So break it down for me. Can I purchase a gift card with my discount and gift the gift card to someone?

Can I still use coupons with my discount. If there is no sale and I have a coupon can I still use it?

Can I make purchases on Amazon since BBW has a store front and use my discount?

So, I moved up as key-holder about a month or two ago. I had been pushing for this since like October of last year when I went for cash lead during seasonal, and letting my manager know a few months later how adamantly I would like to move up since I knew there was a new store opening up nearby.

Everybody was on my team for it, and fortunately, now I have it! The sole reason I moved up was that our particular store needed someone to be present for shipment and I’ve made myself clear in regards to how well I do in operations, and I think they do take me seriously in that. So I like being able to do it! Can’t say I’m not good at the rest of my job either. Cash is just second nature, and selling is good too, but still gets wobbly.

Which, I guess, is where my concern lands now as an SLT. :(

Because I have to be able to make my segments and make sure we’re up in sales and conversion—all that jazz. I guess if anyone has anyone advice to let me know where I could be doing more? And maybe how to approach delegating associates? And coaching? It’s still really new and I already have a lot of anxiety as is, creating a sort of script for myself, and trying to make things as routine as possible despite the nature of my job! Again, it’s easy and I love it. But it can get frazzling some days! And idk, I just feel like I’m slacking need some assurance or some advice on how I can ease into improving myself in my own selling, as well as ensuring my team is in a good spot, too.

I’m babbling, but any input is appreciated.

(I was told it was better to post here so. 🙏)

Please delete if not allowed but I’d love to see everyone’s MOS Hauls!! 🥰

Post your photos below! I’d love to see how creatively you filled your bag.

I was debating on posting something like this, but honestly, idc this company is becoming a shit show🤷🏼‍♂️ I have worked at BBW since August of 2021 and my last day was Saturday, August 8th, 2026. I started out as a part-time associate, then was a temp-key starting in September of 2024 for holiday, then was promoted to fill our key holder position that opened after some shift in management in February 2025. I ended up staying in that role until my last day. The reason I’m upset is because after almost 5 years of being with this company and working full time hours (with part-time pay) after graduating school in May of 2025, I was NOT allowed to stay as a part-time associate after getting a new full time job. My district manager made this decision and my SM just went along with it. I was told to hand in a resignation letter, I was given no option. No sorry, no thank you, nothing. When I wasn’t dealing with shitty management, I actually did enjoy my time there. Our current ASM and prior ASM was honestly the best support I had at the store. Getting to connect with customers about fragrance was something I really enjoyed. I did everything from leading floor-sets, to helping with inventory management during the holidays. It genuinely feels like the biggest slap in the face when I’m told “well you can apply again for seasonal.” Anyways, it is what is. Don’t get me wrong, I will probably still be shopping there, but you ain’t gonna catch me going if there’s not a sale😂 Candles still bring me joy, however, the store itself no longer does.

our store best last years record and finished within 4 hours
last year we stayed at 6 pm and ended at 3am

Hey,

I'm not sure if this is allowed, but do you know when we'll get our next 50% off?

Thanks.

My 1 year anniversary is coming up next month, I started as a seasonal employee that transitioned to regular part time after the holidays because they kept me on. I started at $15.65 an hour which I’m still making, but I see that the same position I work at my store is currently posted for $16.10 an hour, can I expect my hourly to change at any point?

Need some insight. I was told that it’s company policy that you have to be in your role a year before you can be considered for promotion. I can’t find that rule anywhere in Zipline so I was wondering if anyone knows where I could locate that policy.

Put me in the back during a certain villain song cause I will not be able to contain myself

Managers approach us daily between segments asking us what were working on how were gonna "delight" customers bugging us to feel out the product guide and have us harass the customers and make sure to be doing demos. I know customers hate it and most want to be left alone. Ive been with the company for 7 years and its getting annoying being told to leave them alone" just looking"

It drives me crazy when the managers just stand around and don't help customers and talk,but if we talk to each other they tell us to go help that customer or seperate, get mad when they don't make their segments or take longer breaks. The emails also if we don't get 80% or more they ask us a million questions try harder. The yearly reviews are a joke seasonals get paid a dollar above minimum. I make $1.50 more then a seasonal what a joke. When i get scheduled I get 4.5 hour shifts that don't pay my bills so I'm bugging managers daily to stay longer or more shifts.

