But the company struggled to make the transition to online shopping and fend off larger chains such as Walmart and Target. Many shoppers switched to those competitors as the novelty of Bed Bath & Beyond's coupons faded.

The company was also hit hard during the pandemic, closing stores temporarily during 2020 while rivals remained open. The company lost 17% of its sales in 2020 and 14% in 2021.

Didn’t they stop selling My Pillow because of the CEO’s comments? Did Trump supporters boycott?

What next? Sears closes? KMart? Is this 2008? ;)

So, SO glad I no longer have a multi-million dollar business to manage! Surviving during the ‘0bama Reign of Error’ was hard enough!

This chart describes the rise and fall of the BB&B executive Gustavo Arnal... including the "dead cat bounce" at the end.

Don’t forget that one of the things that brought people there was the ability to buy My Pillow. They screwed that up!

When this mess of a government finally falls, one of the first things a new form of government will have to do is ban amazon.com.

We have a few young men who adopted us. They are/were friends of our DNA sons, and over the years, they joke about my wife and I being their adopted parents.

One of those young men has been a sheriff’s deputy in a good size city for 25 years.

We have no B&B stores in our area and had 2 about 12 miles away. This “adopted” son advised us not to shop at one as it was right on a county line with other stores and not really protected.

So we never shopped there, and they closed that store just before Covid due to robberies.

This adopted son warned us to be alert if we went to the other store. We stopped going there and got on their blue sale mailing list. Rumors were/are that it will be closed soon.

Meanwhile we have Amazon to deliver and lately Costco has stepped up to that plate with 2 great options.

#1. Delivery in 2 hours (works great for our monthly grocery order. We order at about 10 am and get delivery by noonish.

#2. Free delivery and often discounts on bulky orders or ones that fit into a mailbox. Their prices often beat Amazon, and we get free delivery in a couple days.

Rats! Per that list, they are not closing the store in Aiken County, SC. That store is lousy and overpriced. The employees have a bad attitude.

Makes sense. Just not getting the traffic especially due to the growth of Amazon.
