My mother called Bed, Bath and Beyond (back when it was an actual store) "Bed and Bath." But she's just like that. She also calls Menards "Maynards." Not because of a Southern accent or something, she grew up in New York City. She's just weird.

We called it "Blood Bath From Beyond".

There was also bath and body works which smelled way better, maybe she combined both?

I think she's just kind of dotty to be honest. You should hear what she thinks about preserving foods in her pantry for a decade or more. I don't eat at her house.

Back in ye olde days it used to just be called Bed n’ Bath, guess they were yet to discover products Beyond that

That's more accurate anyway. There's no Beyond section.
