COMMISSARY NOTES
MIZAR DELAYED. As this article goes to press we have received word that our next
replenishment ship from Seattle will be delayed 4 to 5 days due to two extra port
of calls enroute. Some items of sensitive chill were not loaded due to the rev
ised ETA and Questionable condition upon arrival*
WE WOULD LIKE to invito the attention of those patrons who in the past have been
looking for Melmac Cleaner, that a shipment has been receivedvia parcel post and
is currently stocked next to the Cleaners in the Household Section.
A FEW WORDS t<5 thfe new arrivals on the Station - In case you don't know, our But
chers will be happy to accomodate you on "special Orders*’ for meats * Basically
f-his service is limited to steaks and roasts cut to your specifications,, part
icularly if you have not been able to find just the size you prefer. Normally,
special orders are desired 2 to 3 days in advance of desired pickup date. .Special
order blanks are available in the Butcher shop and one of the Butchers - may bo con
Laced for specific details. In addition, if you would like any items chimed (sawed
thru the bone) the butchers will be happy to accomodate you whenever the saw is in d
operation. We would like to invite the patrons attention that the saw is normally "
secured one hour prior to closing time in order to permit proper cleaning of the
butcher shop. While we are on the subject of the butcher shop, we have received
advance copies of our documents covering the shipment of beef hindquarters due in
the early part of April and the initial cost (and selling) price has increased from
the present 47/ lb to 50/ per lb. ^hose patrons who have been pleased with the
quality of the Bar S Home Freezer Style Hindquarter may be interested to know that
>ve are now selling this item at cost price of $.92 lb. (sounds exceedingly high,
however, when one considers the 30 to 35% cutting loss involved on one of the 50/
per lb hindquarters it rather equalizes the net cost to the patron. )
SUGGESTIONS OR IDEAS? We are still looking for new idea's and new items which any
patrons may have in mind. While we do enjoy receiving.your verbal idea's, we do
recommend that you jot these suggestions, etc*, down and drop them into the suggest
ion box. We feel that if they are in writing it will eliminate the possibility of
a later mental block and expedite action. As we have mentioned previously, don’t
think that we have "circular filed" your suggestion if you don't see it on the shel^
the next time a ship arrives. Normally it takes approximately 90 days from date of
submission of our initial order to NSD Seattle*
