It was on a display between the butcher counter and the cereal aisle with a ton of other baking ingredients. It was low stock where it usually is near the milk.

It personally frustrates me a lot when grocery store employees make seasonal displays and completely wipe out the shelves to do so.

I was looking for pie crust and there was 0 pie crust at all where it should be. I figured there must have been a giant run on crust, but then later realized that no, it was in a seasonal cooler display in another location.

The same has happened before with spices and other baking needs. I get what they're trying to do but grocery shopping is already overwhelming enough for me without having to play hide and seek with seasonal displays. I've never worked at a place where we cleared out the regular stock area to make a display.

Preach. My mental map of each grocery store is very effective, stop fucking with it.

I used to work in bakery retail during the holidays - making those end caps is also annoying for the staff bc then we’d get a million questions or complaints 😅best bet is to politely ask someone working, so much faster than wandering around trying to find where they were told to put it
