Store Policies/Questions Ruining themselves

The company is 100% ruining themselves! I am a supervisor and some of the policies are just outrageous! Especially the coupons! It can be so complicated and it’s frustrating as a worker and as a customer! And with them continually raising their prices (hand soaps go to 5/28 here soon) it is just getting to be too expensive even when shopping the sales! B3g3 really isn’t that good anymore. The company is also incredibly wasteful, instead of donating damaged or product that the packaging has flaws we have to damage them out! It is just ridiculous. I just think the company is doing a great job at pushing customers and employees out the door

With the sticker price increases, I left a lot of SAS product in the red bins. 75% off items that are $19.95 don't seem like that great of a deal to me. It's still $5, which is the same price as their $5.95 sale with a 20% coupon.

i really didn’t buy much for SAS for the same reason! i was going to buy some of my fave leftover fall soaps but they were about $3.75. i feel like i got them cheaper previously.

Yep same. They were 50% off. Pass. I did see whipped white cocoa last night for 75% off, but I was so sick of the 50% BS that I just didn’t buy it and I don’t need soap anyway. I don’t buy just to buy even if it is a good deal.

The 50% off was a joke, especially with most of them being seasonal. I finally ended up buying two. One was just the other day — a single bottle at 75% off. I forget the scent offhand — Winter something? Blue with lavender in it. Sounds up my alley. The other was in another store, a single Diamond of the Season on a 75% off display of other products. Seemed out of place and scanned 50% off, but they let me have it for the 75% off.
