damn those PA's they didn't order any or the FDC or C&S just didn't send any, wtf.

I have no ctl & pa's with no concept of ordering stuff. I am a fdc. I am lucky to get a good zone in pfresh.

at my store, pfresh, we are number 1 in our district for selling the most in produce and meat.

we had 7 pallets of produce come on thursday and another 3 of produce come today saturday this is just for the weekend.

I had to do research to get some items in.

 

[qmosqueen]

I had to do research to get some items in.

yes, we research the meat 3 times a week to keep it fresh and full.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

I do the research for breakfast items. Everyone else likes them too at my store.

I'm a pfresh and we don't have cabbage either. No corned beef either.

The corned beef, we carry is the hormel corned beef hash.

Yes we have that too. Bleck. I meant fresh corned beef

I do understand totally.

Neither do we but we can still order it and toss it out. Same with ginger and the clamshel mint/parsley/cilantro.

Pull up the FDC fill report and see if HQ just cut all your ordered items.

at my store i can sell 1 case of cabbage in 3 days so 4 cases will go quick if i TPC them to like 40 percent off !

Yeah, we can sell the four cases. The problem is that we already had three, and we will likely get more. Last year I believe we had 10-12 at one time.

I gotta say watching my past Market section burn to the ground is giving me mixed feelings, it is like watching my Childhood home burn to the ground... but watching Tom Brady lose to the Broncos in the Playoffs through my front window.

Turkey breast in the Ad, with a little over a Half pallet just sitting in our Freezer, how many on the floor? none.

Be global and fix that! Make it brand!

I guess the firefighters walk by all the time and don't notice or care that it's burning.

We have cabbage at my P-Fresh, and the FDC sent us some pre-packaged corned beef this season. The cabbage doesn't sell that well most of the year, but this time of year, it's popular with the Irish guests and those who wish they were Irish.

 

[oath2order]

there is absolutely no way that we sold enough product in Dairy on a Monday to warrant three Metro racks of push in the fucking autofills

Most likely just means a lot of dpci's hit their trigger amount to pull.

 

[qmosqueen]

trigger amount to pull.

this is a new one on me enlighten me, please.
I know more will come out on a pull if you qmos those items they come out on the next pull. I have never heard of the trigger amount ??

 

[Produce Queen]

A certain percentage of the capacity of each DPCI had to sell before it pulls. It used to be 30% for all open market items. Don't know if that has changed. So if the capacity is 20, none will pull until 6 sell.

This. And make sure your SFQs are accurate, or else a whole bunch of product will pull unnecessarily.

it's officially EASTER season ... FDC sent me 4 pallets of EGGS,(3 pallets of the larger dozen eggs and 1 pallet of mixture)..

these large dozen eggs will be 99 cents starting Sunday and are also on cartwheel for 5% off ... so .99 - .05 (cartwheel) - .09 (team member discount) - .04(Red card) = .81

thats a great deal and spend 50 dollars and get a 10 gift card
