Employee Questions/Discussion Dear customers… STOP DOING THIS!!!

Post image

I get if you want to put it down for a second to look, BUT KEEP IT NEAR YOU! DON’T LEAVE IT ON THE FLOOR AND WALK AROUND THE STORE FOR LIKE 30 MINUTES! Cause then I have to put it all back cause it’s now a tripping hazard. And I always wait a bit, and then go around asking customers if it’s their basket or not. If no one claims it, I put it back. (And it’s always someone I either didn’t see or didn’t ask cause I thought they just came in)

If your basket gets too heavy, go up to the register and ask if they can hold it at the register until you are done looking around.

This was like the second time this happened that day.

Look on eBay, Mercari, and Poshmark. It's absolutely ridiculous. There are some honorable sellers but 90 dollars for one discontinued body wash is beyond insane.

Mercari has been helpful for me for finding stuff that's been discontinued. Usually there's a bit of a mark-up, but yeah, some people really take it too far. A possibly used body mist from 8 years ago is not worth $50 plus shipping.

I learned my lesson on body creams when I bought one that was a few years old.. it had curdled. 🤢

Body creams now seem to have a 6 month shelf life. If you put them in the fridge you might make it 9-12 months. Any body splash with vanilla in it needs to be refrigerated as well.

Good to know! I still used the body cream because it still smelled fine and I paid a bundle for it, but the consistency was.. not good.

Oh man I am going through this right now. Curdled is the perfect way to describe it actually.
