    I ordered two tier ESP holders from electronics and they work great for the takeaways. I can get the part number when I go in if you’re interested.

    My missing/reordered stuff started coming in this week.... on extra long pallets with huge boxes where miscellaneous parts are just thrown in there. I still have to weed through my two pallets like this to see what can actually go up. They sent things like 4/5 panels of my Mini CSE.

    So my master packing list had maybe 3 things listed as backordered, which I had actually received on the previous week’s pallet in an Archway carton and assumed someone had ordered them. I had no idea so much stuff was missing until people started asking for stuff like the brand headers. I...

    Ooh, be careful with that CSE pallet! I was waiting for the fall ones to come in (they were late too) and a pallet of them showed up. It was wrapped like our remodel signing was, but they turned out to be the exact same ones we have up from the last set. I had to order them individually off the...

    Oh, don’t worry, I haven’t even GOTTEN my “late” holiday pallet yet (we’re one of the 620 stores missing it according to merch update). I’m missing every overhead minus Wondershop and Kid at Heart, Sugar Paper Focal, premium wrap bins, tree table covers and the Rock table kit. They called me...

    My Goodfellow pallet came with two frame bottoms and no top. Suuuuper annoyed. PMT is going to try jerry-rigging it after lunch. Now about Star Wars. Midnight store here. I'm arguing with the brand new Plano tl/useless ETL-HL over what date to actually do the pre-setting of backer paper. It...

    So I put mine in the right aisle with the bedding pog, but definitely hung it OVER the actual gondola instead of the middle of the valley. I didn't notice the print under the picture until after I was done and I am not about to move it lol. I just learned that apparently some tls don't have SAP...

    So we actually did this October. Clear plenty of space for the fixtures- my garden center is still all jacked up/full of them. They did not send all the parts and arguing with mysupport was delightful. There will be hours charged out for installing the zone assist fixtures. I briefly got 1 or 2...

    I'm not sure if it has something to do with us having Home Innovation or what, but those pogs all have tons of space. A lot of them have extra facings there's so much space in fact. I can't explain it.

    New frozen pushers. I'm sitting on pallets of the 22" ones from the grocery rollout a few months ago because the frozen tl decided to have his guys "help" by putting the old ones in. We put them out on the base deck and they look pretty nice. We were going to do that until someone suggested the...

    Ugh, we were almost out of them because a hardlines tl wanted to use them on ALL the sheets. I ordered more as requested.... then they decided they wanted to use frozen pushers there instead (which I'll admit actually looks pretty good). Now I'm sitting on 4 cases up in the steel. o_O

    That maaaaaaaaaaaay have been me. :rolleyes: I found the tip earlier in this thread and my STL was super psyched to send it out. Sorry! I got a banner for men's, none for women's and no corrals for either department. Our district had an email last month about taking men's halos and banners...

    I found literally years worth of signing hidden everywhere when I took over in my new store. Old plastic softlines wall graphics, Lilly Pulitzer overheads, a pallet of softlines shelves shrink wrapped from the new store opening 8 years ago... I could go on. I'm st a prettyy large Super and I'm...

    So far I'm missing one or two brands of headers, an entire pog of strip signs, and some large fixtures that didn't get sent. YES. And not only can you not order just the front (to my knowledge), I just ordered a replacement for one we were missing and it took 2 full months to show up...
