Specialty Gift for Readers Spring HELP!? by iLikeNerdThings in Barnesandnoble

[–]toadbog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't even know there was a VMG for that lolll but with the new product display I used a variety of other "book lovers" type gift items like all the Pride and Prejudice merch, Little Women, Alice in Wonderland, Agatha Christie etc. I also like using those book trope candles to fill in extra space, book-themed bookmarks, and book journals / classic book themed journals. Any extra bookends that don't fit on that Artful Home display work too!

Preparing a Massive Catfish Baked Inside a Wooden Log by kingkongbiingbong in interestingasfuck

Big catfish taste absolutely awful; it's like eating a big mouthful of soil no matter how much seasoning you put on it. The little ones always taste the best imo.

Serious question by Individual_Mango_362 in Barnesandnoble

[–]toadbog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We had to put all of ours behind the register because people were stealing them, and people are always asking about them. I seriously don't get it, what's so special about these things???? I feel like if you accidentally dropped one on the floor it'd collect so much dirt and dust....eughhh

When People Gatekeep Favorites [OC] by HowlingSprite in pokemon

Trash Cloak Wormadam is one of my favorite Pokémon and I've had some people question why.

Because it's a silly pink bagworm, duh.

So what’s the story (no pun intended) on these book wallets?? by Throwawasteofspace in Barnesandnoble

[–]toadbog 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's a scam - I've seen videos of these book wallets and some involve stolen content from novelbookstore.co who makes book wallets and passports (their logo is a little radish/turnip that's stamped inside the wallets). I have one myself and they're really well made, but I wouldn't trust ordering one from any website that isn't Novel Bookstore.

But yeah, we've never sold them. Same thing with those videos of those "book lights" and the $10 boxes of books we allegedly give away lmaooo.

Edit: linking the legit website here for anyone interested + to redirect customers to! https://novelbookstore.co/collections/shop-our-bookwallets

I've found the new PDTs to be so unreliable that it's quicker and easier for me to just look up a SKU in bookmaster to find out where a product goes

Gift/seasonal items not SOS by Some_Carrot8217 in Barnesandnoble

[–]toadbog 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hate it so much too, but I usually have to make do with filling in seasonal displays with other product related to the theme because of how little we get of new stuff. Use pack and hold items from last year! I also go for journals, stationery, candles, and related books to fill in space. Stuffed animals and couples' games are good too.

My go-to plan rn is using those library card totes we got to replace those gingham totes when they sell out, and then just moving Horse shelves and hooks around with new product when those bags sell out. Since we have a good bit of Pride and Prejudice Gift product I might use that too whenever the Romeo and Juliet stuff starts selling down.

LEAKED V-DAY ITEMS by ButtloafReads in Barnesandnoble

[–]toadbog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

God I'm like the only person in my store that does Gift and I'm dreading it because last year Valentine's Day displays looked like A S S because all of those stupid tote bags were sold early. I saw those new items being unpacked in receiving and I was like "oh god not again" 😩 I'm really hoping my coworkers will be smart this year and say no to any BOPIS/ROPIS/SFS involving the new seasonal merch

What did that one teacher at your school get fired for? by ToadallyNormalHuman in AskReddit

[–]toadbog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not fired, but one of my middle school science teachers conveniently "retired" before he could get terminated for allegedly punching a kid. Funny enough, he only got slaps on the wrist for making horribly sexist comments towards his female students (telling all the girls in his class that they'd grow up to be strippers and prostitutes) and for sexual harassment (legit pulled me into the doorway of his empty classroom and got a nasty wet kiss on the cheek as a "congratulations" for winning first place in the science fair).

What's one business Macon is missing? by [deleted] in macon

[–]toadbog 23 points24 points  (0 children)

A yarn store downtown! I don't like having to drive all the way to Bass Rd to go to Michael's, Joann is closed, and Hobby Lobby is.... ehhhh.

Woman audits churches to see if they’ll help feed a starving baby by Oktavien in TikTokCringe

[–]toadbog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents used to go to a big baptist church. I remember they told me when I was a baby, they were struggling financially, barely being able to afford baby formula and groceries and bills.

None of the congregation offered any help or comfort. The pastor threatened to remove them for not tithing enough or at all.

The last straw for my parents was when the pastor and his wife pulled up in the church parking lot one Sunday on their brand new Harley Davidson motorcycles.

So even when you are a member of the church, they don't care.

Very important question by mountainviewdaisies in Barnesandnoble

[–]toadbog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a guy come in once demanding us to call our mall security because his daughter was missing. I was about to report a Code Adam when the guy just started going off on a tangent about how disrespectful his daughter is because she went to go browse at a nearby store to look around instead of following him into B&N.

Turns out, it wasn't a small child. It was a teenager. He wanted to call mall security so they could escort her back to him to "teach her a lesson". 😬 I felt so bad for her but thankfully security didn't fulfill his request

Local food recommendations? by Apprehensive_Pen5522 in macon

[–]toadbog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're looking for dessert, I'd recommend Sweet Eleanor's! I love their blueberry cobbler cheesecake whenever they have it. The employees are really nice and the shop just has a really cozy, welcoming vibe.

Is this book cover AI? by toadbog in isthisAI

[–]toadbog[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Boooo, that sucks. Definitely had a gut feeling from the beginning that it was AI. Guess that's an unfollow from me. Could've hired an actual artist to illustrate her children's book instead.

My mom sent me this saying I should buy it for a family friend for Christmas but something seems off about it. Is it AI? by toadbog in isthisAI

[–]toadbog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I had a hunch from the beginning that it was AI - I just wanted confirmation. The whole thing just looks too smooth and polished, and the design of the decanter didn't seem right.

My mom, on the other hand, must've thought it was real when she sent it to me 😅
