Then when I went to the customer service desk to fill out the log because I had found some in the checkout aisles to buy, I asked if they were busy that day with others buying gift cards because of the gas promo. " No, I was the first person that bought that day."
So that's telling me that perhaps the management had stripped off the 20 - 500 gift cards from the racks to limit the amount of people that could buy them and limit the gas points earned during the promotional period?
Anyone else have this idea?
I went to a 3rd Giant today, and that one was flooded this time with them. I suspect it has little to do with the store, and more with the individual that is stocking them. All 3 of the stores I went to the person there was not new, and also was somewhat unfamiliar with how to fill out the log, which suggests to me that purchases are way down (2 remarked "it's been a while".
