Speaking of Fifo. Do your Vendors do it? If never noticed if they do or not.

Yes they do.. if they don't and I find out of date product it usually leads to me calling their boss after a red for the week.

That's what I thought but I wasn't sure. Thank you

You are correct. From our wiki:
Pallet-In, Pallet-Out, or PIPO, refers to a pallet which the distribution center receives from a supplier and sends to the store without breaking it down.

We used to have a candy vendor who would get super angry at the GSTLs if we didn't keep the checklane candy FIFOed.

That's super hard to do, working candy in check lanes is such a chore especially if you try to fifo. I just take candy from our least used lanes put new candy there and use those least used lanes candy to fill the top of the most used lanes about the best compromise for "speed is life" i could make.

Aint nobody got time for that.

Although it is pretty sad when I push batteries and see two or three different package designs

My favorite is when the batteries feature a sweepstakes on the package that ended in 2003.
