Bed, Bath & Beyond Facing Supplier Issues – While “Canceled” MyPillow Has An Overstock Sale


In January 2021, Bed, Bath & Beyond dropped MyPillow products from their stores.

Liberals celebrated:

In response, many conservatives boycotted Bed, Bath & Beyond — and bought their bedding from MyPillow.com using promo code TGP directly instead (Gateway Pundit benefits when you use that code).

Now, this: suppliers to Bed, Bath & Beyond are worried Bed, Bath & Beyond won’t pay them back.

Bloomberg reports:

Take Dbest Products Inc., which has been selling its rolling carts to Bed Bath & Beyond for more than a decade. In early September, the company for the first time asked Bed Bath & Beyond to pay upfront for its products. “We requested to alter our payment terms to payment in advance and they said no — politely,” Dbest Products Chief Executive Officer Richard Elden said. He says he previously sold around “six figures” worth of wholesale products to Bed Bath & Beyond annually…

Similarly, Lauren Greenwood, president of kitchen storage and organization company YouCopia, said she recently stopped shipping her merchandise to Bed Bath & Beyond after more than 10 years. “There is considerable financial risk,” Greenwood said. “We’re wishing them well. We’ll see if that means getting back into stores — or waiting from the sidelines to see if they can pull it off.”

The head of a company that had supplied $15 million to $20 million of wholesale merchandise to Bed Bath & Beyond annually in recent years said he had stopped shipping his products to the retailer in August. He asked not to be named to avoid jeopardizing his relationship with the company. The supplier said Bed Bath & Beyond hasn’t agreed to provide him with an additional financial guarantee he requested, called a letter of credit.

Bed, Bath & Beyond could have worked with MyPillow – but canceled them instead.

Big mistake!

Ironically, MyPillow has too many products right now — there’s an “Overstock Sale” at MyPillow:

Unapologetic plug - I use two My Pillows and totally love them!

As a former employee of Bed Bath and Beyond, working in corporate, I can tell you that 150 store closings will have occured by the end of 2022, primarily locations with lower production.

It had a total of 1,478 stores, including Buy Buy Baby and Harmon, at the end of the first quarter in 2020. By the same time this year, it had a total of 955 stores, including 769 Bed Bath & Beyond shops.

After the CFO committed suicide and jumped to his death, their stock plunged.

I would like to add that we were receiving horrific calls even prior to 2020 from professional political agitators, threatening to cancel BB&B and damage their bottom line if we continued to bags by Ivanka Trump, and later, My Pillow.

@4meAndyou I forgot about the Ivanka.line. I never understood that, It's not like they could ever hurt her financially.

Those who don't like the Trump name didn't have to buy her products. I don't understand why they think that they have the right to tell the rest of Americans that they are only allowed to purchase only products made by those who carry their political views. Isn't that communism ?

@missyann It's cancel culture at it's most disgusting, IMO...calling companies and threatening them. However, I must say I boycott certain companies based on their woke policies.
Woke corporations one by one..

missyann · 56-60
Totally agree. If these companies would have said in the very beginning " How about keeping your politics out of our businesses and let consumers decide what products they want to buy without threats ".

Bed Bath & Beyond.is only one instance where " woke " hasn't worked. Unless we are going to have businesses for liberal consumers only and businesses for conservatives consumers only, woke will only further divide and destroy this nation

Bed Bath and Beyond is definitely struggling financially but not because they dropped the My Pillow line

@GJOFJ3

Maybe not, but when a company gives up control to a bunch of knotheads with no skin in the game - they're doomed. Cancel culture sucks.
rfatoday · 61-69, M
@Budwick Exactly. Cancel culture is childish imo.
@GJOFJ3 The point is Bed and Bath shot themselves in the foot

The 2 BB&Bs nearest my house closed a few months ago.

The shape of the economy and supply chain issues that are still tangled up certainly have nothing to do with it🙄

@AbbySvenz slam dunk argument!

Don't like politics in my products regardless from which side.

And you feel that Bed, Bath & Beyond brought politics into their business?
Subsumedpat · 36-40, M
@Budwick No never knew they had any till you mentioned it. Bought a different pillow anyway before all this, kind of look at that my pillow guy as a scam, has too many nothing like this products, my pillow, my slippers.

Yeah, It was an actual news story a couple years ago, so MSM never covered it. But several retail stores dropped the MyPillow line. His bank closed all his accounts. They did all they could do to shut his business down.

The article posted highlites the irony a place like Bed Bath and Beyond is suffering with empty shelves that their remaining suppliers can't fill while MyPillow is doing well.

Glad I could sort that out for you.
And Bezos laughed.