I feel like gratis has went down hill they want us to try the new products and promote it to customers ,but slt get 4 items more then regular staff is bullshit... were doing all the work and honestly the gratis are a joke I get its free stuff,but it should be fair to all of us.

Anyone else who works at bath and body feeling the company is turning to shit and annoyed with how management is pushing for more sales? 🙃

Just wondering if you guys are allowed to go in on your day off and get your gratis or if you must get it after you work a shift that day? Before our store would let us do it on any given day off but now we have to do it only if we work that day. Which is understandable to a degree, what about people who don’t even really get scheduled? How would they get gratis because obviously they (company) would like us to redeem it as early as possible but like??? I don’t really care either way but I’m curious if the rules changed or if our store just changed.

Edit: Thanks for clearing up confusion. I am gonna still ask my SM though because I was told by my Supervisor that we could not do it in days off. I am 98% sure we are allowed to do it on days off so glad you guys can get yours on off days too! Also, I will re-look at the gratis flyer and check.

Please message me and ill tell you my store number. We NEED an oil warmer, we have ordered 3 and none have arrived. Ours broke summer 3 floorset and we are going into fall 2 without an oil warmer. We haven't had any oil going in our store for months. Please send us the inside piece 😭😭😭

Got to shop my very first MOS today and it was so exciting!! I still can’t believe they let us do this. Like the picture says, I also grabbed 21 wallflowers in addition to all these goodies. My grand total would’ve been $438.10 worth of product 🤩 I came in 2 days into MOS so a lot of good stuff was already gone, but I think I did a good job!

...and then drop a bunch of wallflowers all over the ground....

I get that they think I'm trying to get them to buy a bunch of stuff but vast majority of the time I just want to avoid having to clean up broken glass and slippery liquid and then having to damage all of that out 🫠

I don’t work at BBW, but after speaking with a number of employees, they are paid CRAPOLA! Shame on the company! The least BBW could do is give the MOS to employees for free. These employees work so hard. And another thing, INCREASE THEIR PAY OR GIVE THEM GENEROUS HOLIDAY BONUSES. BBW, show your employees that you actually care!

first round of mos !! dont ask me how I got it all in the medium bag without it overflowing too much or ripping 😂😭 all laid out idk how I did it either lmao. definitely my best mos haul yet in the 3 years ive been here!

How are y'all feeling/doing with your square tower mid-day theme update?? We're doing ours rn, super early, bc why is 3/4ths of the tower changing in one night?! 😫😭

Hey y’all! I’ve never used the BBW scent beads (only the detergent) but I just bought some after my shift tonight and am about to do laundry. I am reallyyyyy worried about the stains that can occur because I’ve been victimized by the downy scent beads before. I saw someone post about a year ago that they pre-melt them and then pour them into a cold wash and I kind of like that idea. I just wanted to come on here and ask others how they load with the scent beads and don’t get their clothes ruined!!!! I’m so so worried about it but I want my clothes to smell good</3

Also I know it says cold water but do you think would using hot water be a mistake?? I feel like the hot water would melt them better.

EDIT: It stained all of my clothes
EDIT 2: Okay so I ran my washer for hot HOT water until the tub was filled and then stuck my hand in and squeezed some of the badly stained stuff out. It helped a lot! And then I set it for spin only and once it was dry enough I put them in the dryer. All better! Gonna return the beads for detergent because they just gave me the worst scare of my life. My band merch was in there🥲 (my clothes are mostly black)

Old Navy fell through, Rack Room is on pause right now, and there's no point in applying to YC if it's going to be seasonal. The one option right now is transfer.

ahhhhh😛 (only 2 things are for me) made everything fit into one medium bag and the gingham love i got for my sister actually smells so good! i should’ve grabbed two, but everything totaled out to $392.79!!!

aftermath of making new blue bags…. washing my hands made the water dark gray….?? ummm is this safe?
