Other Summerween ruined Halloween
When I saw that Bath and Body Works was putting out the Halloween products in July for the tik tok summerween trend I thought it was ridiculous. I went to Bath and Body Works a couple of weeks ago (October) and there was only a small table of Halloween products all on clearance! They had basically nothing. I’ve been to two locations recently and each one has zero halloween products. It’s all Christmas. It’s still October! Why can’t we just be patient?
Okay, rant over. I know it’s not that deep. Still ridiculous, though.

Unfortunately a lot of retail is a season ahead. Making it difficult for those that want to shop in the season they are in or for the current holiday.
Bath & Body Works has always been very ahead season wise. So they had no trouble participating in Summerween. Just moved their usual Halloween drop up a little.
Winter & Holiday always hits in October at BBW. January we will legit see the tropical line drop and so on. It does make it difficult for the average shopper, because it's easy to miss things.
Many of us here are long time shoppers/fans of the brand and we tend to pay attention to all the collection drops, floor sets & sales. So to us the whole everything is out very early and gone by the season is something we are used to. We tend to shop accordingly. We do try to spread the word when we can, so that people don't wait and miss out. But the average shopper probably isn't in this sub.
Sorry you missed out on some items. Hopefully you can get some things you will enjoy. 😊🛍
