My bet is leadership will follow up on it because it is "the thing" right now. How they will do it, probably by looking at endcaps and seasonal. We were told once seasonal is near the end and nothing else was to come in we were to leave everything were it is and basically spread it out or expand the facings of one item to cover the out of the item next to it. For the time being while this is still a hot topic, it will HAVE to be done that way or answered to during a visit. We'll see what happens in toys.Curious how well this is going in stores? I know it is just starting to roll out. My store will have so much trouble with this, especially in Q4 when they over push toys beyond the max. Curious if field leadership will follow up on this.
What?! No they wouldn't do that!🤣Stay tuned for next week, where we get instructed to flex because it looks like we are going out of business. And the week after that where we cant flex because everything is all over the place. And don't get me started on the week after that!
Flexing is a must, not flexing just looks awful. I don't know who's bright idea it was to set jean walls with bin tickets but when they are set to "plan" the walls look horrible.Stay tuned for next week, where we get instructed to flex because it looks like we are going out of business.

Bullseye still gets flexed when an item is OOS or discontinued.We’ve been doing this for a few months now. End caps are constantly empty and our bullseye section looks like crap.
At my store, we just go with it the best we can and hope the rest of it comes in soon. The last round of OTC and Personal Care end caps were mostly sort of set twice - once without all the ISM and again when it came it. Still haven't received it for the Dove end cap, but at least it's a back one so not so noticeable. The Crest one though is still missing one of the toothpastes; I have the product but the price is showing as $0.00. As much as I hate the chat bot, I actually created a case for it; the reply was that it's going to be reset, again, soon (next week, I think) and the problem should resolve.So what do you do when a newly set salesplanner is more than half empty?
