What is Controversial?[edit]

How is anything in the controversy section any issue at all? A source should be cited and more explanation given.Rmsuperstar99 (talk) 23:55, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, all the articles have been archived. --Producer (talk) 13:37, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

JPEG Logo?[edit]

The JPEG Christmas Tree Shops logo looks pretty crummy. Is there a GIF or PNG out there somewhere? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.19.180.253 (talk) 22:59, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Acquisition by Bed Bath and Beyond[edit]

In 2003, the company was sold by the Bilzekian family for a sum of 250million dollars. Almost immediately corporate culture changed, resulting in a mass exodus of longtime quality employees. Benefits to associates were significantly reduced and the mix of products changed significantly. Currently the company serves in large part as a clearinghouse for unsold, unpopular Bed Bath and Beyond product. Occasionally identical products can be found in both stores for markedly different prices.

Once the crown jewel of New England retail, a succession of poor decisions made by a revolving door of former Bed Bath and Beyond executives has diminished sales,service, and success at this once proud company. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.34.83.92 (talk) 22:19, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
