terribly unhealthy.” JC Penny had a CEO who really was legitimately “woke.” Does anyone know if JC still exists? I think we’ll find that the legitimately woke will eventually fail or convert. I suspect Facebook and Twitter will either be replaced or start lobbying for regulation so they can drop the woke mantle without being cancelled. I know it’s hard to see that trend so early on but check back in ten years. (I’ll probably be safely dead then. So, I’ll just post a “told-you-so” now.)

They closed my local BB&B about a year ago.
   While I can order what I need on-line, I did like walking their aisles and "window shopping."
Neat store.

a conservative boycott can’t have helped a brick & mortar chain that was already teetering ...

Idiots, they should have paid Mike to appear at their stores for book signings to attract thousands of customers. They also should have asked him how they could improve their stores.
