General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

i would always tell them, "if you see something that expires tomorrow and you want it just bring it to me and i'll mark it down" but they'd sit there and wait for me to get to it and do it.

And my grandma got bored after she retired and decided to work at Walmart part time for awhile, she informed me of the conspiracy about rearranging shelves all the time so people have to wander around and buy more shit

 

[Chris]

Well she confirmed the conspiracy I guess

 

[Butters]

the only time we did that was if we lost or got new product

 

[Chris]

Also said every time they marked an item for sale some adjacent item quietly went up a few cents in price too

 

[Chris]

Idk if that one is true tho lol she was reaching on some of it

 

[Butters]

yeah that might be true, i didn't pay enough attention to price changes

 

[Butters]

there would be times shit would get marked down like 1 penny

 

[Butters]

at one point i was in charge of the grocery section which is half of the fucking store.

 

[Chris]

She just did like restocking and I guess repricing at night lol she always worked nights before she retired so just never transitioned to a normal schedule

 

[Butters]

would take half my shift just to do price changes because shit would change like 5 cents for some reason. was such a waste of time.

I mean $.05 times 10000 stores probably added up quick profit wise

 

[Butters]

we all dreamed of the days the price tags would turn to lcd displays that would change on their own.

 

[Chris]

They can do that now

 

[Chris]

Kroger been in some hot water with their dynamic pricing where it changes price during the day based on trends of people buying stuff
