Was reading on AOL News where COB is closing six or seven stores.

Wonder how this will affect their distribution to BBW.

doesnt surprise me at all.it isnt a fav of mine, except for the lip shine and lemon stuff.

3rs party lines having been doing well.

meanwhile lush is slated to open more stores.

Thanks for the info, Jeff. I'm curious now if the one here is closing...Can you post a link to the article?

I haven't been there in a few months myself, so I guess it wouldn't be surprising to see it go.

Editing to say that I found the article, and it looks like my store is safe but I have to wonder for how long. There are some third party brands they sell that I like, so I would be disappointed to see COB go completely.

Marissa,

Glad you were able to find the COB article.

I don't know how to post links on this board!

That's not good
I also noticed that BBW is listing a lot of the Bigelow facecare products (including my favorite holy grail product, the brown sugar crystal face polish - sobs) in the "fond farewells" section. I'm getting so fed up with BBW - everything I ever come to love gets discountinued!

Although the Brown Sugar Face Polish is a fond farewell at BBW, I am sure it will still be available on the COB website itself.

COB might close some stores and pull out some products out of BBW. But I am sure you will always be able to order it direct from COB.

The price is the same on their website.

That's sad to hear.

I'll be fine as long as CO Bigelow keeps the Lemon body wash & haircare products.

Thanks Jeff, that's really great to know.

Anemone,

I saw a whole bunch of the COB Brown Sugar Face Scrubs maked down to 50% off at the SALE.

You might check it out.
