I still get pissed off about it. Usually because I can't find what I'm looking for, and I just wanted to grab it and get out.<br /><br />According to the manager I asked, corporate wanted to "make all the stores have the same layout." Which is ridiculous when you realize that they don't even all have the same floor plans (the other two stores in the area are significantly different). Personally, I think it's because making people have to search for what they want supposedly increases impulse buying.<br /><br />At least the last time, they had the excuse that they were expanding the store to double it's previous size.<br /><br />wv: fated - It is fated that they will rearrange your grocery store at a time when it is the most inconvenient for you to have to search for the <i>one thing</i> you went in for.Jake (formerly Riposte3)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02976718318892210404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-37576374393771368822011-09-22T08:57:00.424-04:002011-09-22T08:57:00.424-04:00ALL the grocery stores here have re-arranged withi...ALL the grocery stores here have re-arranged within the last year (a couple are still working on it). I hate it. What used to be a 15minute in an out with stuff is now 1/2hr plus of wandering the isles looking for what a I need, and picking up all kinds of extra stuff that caught my eye while I was wandering. Its so not cool.<br /><br />Warn her, if you dare, that if they only just started the re-arranging then things are going to KEEP moving till they're done.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924993310937754220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-88876904467200854532011-09-22T07:33:20.494-04:002011-09-22T07:33:20.494-04:00Please tell your wife I HAAAAAATE it when the groc...Please tell your wife I HAAAAAATE it when the groc store changes.Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12778737553770514684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-73439625399015137432011-09-22T07:13:21.713-04:002011-09-22T07:13:21.713-04:00If a tree falls in the forest,and no one is around...If a tree falls in the forest,and no one is around to hear it, the man is still wrong.RJIIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03200753641660620810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657394535887928020.post-33531601222156688242011-09-22T07:00:02.829-04:002011-09-22T07:00:02.829-04:00Wow..
