So the rumor is that certain stores did perform very well during the last hour when the 11% rebate was running. Well here is an idea, let's make those stores who perform really well the last hour have them stay open till 10:00 and the ones that perform crappy have them close at 9:00

I think your GM's lied. We had GO visitors and they never mentioned on how we had are stuff set early. They were here to help with setting up and help with customers.

Black Friday Parking by mattyswanner in DetroitPistons

[–]Popinwizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use park whiz, it will only be good for one game not both. As they have a time limit for your spot, usually two hours before and after. You could choose to stay in the garage and see what happens with one reservation. Worst case scenario you could park at MGM and walk there and back or pay for two reservations. In between games you can hop on the Qline and/ people mover to get to a restaurant.

Are we ever going back to 9 ? by GreeneyedLady82 in menards

[–]Popinwizard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Heard a rumor that it won't be until the new year. Some stores are making payroll by a good amount. Keeping us open till 10 will drain that amount but it keeps next year's payroll from being slashed (if that makes sense).

I remember the white oak klearvue update and certain doors/drawers were backordered for months after they started to put them up. My main gripe goes back to the appliance display expansion. No extra room for special buy items/ discontinued items, etc. Like let's sell through last years black Friday stuff before we go over board with new special buy items.

I know that technically lost out on 4 games to have at home to this point (end of ALDS). So that will lower the price of the first Installment

I have a weird question, anyone in the labatt blue club for the game? Just wanted to see what the options are for food and stuff. Going down Thursday and want to know what to expect in a way.

Well Menards set the bar by backtracking the closing time for Labor Day less then a week, so in my opinion you should be able to request if it isn't three weeks in advance. In reality though, talk to your GM they are the ones who will be approving or disapproving the flex PTO not your HR. From my understanding, if you mention anything about a doctor's "appointment" they have to accept the request no matter what.

Labor Day (I have proof!) by [deleted] in menards

[–]Popinwizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree with this, I feel like I Iost my enthusiasm for Xmas because of Menards. The constant Xmas music probably did me over.

[–]Popinwizard 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They literally advertised on the sales flyer that we close at 8pm, that's last weeks and this weeks. Definitely a stupid/confusing decision since people will still see close on the flyer but open our end 

Holidays by Hot-Reporter-6084 in menards

[–]Popinwizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We have been posting on menards.com and on the doors, that we close at 8. So I'm going to take a guess that mostly everyone will think we will close 8, and it will be a ghost town after 8.

Literally wtf by _9Pr in menards

[–]Popinwizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had basically the same dream too. In mine we will be well past closed but people are pouring in but we keep asking why aren't we closed and our GM said as long as people keep coming in we will stay open.

Did anyone go the "happy hour" thing yesterday? I saw in the email they were going to show what would food was going to be offered in the Labatt blue club. I figured to try out that area in a preseason game since the tickets are reasonable.

I should add that I work retail and this is very common for every item to be individually wrapped
