Re: What annoys you most about big box retailers ?
One of the biggest one for me is the lack of knowledge from the staff, I can not count how many times I have gone in into WM and ended up helping a parent or grandparent find a tf they are looking for and the staff member who is in that department has no clue about what is in their department. I have even heard one say "this is not my department."
or the staff just ignores the persons and gets ticked off if you try to ask them a question.

It makes me sympathetic for the riduculous prices that Austrailians have to pay.

Re: What annoys you most about big box retailers ?
Lack of product by a mile. And not just Transformers: video games, food items, etc - I feel like I'm constantly struggling and checking multiple locations to find stock.
Distant second is Walmarts penchant for having 3 checkouts open with massive lines on a busy day.
It's like they're failing at the 2 most basic elements of retail: have product, and accept money in exchange for said product.
That said, I as impressed to see on the front of this week's Real Canadian Superstore flyer a big banner stating they guarantee having all checkouts open 10am-6pm this weekend. Smart.

You mentioned Super Store so I have to have my say. I hate how they close the self check out lane near closing time to empty the cash from the machines. Then there is like 2 normal checkout lanes open. Why can't the empty the machines after closing.

Re: What annoys you most about big box retailers ?
Customers who whip out the stack of flyers to price match just as they get to the register. That, in combination with a cashier who doesn't understand price matching.
One of two items to price match is fine, but anything more should be redirected to a dedicated price-matching checkout line with a knowledgeable cashier.

Prices, scalpers, lack of product, etc... That is why I haven't done any toy hunting in years. Nothing worst than going into a store and seeing empty shelves or junk and leaving empty handed. Not worth the trouble.

The tissue paper they try to pass off as toilet paper in the bathrooms.
