No. No. That’s not true. That’s impossible!
Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
Where is this? (Sorry, I’m an European, on the edge of the map)
Bed Bath and beyond, a piece of shit home-goods store
A soon to be extinct retailer called Bed Bath And Beyond. Watch the Adam Sandler movie ‘Click’ for a full rundown of the brand.
My understanding was that overstock.com bought them for their brand only, and then changed their own name to Bed Bath & Beyond. So the old BB&B is now extinct, and overstock.com is now masquerading as BB&B.
If you go to overstock.com or o.co, both actually redirect to Bed Bath & Beyond now (which is presumably just a re-skinned version of the old overstock.com?)
We live on a ball of mud so the edge of the map is the beginning of the map.
Edge of the map, you say? Svalbard?
At first glance I thought these were towels on some rooftop and now I have the hardest time unseeing that
Spanish towel roof.
I didn’t expect the Spanish towel roof.
Well there goes my dream of quitting my job and living in a towel fort at Bed Bath and Beyond
Sorry, but your dream also died when they closed all of their stores earlier this year.
Hey! No spoiler tag!? Some of us are still getting caught up on the last two seasons of reality
Like the fake Marshall amp stacks at concerts.
Or the fake lifeboats on cruise ships.
Hey wait a minute
Wait till you hear about the plastic and play-dough “food” they use in advertisements and the glamour shots on a restaurant menu or order board.
Watching a video that showed how they do cheese for pizza makes seeing those commercials absolutely hilarious to me knowing its basically nothing but glue.
That’s why you never go beyond

It’s probably just marketing, the super high stack is visible from far away and advertisers many available colors. If one catches your eye, you then have to walk through a bunch of other aisles to actually get to the towels. It’s like putting the milk at the back of the grocery store.

I could see this be a way to show how the towels look like when neatly stacked. And to show what belongs into that shelf if it were empty.
It’s real? Bro
Instead they just have hundreds divided by 5.
They have twenties of them
Edit: Scores, they have scores of them
why yes I’d like to buy all of your towels
…sir, um.
now I’d like to sue you for fraud!
I worked at K-Mart in the towels section when Martha Stewart started her line. Trust me when I say there were hundreds, there were. I was in a very busy store at Green Acres mall in NY Queens and people loved to mess up my wonderfully folded towels.
I’m 40 and I just found out right now!
I prefer it tbh, less waste this way.
How is it less waste?
Takes more resources to produce all those extra towels that won’t be sold than the foam stand with one cleverly manipulated towel.

I agree, but see my reply to FluorideMind above on how this is the lesser evil of what they’re gonna do anyway
The assumption is the towels would be there to be sold. That seems less wasteful then having fake towels to advertise real ones.
Yeah, this is the top shelf ABOVE the ones they’re selling. Turns out that an appearance of overabundance of an item makes people more likely to buy stuff and this is making that appearance in a less wasteful way than actually making dozens if not hundreds more towels than they could ever sell.
Real towels would certainly flatten over time and look really unappealing anyway. But it’s a good reality check for sure!
