Their 20% coupons were a double-edge sword. Left me with the impression they were overpriced, and I never shopped there. Similar with Kohls and their coupon / reward points gimmicks that drive many shoppers away. Other big box stores offer similar goods at lower prices everyday along with various online retailers without all the nonsense.
That is exactly the reason Trader Joe's is so successful. No Membership, no coupon, no BS. Just everyday low prices and best customer service east, west, and on the Mississippi.
Do you not know at lot of companies went out of business because of Amazon. Because we can go online and get it cheaper. Amazon takes a big cut when they sell people stuff on Amazon. Even if they want to get in e-commerce or already is an e-commerce. There no way in keeping up with somebody like Amazon. And now Amazon is price gouging everybody.
@@Emotionalrealms Amazon doesn’t simply exist on its own, the customers are the real system you can blame a company all you want but it’s customers is what keeps any company alive. A company can’t be successful unless it has clients especially very loyal clients.

Yes but those jobs can be replaced. Retail jobs have always been horrible. Now more jobs for online customer service reps & warehouse workers will open up.
Bed, bath, and beyond, and toy r us did not go out of business because they only sell one type of item. They went out of business because they were unreasonably pricy. They did it to themselves.

Bed, Bath, and Beyond was a good store. I think there exists a desire for specialty retail outlets that offer quality products that avoid risk of buying a shoddy product or scams from Amazon.
@@angeryrat Agree, for sure. That's why I'm saying the concept of a specialty store that BBB was trying to be works and has a place in the market but the execution I think is what did them in. That's aside from the typical pressures of online retailers that all brick-and-mortars suffer from
Stores are struggling because the common consumers are BROKE. All the consumers income is going towards rent, leasing, and mortgage. Let’s not forget medical, car insurance, food, and gas. Just everyday living, or the consumers could be homeless now. That’s why more companies will go out of business. Think about it.
I have a friend who pays more than that for top quality towels and 100s of dollars for bed sheets and dinnerware. She’s worked an average job all her life and spends her money on things that make her happy. Everyone else I know spends $300 per month on alcohol. Priorities.
Bed Bath and Beyond before they switched to their own brands was an amazing store. After that they lost my business. The last Manhattan store that’s left to this day used to have a massive variety of products, wall to wall of items, barely enough room to walk. They renovated the entire store, now it’s void of only the few products they shove down your throat.
BB&B started its decline after the 2007-2008 Financial Crisis. Before that event, the first housing bubble had people believing that by renovating and decorating their homes, their homes would go up in value enabling them to borrow more on their home equity lines of credit. After that, people reduced their "investing" on their homes since many had been foreclosed. The pre-Financial Crisis BB&B was a temple of domestic awesomeness. I still remember the distinctive smell that greeted me when I entered that store and it was stocked wall to wall with interesting home products, kind of like the old Toys R Us. Now their stores are like the last days of Service Merchandise. Slightly barren with an aura of sadness.
They had been doing not so well for several 10+ years and tried hard to lure buyers. 2019 is when they reported net operating loss in several millions. Since then, the panic accelerated with wild turnaround efforts but obviously to no avail. Their prices were always exorbitant, cutting down middle class market
Agree, as a consumer I normally go to the store that carries most of the items that I am looking for, as opposed to the store that has very few selection of items.
@@ganje3869 I didn't know they don't pay taxes! Yet they keep getting sued for their business practices. Personally I think the internet is an unstable market place because of all the hacking
There are no Walmart or Target stores here so it was nice to have BB&B as pretty much the only store that sells bedding in store as well as shower items and cookware. The alternative is Fred Meyer but their selection is pretty small.
i use to work and bed bath & beyond it was such a toxic environment and managers always took advantage of employees at times especially on there days off at least for my location
I read the news that Bed, Bath, and Beyond has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, meaning that they are restructuring. Liquidation and closing all stores is Chapter 7.
I’m gonna have to find somewhere else to buy my pillows. Bed Bath and Beyond pillows are very expensive, but they don’t go flat on you for many, many months. A lot of places advertise their pillows as being firm, but they’re not. Bed Bath and Beyond truly sells firm pillows that don’t go flat in 2 seconds. Really FAT pillows. Those flat pillows that other places have sometimes give me headaches by the time I wake up. I might buy a handful of pillows from Bed Bath before they close, enough to last me for two years. I love their fluffy, firm pillows.
This is sad because this was a great store when I lived in San Diego I went there all the time and when I was married in the 80s it was around and it was just starting. It was a fledgling store. We went in there when I was married probably in 1985 so it’s been around about that long!!! ALMOST 40 years!!!!!
well you are the exemption . Malls in Asia are heavily successful mainly because what you need is practically there. it is people like you that companies should avoid catering to
Maybe Kohls? They play similar games with coupons and all that. Many people don't have time for that nonsense and shop elsewhere. Amazed BBB lasted as long as they did.
It’s been overpriced for a long time now. Plus with online shopping why would I waste gas going there, stand in line, and pay for overpriced goods. These retailers need to start keeping up with the trends. Most of these stores are owned by a parent company. The parent company needs to create a website with all the products from their subsidiaries to rival Amazon. Even Walmart is closing stores left and right. With technology rapidly increasing, these retailers need to have ONE or TWO major stores in every city. You go in there to physically see the items, you check out from a kiosk or your phone and it’s shipped to you from the warehouse or you purchase in person from whatever limited stock they have. No longer needed dozens of employees in a store and thousands of things in stock not getting bought and shelling out hundreds of thousands to build these brick and mortar locations. Horrible retail jobs can now be replaced with work from home customer service jobs or warehouse jobs.
It turns out that waking up and immediately alienating half of your customer base is not the best business decision. This comes at a time when brick-and-mortar stores are struggling to stay afloat due to the pandemic, and an unprecedented rise in online shopping.
I think we're in the wild now. Two major US Car Dealers just went under in a matter of weeks. Carmax is struggling mightily as well right now. Interest rates and inflation are sticking it to them and tying customers hands from being able to purchase.
no help....brick and mortar works by buying items and selling it to customer to get profit. online retailer doesnt have goods to buy, just commision and they dont have any problem losing money every year.
Not surprised. It's competing against Amazon, Wayfair, etc where people are buying stuff online nowadays. Not sure if it'll be able to get back up on its feet.
You have a choice. Take the time such as a half an hour to get in your car and drive to a store to buy something. OR you can spend 3 minutes to buy something off the internet that will cost clearly LESS money then if you drove to the store to buy it. What's the temptation level to buy something off the internet instead of driving to a store when that's how it is??? Sears Good bye. Bed Bath and Beyond Good bye. It's kind of sad but those are the times we are living in.
Because half the time when you order soemthing, somethings wrong with it/not what you thought it would be and you have to send it back. You also have to rely on what other people think is a good product or not instead of seeing it for yourself right in front of you
Amazon won't let me exchange wrong size pants and swimsuit, so I only buy non size , non fitted stuffs from Amazon. Many of the sizes are based off China, typically junior size here.
@@EtsySpellcaster-fy3sl Yea but even with physical retail stores … how long were the return and exchange lines and how chaotic was it? Now with Amazon you can return an item at Whole Foods and get an instant refund or literally order a driver to pick up your package and ship it for you. I’d rather do any of the two a dozen times till I find the right product from an online retailer than EVER wait in a return & exchange counter at a major brick and mortar retailer again.
Deep Discounts are not on the way. The close out company raises all prices to regular retail. Then they start out with a 10 percent off all store discount and slowly go from there. Yet ignorant customers (who could have saved more when it was open) will flock in there and fill up their carts. I see it happen every time.
Furniture as an expenditure is out of the picture for the foreseeable future. Lots of decent stuff roadside in front of homes on garbage day. Good move for them.
Bed Bath and Beyond has been expensive for years now. I remember they use to have some good brands there, but now? Not so much. Their qulity sucked and they had a lot of problems and they were overpriced. The last time I went in in compared Items and found items at other stores for $10 to even $20 cheaper. What need's to happen is stores start cutting their prices and quit focusing on heavy profit margens. That's all it is now. CEO's today do not seem to have any knowledge on how to run a business or just dont care, and this isnt really online shoppings problem.
Who even shops there? Everything in those stores is extremely overpriced. I went in for a salad spinner and a garlic press. My total was 70$ not counting taxes. I went to local grocery store, and their kitchen gadgets section had same exact brands for half the price.
as a 27 year old i wouldnt be caught dead at BB&B for ANYTHING other than their clearance section. Over priced is an understatement.
even went in during the "out of business sale" and even then stuff was still overpriced for me!

