Stores are opening here and one store my sister and I had been hoping to shop at in person was Bath & Body Works...... 

Got there 30 minutes before opening and there was already a long line....Everyone wore masks which  the store requires and appropriate distancing was enforced and marked....12 people at a time could go in......there were arrows directing people to help with distancing and for register lines.... There was plexiglass to protect the customer and cashier...

The Manager and people that work at this store are always very nice and personable.... (cant say the same for all their stores)....  The Manager went down the line and asked what everyone was shopping for and pointed out where they could find the sales items and location of products in the store.....

Things went smoothly and I bought some candles and the hand soaps.....

My sister asked the Manager about B&BW closing some stores, and this particular store had just expanded right before the pandemic. We were assured that this store definitely would not be closing, it was a top store in sales. She said most of the B&BW store closures will be at the malls ..... fewer people are shopping at malls these days...people go more towards shopping centers like their store or order online....

Our store just re-opened Monday, and I have not yet ventured in, but am thankful for your explanation! I've been very concerned about compliance of the standards, but feel a little more comfortable now.😊

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

Sounds as if everyone was provided a good experience. Lucky you to have the store in your area that knows what it's doing.

How would you know if you like a scent if you can’t smell it. I’m sure you’re not supposed to remove your mask to smell the products. I couldn’t buy a candle or soap without smelling.🤔

Our B&BW in our nearest mall is far busier than the nearest store in a shopping center.  It is also twice as big, having a separate White Barn Candle Shop attached next door.  It is crazy in there at Christmas and at their semi annual sales.

There's a high end mall, I call it the "Gucci Mall" and that B&BW store is huge and has a White Barn attached....this store does well, but other stores at the other malls I see very few people in BB&W.....  Our outdoor mall (non enclosed) has a small B&BW store and there's never anyone in there, and they dont seem to have the stock other stores do....And at the most popular and busiest mall, they keep moving that B&BW store around, but they still cant seem to find a location to attract customers...There's another shopping center with a B&BW Ive seen customers there......So I guess it depends on the store and mall or shopping store location......
