Super Lake

Hooo, feo. Falta muchas cosas otra vez.

Slainte, it's clear the poor guy doesn't have the ordering cycle down. He looked frantic this morning.

I was in yesterday as well and they didn´t have anything I had come in looking for.

They're following the Walmart model for restocking.

Is that the model where they don't restock some items because the items run out too soon, or the model where they restock during the day so that you have to ask somebody to move so you can get to a shelf, or the model where they don't put the right item numbers into the computer so that you have to wait for somebody to go check the prices posted on the shelf?

Sounds like Pancho will need to take over all of El Barco soon.......

While I don't agree that Pancho was a good merchandiser, he was VERY good at procurement and logistics.

I went to Super Lake on Sunday again at 8 am and waited until the guy showed up at 8:10am and he went in and shut the door, we waited 5 more minutes then went to Breakfast then went back. I think the store is cleaner than it has ever been.

I go on Tuesday. For the second week in a row, they were out of eggs in cartons. I am totally inept at carrying eggs around in a bag. <very big sigh>

Over the last year or two, mysmart phone has saved me a lot of $$.

When I see a really good price on something, I check the SKU and take a picture of the posted sign. I would say 20% of the time, items are rung up differently at the checkout. Sometimes I ask them for a price check first.

Just keeping the system honest.
