Pringles at Bookers.
Has anyone noticed the complete lack of stock Bookers have had for this current promotion?? I travel to two Bookers near me and have been lucky to get twenty cases of stock from each branch....... Regards Al.

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
I agree, They dont appear to want to sell them on offer. Perhaps they are not making much.
I ordered some in last week and they came in sporadically. When I arrived to collect my order, I checked the shelves and saw there were more available. When I tried to load them onto another trolley, they stopped me saying " we cant sell you more than you have ordered, as other customers will suffer". I spoke to the manager, who then agreed to let me take the others. What a shower.

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
I ordered 100 trays of each flavour two weeks ago, I just phoned for an update on my order and they say they have no record of the order!!! Funny that because the manager and two supervisors were present when I made the order. They really don't have a clue this company, scary how these big companies have managed to get to where they are when they don't seem to know there **** from their elbow.
I am waiting for a call today to see if I can re order and still pay the offer price
Cheers

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
I got my 200 trays no problem but I think they are glad to see me back in the branch again as I told them straight that Makros were hands down better to buy pringles from that Bookers because
A. the offer price is normally better at £3.79 as opposed to £3.99 which is the useual Bookers offering.
B. Bookers dont do the Prawn Flavour and you cannot even put in a special order for them even if buying a pallet of the Prawn.
The company will go the same way as Jessops and HMV as they seem to have lost the plot lately??

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
I thought that Makro and Bookers had been either bought out or Makro has bought Bookers or the other way around?

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
yeah I heard that rumour too!
probably explain why things are such a mess as probably not big enough customer base to keep both companies going now as alot ppl using 3663 or south Lincs or supermarket offers now!

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
Im not too sure if you are aware but Pringles was bought by Kellogg's earlier last year so everyone seems to be struggling to purchase and not just Bookers .... the stock itself is not avaialable as rumour has it they are struggling to get the stock over?

Re: Pringles at Bookers.
I went into Bookers, ordered and paid for 150 cases. phoned me a 5 days later to say my stock was in, collected it and emptied the shelves at the same time. what's the problem? At Bookers and Makro you can't order without paying, otherwise it goes on the shelf and someone else gets it!
