Archived Back to school

soooo who else has bts nop pallets already??? I about died when I saw ours!!! It's TOO early!!!

 

[Inigma]

I'm not even sure when that sets!

 

[JimmyTarget]

BTS should set the week of July 5th. So 6 weeks early? Not too strange but it's always a little weird to see the first shipment. Considering school is still in progress!

 

[pellinore]

Last year we had the BTC school stuff out before the local schools were done with the school year.

 

[Ashfromoldsite]

We've had the pallets for two weeks. Yet we hardly have any electronics for next weeks set.

 

[Streetdate]

May your diety of choice have mercy upon our souls*/sales. I had a guest try to pay a coworker once to shop his BTS list for them.

 

[Noiinteam]

Nooooooooooo

 

[xNightStockerx]

BTS is a beast! I hate it!!

 

[dannyy315]

Yeah we had BTS stuff out in May last year. It's almost worse than 4th quarter.

One yr I worked PA during the first wave of BTS mark-downs. That was when we came in at 4am.
Now PA has to come in at 8am & I don't think there's enough payroll to get me to even THINK about helping this yr.
Hours be damned!

 

[dannyy315]

Reshop will be a NIGHTMARE.

Our BTS sets June 21st this year. So damn early... The earliest school in our area is usually 3rd week of August...

 

[redeye58]

When my boys were in grade school, the teachers would send home their BTS supply list on the last day of school.
That gave me the summer to shop when I could find bargains BEFORE the BTS fracas.
Those were the days....

Additionally, idiots trash softlines like it's the damn apocalypse. And they do it every damn year.

Ah yes the softlines mess. Where we have "tax free weekend!!!" where people lose their shit over not having to pay 2.90% to 9.45% (lowest and highest sales taxes in the nation).

Congratu-fucking-lations you saved a tiny amount!!!! GUESS FUCKING WHAT WE HAVE BETTER SALES THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE YEAR.

 

[mrknownothing]

We're not receiving anymore patio furniture. I wouldn't be surprised to see BTS/BTC coming in early.

 

[Ashfromoldsite]

Our patio flat is sold out and full of furniture clearance.

We are a tax free state. But we get to deal with all the idiots from other states coming down/up to take advantage of the no sales tax. And cramming every conceivable thing for BTS/BTC in their vehicle after they already stopped at a couple other places.

"Do you need a new backpack this year?"
"No my old one is fine"
"Too fucking bad it's tax free you're gettin one"

More like "lets fit a futon in the van" which already has bedding sets, a mini fridge and a desk in a box....but hey, just toss it in its light. Morons.

Your people bring vans? Lucky.

"Can this patio set fit in my Prius"

vans, siblings, grandparents....and a partridge in a pear tree.

Or the guy buying a gazebo driving a Jeep Wrangler: "You guys DON'T have twine?!"
Not enough twine to tie down that disaster-in-the-making.

Duct tape.

Hours better go up drastically with BTS. This 20-25 hours per week this is annoying.

Who owns a wrangler without tie downs in the back for this? I've loaded full doors into our LJ.
