Title: Bed Bath And Beyond Bankruptcy
Post by: roadman65 on August 07, 2023, 05:06:09 PM
I seen a liquidation ad on line to rid the warehouses of merchandise. Has another big box bit the dust?

Yeah Bed Bath & Beyond has gone out of business, same with Christmas Tree Shops.

The stores are still being liquidated, but Bed Bath and Beyond lives again as a website formerly known as Overstock.com: https://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/?cid=331264&utm_source=google&utm_medium=pkwcpc&track=psggl&gclid=Cj0KCQjwrMKmBhCJARIsAHuEAPTVCopaxyNYJNV2zneLXGDOv59U5e9k1bIbEGS5AsH0S3lIwrkk8-YaAj0KEALw_wcB

Movie aficionados will remember it as the store where Adam Sandler bought a magical remote in Click.

Too bad.  I like to be able to see things before I buy them.

That's part of the problem with online shopping - people treat B&M stores as Amazon showrooms.
I wonder if online retail would have to address the problem as legacy B&M shrinks.

Yeah that is one of my major concerns with online shopping, especially clothes shopping. I like to be able to try on clothes before I buy them, unless I already know what size will fit. But I'm being forced to buy clothes online more and more since it's harder to find what I want in stores.
