I greatly preferred JC Penny Home Store as it had better prices than BBB but better selection than general stores like Target/Walmart (and I often liked the bedding/curtain patterns they carried better). Unfortunately their financial troubles caused them to consolidate the Home Store into their main stores, and the selection is now no better than those later options, and I've thus been going to BBB more often.

I hope this is a restructuring and not a shutdown. It will be crummy for there to be no stores filling the gap between Target and William Sonoma.

"The gap between Target and Williams Sonoma" is a decent summary of my frustration with an awful lot of product selection in both the US and in Germany.

Williams Sonoma always feels like the sky mall catalog; overpriced and basically as crappy. It’s quite annoying to find actually good products- it’s usually still possible but takes some serious digging.
