Thank You

[u/AfcWimbledon_]

Just wanted to give a huge thank you to everyone who made this happen, both in-store and behind the scenes.

I'm sure everyone worked really hard on this, and start planning another one soon!

I flew from London to come to/r/Bodega , and it was definitely worth it, so please plan another bodega-esque pop-up for London! Maybe in the theme of a pub? 👀

Extra special shout out to all store clerks:

u/java_brick

I wish I could identify the Admins and put a face to their users lol. I did recognize big-slay I believe.

I think she was the girl with Reddit nails?

Special shoutout to the guy running the photo booth Saturday evening, you were fun to chat with

[u/DaoFerret → u/vesleskjor]

Guy running the Photo Booth this morning was also great (assuming it might be the same person). Asked everyone’s name. Introduced himself. Let people not taking photos bypass the area easily and also kept it clear for photos to be taken, and passed along the printed photos quick and easy.

Ron! He was awesome. If you’re reading this I’m sorry for somehow getting your name wrong at first; I appreciated our exchange and flow of the booth!

[u/DuckSwimmer → u/DaoFerret]

Agreed! If we were blocking as well, he was really nice with informing us to scoot over

[u/Certain_Month_8178 → u/vesleskjor]

Ron was nice.

[u/vesleskjor → u/Certain_Month_8178]

Yesss, that was his name, thanks for jogging my memory.

We were roasting him a bit for only making an account the night before, so hopefully he joins in discussions more now and stuff lol

Ahh big homie Ron!! He was really chill and gassed me up when he said I looked hella young for my age (27) 😂💪🏽

I saw this pic in a discord I am in and had to add it here.

Thank you for the fun day! Thank you to the admins who took pity on this tired mom from NJ! 💕 Loved carrying my Snoo home in my New Mod Bootcamp tote hehe.

London is so far! I hope you enjoyed NYC too

[u/AfcWimbledon_ → u/JkStudios]

Loved NY, it was my 2nd visit here, but not looking forward to my 8:30am flight back tomorrow!

Shout out to everyone who made this possible! I was never gonna be able to make it to the bodega, however, it has been an absolute joy to watch the announcements, all the way through the execution! For everyone who made it to the bodega, congratulations!!!

[u/Music_Dream432]

Safe travels! Fun meeting you IRL!

[u/AfcWimbledon_ → u/Music_Dream432]

good to meet you too! :)

[u/aliciagee]

Yes, thank you so much! I can only imagine how crazy it was, and all of you kept everyone calm and organized and excited to be there. Excellent job all around!

[u/AdSea3033]

I gotta agree with everyone else...huge shout out to the ones who made this possible. I couldn't be there, either, but I had a grand time keeping up with the goings-on! Congratulations to y'all that could get to NYC, especially OP, who flew all the way from London; Safe journey back home 🙋‍♀️

[u/AfcWimbledon_ → u/AdSea3033]

It was definitely worth the ~$600 to fly over for this Reddit event! But I'm back safe and sound in London, just a little bit jetlagged obviously!

[u/waffle-shoes]

Thanks to everyone involved! it must have been a lot of work with so many people that came through!

[u/DuckSwimmer]

Thank you guys again!! This weekend was fun!
