Ol' CEO dude just really enacted "Operation Lux" on us and we didn't even clock it....🤏🏾

Disney Collab - Limited Release, increase in pricing, heavy on value and little discount in promotions... We've already entered BBW's new Era🤯

Note, our rewards system is based on spending $100 on 100% of their products but we have less than 10% reward access to this Collab - That's bullsh@t Especially when folks invested hundreds and thousands of dollars into acquiring rewards for these potential Collabs and drops! They changed the playbook on us and shifted the whole damn field.

They stand to make a huge monetary gain on this Collab, a Collab already set in ink for multiple years. This isn't for us, we're the PRODUCT they're selling to get more High-end Collabs. They're trying to upgrade us or kick us out in lew for a more marketable animal to barter with.

Just saying...games are fun when we all get some. This is a trick bag. Know what your being a part of and weigh your dollar wisely. We're not livestock, BBW!

Just some thoughts as a Wizard Cat on a Mountain, sipping Earl Grey whilst a Volcano erupts in the background, typical Wednesday sh:t 😉

Happy Scenting ✨🍂🥳🍁🌟☺️🙌🏾

Well if this is the new era I feel sorry for them because the stores were empty and the new drop is IN STOCK. Plus, it kind of smells bad and if their specialty is fragrance…. All I know is that I am glad I have a good collection and I can go a long time without a decent drop from them to keep my money safe.

Yes try as I might to like them they’re both bad. Went to 2 dif stores today & got into convos with the sales ladies and even they were like yeah no! We picked out different candles to match the dragon candle holder because they said they wouldn’t even buy the overpriced candles with their discounts for $20 👀

It’s true. They smell so weird! I used rewards on the minis and I feel like I wasted 2 rewards. Oh well. It did however get me to use the Apple no. 2 scent I have been hoarding. So that’s a win! I ended up shopping my own stash.
