FRESH PRODUCE AND DAILY PRODUCTS DUE Tl-'IS WEEK - The SS Contest is due to arrive
27 September and will be bringing in a good supply of fresh fruits and Veget
ables plus some of the fresh daily products we have been temporarily out of* All
these items will be out for sale as quickly as we can get them received- and pro
cessed (normally the following day after they are offloaded. ) Vie have ample
stocks of all items arriving and we plan to- stay open until 1830 on Thursday and
Friday evening, thus giving everyone ample shopping time. In view of the ex
tended shopping hours we do hot plan to establish special produce shopping
hours, although we may have_ to establish limits on certain items which have to
be prepacked, in order to keep up with the rush. Appropriate signs will be
posted by any items involved.
SPEAKING ABOUT DAIRY PRODUCTS - Those patrons who liked the first shipment of
white tetra-pak milk we had on hand, but were disappointed in the next shipment,
will be pleased to know that the real fresh dairy has advised us that the odd
taste in the latter case, resulted from inferior containers they had received.
Although the milk is safe to drink, the Real Fresh Dairy has requested us to
pull our remaining stocks from sale and that they be permitted to replace.this
milk without further cost. Replacement stocks are expected aboard the first
shin in October.
BUTCHER SHOP MOTES - We would like to request the cooperation of all of our pat
rons in providing our butchers with a normal two days minimum notice on special
orders. It is,recognized that there may be times when the unexpected occurs and
it is not possible to provide the normal notice and we shall be glad to try to
accomodate you in such cases. ' The butchers would like to have five days notice
for orders of Navy Issue hindquarters due to the amount of cutting involved. We
also seek the assistance of groups having barbecues or steak fries in providing
the butchers with advance notice, particularly in the case of thoseparties who
desire 20 to 30 lbs of hamburger on five minutes notice. We fry to anticipate
demand and grind our hamburger fresh on a daily basis and an unusual demand for
large quantities may result in a number of families missing out. We would like
to be in a position to be able to provide "on the spot" service, however when one
is working with frozen meats there are natural complications involved which req
uire thawing to some degree prior to cutting and processing.
FRIENDLY REMINDERS to all patrons - just a few helpful hints which we hope will
melee your shopping more pleasant; A, Please verify your change immediately upon
receiving same from the register operator, prior to leaving the scene. If after
taking all necessary precautions, doubt exists as to the proper change received
after you have left the register please contact SHC DUCK on the salesfloor or
the Officer in Charge and we shall be happy to contact you by phone on the foll
owing morning after we have reconciled our cashiers cash with the actual cash
register reading. Please do not consult the cashier after you have left the vic
inity of the register, B. Make it a practice to periodically check back your
register tape to insure that your purchases have been correctly charged. . Please
consult the OinC or SHC DUCK in case of any questions. C. As'you are probably
aware of, our bag boys are volunteer workers whose only wages are the tips they
receive. Tipping is strictly voluntary on the part of the patron and when bag
boys are on duty, they are expected to treat all patrons with equal courtesy (tip
or no tip) and part of their normal duties is to assist in taking groceries out
side (no further tipping is required for this service ). Wa would appreciate any
comments .‘the patrons may have in regards to the services rendered.
