Bed Bath & Beyond is another woke company. Their marketing managers must have been having a hangover when the professor told the class not to anger half of their customers.

Maybe just stop drinking beer & look at some of the “Personal” whisky brands Country stars are putting out

winding down their entire operation and closing all of their stores sounds a lot more like Chapter 7 than Chapter 11 ...

“killed by amazon imo.”

totally ... last couple of times i tried to shop BB&B, i gave up because the color and style selection was extremely limited (towels colors were muted and putrid) and prices were ridiculous ... plus on amazon, reviews can help as long as one can sift through the BS ...

“Our stores will stay open until we close them.” That is profound.

I thought it was something written by MAD or the Babylon Bee! 🤓

For whatever reason they marketed it as the lastest and greatest but it fell very short of that in my view.

We did maintenance work on their stores and warehouses - had to cut them off since we were not getting paid - They still owe us $$$$

This company had a great selection of products, but a lunatic coupon policy. Not only were the coupons overgenerous, but they took multiple coupons for a single cartful of items, honored long-expired coupons, and distributed coupons not only by direct mail to former customers and also to prospective customers, but also in popular home enhancement magazines. What company can survive that level of drain on profit margins?

After using coupons to help establish a new location’s customer base, coupons should have then become limited-time seasonal treats, a campaign against a competitor opening a store nearby, or a points reward for frequent customers.

NPR did an entire 5 minute segment this morning without mentioning My Pillow one time. Not even a reference to Woke brand choices.

I stopped going to BB&B when they pulled the My Pillow products.

Ironically, I had never up to that time purchased anything from Mike Lindell's company. I went in there for other things.

Since, I've purchased a decent amount of My Pillow product through the website.
