American Girl's Quality and What It Could Mean for Them

-
In my last post I talked about it a little, and I want to explain what I mean. Since 2016, American Girl's quality has really been dropping. They aren't paying attention to us, or are just ignoring us. They seem to think that dropping quality and keeping prices is the answer to save their sales, even though ,us, the customers, are disagreeing. Even if they were to drop their prices, it wouldn't help them. This is because there fans would still be upset because what they would want to change still wouldn't be changing. The only change American Girl has made is the perma-panties thing. The more that Mattel treats American Girl like Barbie, and the more American Girl lets it happen, the lower their sales will go. This isn't just about us wanting to heard, it's about letting their employees keep their jobs. American Girl could end soon, we need to prevent this. Here are some ways you can help.

 -Follow @bringbackagquality on Instagram, they are really helping me keep up with everything.

 -Contact them. The more we contact American Girl, the more they will have to listen. https://www.americangirl.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/MattelAGContactUsContentView?catalogId=10601&langId=-1&storeId=10651

-Boycott. The more customers they lose, the more likely they are to realize their mistakes. 

 Now here are some ways to prevent getting a bad quality item from American Girl.

 -Read reviews. It doesn't just have to be on the American Girl site, un-boxing videos on Youtube are also helpful. I'm also planning to do some reviews on here when I get new items.

 -Research. Search up the item and see what you find, you'll find more reviews and you can also look at images to see what defects there are.

 -Examine. If you have an American Girl store in your state (or a popup store or Kohl's) you can look in the display and see what you discover. I will just say real quick that Maryellen's fridge is great quality and I haven't had any problem with the cardboard boxes.

 Thank you so much for reading!!!

Rainy Day (Blaire Short Story #1)

-
    First off, these aren't in any particular order, just little short stories about Blaire and what I think could happen in one of her stories. Also, sorry I'm writing this so late, I was going to write this yesterday, but I forgot to. In other words, I'm writing this at school. I hope you enjoy the story! (It's in Blarie's point of view.)      I stepped outside, that's when I remembered; it was raining. So then I turned around and went back inside. I wasn't wet thanks to the awning over our front porch. I went to the coat closet in my family's entry way and pulled out my lavender rain jacket and my floral umbrella. I threw on my rain jacket and opened the umbrella once I got onto the front porch. I then headed out in the pouring rain to the barn. My morning chore was to feed the animals and look for chicken eggs, which only took about forty-five minutes. Yet, I was often in the barn for much longer, just talking to the animals about my day; like they...

Regarding the Quality Change Rumors

-
    Yes, I know I left the Blaire short stories on a bit of cliffhanger, but I can't think of what to write next for the story. Plus, I feel like I'd probably end up making it a mystery because I'm writing a mystery story right now. I'm on my 11th chapter. Now, here's the actual post.      I wanted to address this because I've heard a lot about it and there are some things we need to remember. First thing that we need to remember, is that this is a rumor. We don't actually know if American Girl's quality will be all back to normal on January 1st. After all, that would take a lot of work to fix. This rumor was first addressed in late November, I believe and if it's true it would still take so much time to make all of those dolls. Remember, they need ones for shipping, and all of the AG stores. Even if they had figured this out earlier, it still just seems unlikely for it to be true. Secondly, even if it is true, American Girl hasn't addressed th...
