Re: Bed Bath & Beyond Returning

I am not a fan of the store within a store. For example, the Sephora store in the Kohl's stores by me are kind of gross. I prefer to just go to the actual Sephora store.

One Target has an Ulta section and I shopped there when it first opened, but not anymore. They have it roped off so you enter and exit in same spot. Not sure why. Theft issue?

I am curious what types of products will be brought into The Container Store.

In its recent earnings report Container Store indicated that if this partnership with BBB fails to materialize (BBB would make a $40 million equity investment) a bankruptcy filing is a possible alternative. 

 

Container revenue fell about 11% during the most recent quarter.   It has only about 100 locations,  put expansion plans on hold and closed several large locations recently due to higher rents.

 

Retailing is difficult all over.

@beach-mom I also miss Pier One!  They had so many nice things for gifts and the home.  I loved their holiday pillows, candles and all kinds of interesting odds & ends!

 

It was at my local shopping center and has now become a Capital Grill restaurant.

I was a fan of Pier 1. No Container Stores near me, but I noticed Hobby Lobby has more linens.

@going to Carolina   I did too !!!   Pier One was one of my favorite places to shop.  My home is filled with beautiful items I purchased there.   I'm just thankful I have the things I do, but I sure do miss it.  😔

I noticed a Pier One on line but it doesn't seem the same to me.

Our Ulta in Target does the same thing. I think the same thing, to discourage shoplifters.
