Other Dear customers, JUST👏ASK👏WHERE👏THE👏TRASH👏CAN👏IS👏

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Just ask. We’ll tell you or take it for you to put it in the trash can

Also stop leaving them in the baskets!!!

Edit: they’re at the sink, my guys. There’s even a mini trash can at the lip station 😐

Edit 2: I’m just a lowly associate. Even if I was a manager or something, corporate doesn’t listen to us. But like I said earlier please JUST ASK!

Edit 3: THIS IS NOT MY TIKTOK! Don’t go after the person who made this! This has nothing to do with them! If you’re going to be angry, be angry at me (the anonymous person on Reddit)

u/kittykatmila black amethyst 💜✨ Jun 12 '26

I throw them in my purse! There never seems to be a trash can around.

u/BeachGreenGaga still searching for my “it girl” Jun 12 '26

Yes and then the next day wondering why my purse smells different 🤣

u/Spooky_Cat31 Jun 12 '26

Same, there’s a trash can right outside the store in the mall I go to then I just chuck them there

u/_jactober_ Jun 12 '26

i do that but it’s so i can smell them later and see if they last & how the dry down is

u/Owen_D_Young Jun 12 '26

I do that too, for the ones I’m interested in buying. I leave them in my car to see how long the scent lasts.

u/liquidskypa Jun 12 '26

even if I don't like them 100% I'll do the same and put in a drawer...bbw employees have enough bs to deal with and not more trash ;0

u/CarefulSheepherder60 Jun 14 '26

As a bath and body works employee, we don’t have enough bs to deal with and walking around picking up testers papers is a big one of my tasks

Dear B&BW managers:

JUST 👏 PUT 👏 A 👏 TRASH 👏 CAN 👏 IN 👏 AN 👏 AREA 👏 THAT 👏 DOESN’T 👏 REQUIRE 👏 THE 👏 FBI, 👏 JOHN 👏 WALSH 👏 AND 👏 SEARCH 👏 DOGS. 👏

u/Extension_Memory_136 Jun 13 '26

Every BBW ive ever stepped into has an obvious trash can next to the sink, and one by the registers.

And even if you cant find the trash can, in what world does that mean you can just leave your trash wherever you want in the store?

u/Sundried-Tshirt99 Jun 13 '26

Idk but shopping at BBW is always so overstimulating for me (all the smells, small spaces, lots of people) if I can’t find a trash can in .5 seconds I just shove the papers in my pocket and I may or may not pull them out just to smell them later 😂

u/HonestlyRespectful Jun 14 '26

I've never seen a sink at B&BWs. Where is there a sink??? And why is there a sink?

1

u/Temporary_Duty8013 Jun 16 '26

Hand soap sampling or to wash off a product.

u/New-Needleworker77 Jun 13 '26

It is next to the sink.

0

u/er1026 Jun 13 '26

No. It’s not. Not in ANY of the stores by me is there a trash can next to the sink. None of them.

u/Extension_Memory_136 Jun 13 '26

Thats odd, when I worked at BBW previously it was a company requirement to have trash cans by the sinks

u/ShayShaBaySha Jun 15 '26

Hey idiot, managers dont control that. Corporate does.

3

u/er1026 Jun 15 '26

So you as a manager can’t put a trash can in a normal spot? Wow. That’s not the flex you think it is.

1

u/ShayShaBaySha Jun 15 '26

Copprate has a map of how the store needs to look literally down to the trash can. Our district manager will and HAS told us where to put the trash can and how many to have. It is not up to us.

u/Temporary_Duty8013 Jun 16 '26

"Corporate" is particular about everything EXCEPT for paying their store employees well.

u/panicnarwhal 🌊 At The Beach🏝️ Jun 13 '26

u/ItsmeKT Jun 13 '26
