And yes, I confirmed the no-shipments, zero-stock with the store manager. 5 days and counting with no stock so far, when the sale started there was maybe 12-24 bottles for 128,000 residents in the city.

    Isn’t there an ongoing strike at Loblaws distribution centres?

    Sounds like a great time to issue a sale on products that you know you won’t have to actually sell at the discounted price, and then blame it on the union.

      Do stores do rain checks there if you ask for them?

      I’ve seen it at some stores in the US in the past, but not something that would be advertised, just some people getting a rain check if they specifically ask for it.

        Yes but it varies store to store. you could also submit a corporate complaint and hope they reply with a coupon of some sort…
