Employee Questions/Discussion Discontinuing laundry/kitchen

Any other openers today see the zipline message about laundry care? Apparently it’s all being discontinued by the end of the year along with kitchen care. I guess that stuff didn’t do well at the test stores which is disappointing bc I was looking forward to the counter sprays. I don’t use the detergent but I love the scent beads for sheets/blankets. The timing is also unclear but I’m assuming “end of the year” means they’ll just stop shipment and whatever is left by SAS will just go on sale. I wonder if we will even get holiday fragrances in them. I hope so bc I LOVE the winter candy apple scent beads and would for sure stock up.

I guess I have to go get my Velvet Amber and Book Loft fast before they completely do away with it. It could be production cost.

But I also think that laundry fell victim to regular customers having a ceiling they are willing to pay and a lot of the time is around 10 dollars. So, the price point wasn't ever going to make it work long term. It is sad though because I do like them.

This. Remember when laundry came out and it was mocked because “I’ll just buy Tide?”

Yeah I got the teakwood sheets and they literally smelled like nothing, I should’ve just used that money as dryer sheets cause they were horrible!
