The Advantages Of Working At A Grocery Store
 

Working at a grocery store isn't as fun as it sounds, but every now and then it pays off. At the store where I work at a soda vendor was runing a promotion to get their brand out there. It worked out as simple as you only have to pay for sales tax, but you have to buy at 2 two liter bottles and it can be as many as you want as it is an even number (and they have them in stock). So, I bought 48 two liter bottles and only paid $3 for them.

Damn sweet. I work for a hardware store chain and can take damaged products from the warehouse for pennies on the dollar. Stuff like beautytone paint, fertilizer, dirt, cleaners, pet food - stuff like that. If its got a dent, or bags got a hole, it doesnt get shipped to the stores.

We have a charity auction once per year of damages big stuff, furniture, matresses, appliance. Its staff only, and proceeds get donated to local charities.

sweet balls.

i want soda :(

its called big red? Its not like a cinnamony type taste like the big red gum is it? Eww.

i work at a place called Upper Lakes Food and we supply schools and like Perkins and stuff with food and if something gets crushed or whatever it goes on the "fire sale" rack...the other night i got a gallon of BBQ sauce a case of snack packs and 4 lbs of motzi sticks (nice combo hu lol) all for under 5 bucks for it all haha

No, it doesn't taste like big red gum, it tastes like cream soda.

used to know a guy who worked at frito lay and would take home boxes of chips cause they were expired. still good for a while.

ive been a mechanic for a while and im always taking spare parts home or tires for people. last week i got a spare tensioner for my truck just for the heck of it, it was squeaky but will work to get me home if mine brak

Where I work, I get the usual empoyee discount in the store but get great bargains on ammo that has been returned, either to us or from other stores. Pretty much about ten cents on the dollar. Not sure I'll be able to shoot it all up in my life time but I'll give it a try!

AJBert, not to get political, but with the current administration leading this
country down the toilet, you may just be able to see some use for that ammo..
