Coincidently, my wife and I drive by one of their stores that I didn’t realize was so close to our current home.

I asked her if she knew it was there and she said she refuses to go there because they are 2-3x the price of Amazon, even with all their gimmicky 20% coupons.

I understand how Amazon can best out on product costs, but being 50-75% less seems crazy to me.

BBB is stupid expensive compared to Amazon/online and even other B&M stores like Target, TJ Maxx and the like. A few years back they gave me the run around on returning a broken gifted dish set and refused to do it in-store even though I had all the information. On my way out I told the manager "this is part of why this store won't exist in 5 years." I had to mail back a heavy dish set to return it rather than them taking it in-store.

You can find clearance name brand things there for 50-75% off of MSRP in the returns section. A BBBY is right next to a Target I frequent so I look every couple weeks.

I got a 12" Staub skillet for $80 and a 4qt Le Cruset dutch oven for $100, and a smaller Lodge dutch oven for $40.
