Birty Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Whats happening down there? My hubby went for me today and couldn't find a thing, they're moving it all round once again, whether its to make room for Xmas stuff I dont know, but he said the staff were getting harrassed by so many people asking where things were. Its so annoying when they do this They think it makes you look round more and buy more, i think its more likley to drive you away and try elsewhere.

mystie Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I once spent half an hour trying to find eggs in one of their shops. They sell all this useless s**t like prussian red wine fish sauce (or somebloodything like that) and they hide their eggs and milk at the back of the shop! You know there's a Tesco on Abbeydale right?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Sainsbury's are currently having a refit. The official line is that "we're bringing the layout in line with other Sainsbury's stores".. Whether or not that is the actual case, I couldn't tell you - but it's just as confusing for the majority of staff as it is for customers.. They're aiming to have it completed by September 29th.

You know there's a Tesco on Abbeydale right?? Oh aye. The one that had: no houmus, no lettuces, no yogurt without bits of fruit in (fussy kid), or barbecued chickens at 5.30 the other night. And that was just on the first aisle. They seem to have real stock control problems. God knows what it's like in the middle of the night. Probably got nothing left at all!

Probably got nothing left at all! they start to restock from about 9ish i think - i often go after work and find it impossible to navigate aisles cos they get loads of stuff out, leave it blocking the aisles, then put it away and you have to dig through big crates to get your stuff.

barclay Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 How many refits can one store have in such a short time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy_camper Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I'm quite looking forward to it cos I think they're going to have more clothes. Buying clothes whilst buys bread - Great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DapperDan Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I used to work there shelf stacking part time when I was at college and uni. I was there for the first refit when they extended the front of the shop outwards and put the escalators in. Since I left in 1998, I've only been in there a couple of times. Bet it's changed a bit since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