Deep Discounts are not on the way. The close out company raises all prices to regular retail. Then they start out with a 10 percent off all store discount and slowly go from there. Yet ignorant customers (who could have saved more when it was open) will flock in there and fill up their carts. I see it happen every time.
Close them! I’m sure the ones at the top still made their money!
I know of a Shark with less bargaining power 😂
Furniture as an expenditure is out of the picture for the foreseeable future. Lots of decent stuff roadside in front of homes on garbage day. Good move for them.
Two words : my pillow ….
Bed Bath and Beyond has been expensive for years now. I remember they use to have some good brands there, but now? Not so much. Their qulity sucked and they had a lot of problems and they were overpriced. The last time I went in in compared Items and found items at other stores for $10 to even $20 cheaper. What need's to happen is stores start cutting their prices and quit focusing on heavy profit margens. That's all it is now. CEO's today do not seem to have any knowledge on how to run a business or just dont care, and this isnt really online shoppings problem.
send money to Ukraine 😅😅😅😅
Wow. Sad. What’s left?
I never went to Bed Bath & Beyond it looked nice but I knew that I could get the same stuff at Walmart And buy food at the same time
They should go in the beyond beyond section and use the remote to go in past
Tuesday Morning for a decade instead of BBB. It's towels and bath mats and sheets? Why pay top dollar for stuff like that?
Thread count on bedsheets matters, it last longer and it doesn't produce tiny " balls" on the surface after few washes
they went put of business simply because of poor management at top like toys r us and circuit . top management thought they knew it all
This is true. Then their CFO jumped off his balcony in NY and killed himself when the stock, already down 65 percent, dropped another 20 percent.
What a surprise, they need to close , they where most expensive store , they never had any customers at all always empty 🤔
Mine used to be busy. Then they took out My Pillow and got boycotted from there. Live in a very conservative area. People here have money.
Good riddance
*Fun Fact: Employees really do get that excited about new bathmats and other items.*
That sucks , I really loved this store 😢
Self inflicted. Poor leadership living in luxury high rise mansions in NYC. Detached from reality.
brick and mortor is dead with the high gas, rent, mortgages, home repairs, etc. Everyones broke.
After the CEO of a company kills himself, it's a bit difficult for a business to recover. But yup... money is what matters most, so... enjoy! 💪😎✌️
its more like "consumers are so broke, many are only buying the dire essentials" electronics,toys are not considered essential.
Who even shops there? Everything in those stores is extremely overpriced. I went in for a salad spinner and a garlic press. My total was 70$ not counting taxes. I went to local grocery store, and their kitchen gadgets section had same exact brands for half the price.
