I would like to know is it true that if you are an employee at a Bath and Body Works location that you are NOT ALLOWED to shop at ANY Bath and Body Works ANYWHERE ELSE BESIDES AT THE LOCATION WHERE YOU WORK????? A shift leader at another Bath and Body Works location threatened me my job because I was shopping at a different BBW store than from the one I work at. Where I work is in another city that I don't live in and I would prefer to shop at the one closer to my home. I had no idea that I could be FIRED for doing so! I think it is completely ABSURD! I could not believe it! I did not find that information anywhere in the policy handbook and if that was so I wish could have been warned. It does not make sense! What if I was out of state and needed to make a purchase at a BBW? Should I risk my job and buy what I need or should I travel hours to BBW where I work just to make a purchase? Someone please clear this up for me!

not to my knowledge, they cant make you only shop at that one, its a corp. not a privately owned shop. i would challenge that, cause i know in the store i work in in boston we are allowed to shop at anyone and use our discounts at any of them
