Minimania

Guest

So now I'm really starting to lose my hat!!!! Today I bought the three products Hörnli, Fusilli and Babyshampooo, (you had the advertisement in the Migros magazine of 14.10.13 that there are the special minis from 15.10.13 to 19.10.13) and then there are no minis, neither in the pack, nor at the checkout, nor at the customer service... But there would have been 6-packs of pasta with the minis in them, but I can't use that much pasta at once...!!! And it wasn't communicated like that in the advertisement either, that makes me angry!!!
Quite apart from that, there was a huge drama when I got home, my son had been so looking forward to the special minis!!! Why don't you stop with this stuff if it doesn't work out after all!!!
Thank you so much, my day is ruined!!!!! :(

We already discussed here last week that the packs containing the Minis were poorly communicated in the advertisement. The M-Infoline wrote that they had decided to show single packs in the advertisements because they are easier to recognize than multiple packs. All the more reason, however, to feel obliged to indicate that the minis are in multipacks!

I have no sympathy for customers who buy a product specifically because it is supposed to contain the promised mini, but blindly take a pack from the shelf without paying attention to whether there is a reference to the special offer on it. It should be clear to everyone that there may also be older packs on the shelf that do not contain the Mini. The advertisement also states that it is a limited edition.

But if I read the ad and want the minis, it's not my problem how and where the minis are, I just want them if it was promised in the ad!!! You can't ask me to look for them too....By the way, I bought these products for the first (and last) time, but only because I needed them. And I don't think they'll all be gone by 8.30am, even if they are limited!!!

Nobody says that the packs of minis are all gone. But as you say yourself: you weren't looking for them. By the way, they weren't just sold today, but yesterday. And perhaps even earlier. At the earliest from the time they started to fill the shelves/specialty counters with them

So the ad says from 10/15/13 to 10/19/13, so from today....
but what the heck, I don't feel like getting upset anymore... I really have other problems!!!

n order to be able to sell the product from opening time today, it must have been brought to the sales floor at least yesterday. And from the moment it is there, it can also be sold. But who knows, maybe your store only started selling the product today and you were simply there too early...

i also don't like the fact that far too few minis were produced - and apparently none will be produced again! bad migros!

MiniMania is not an infinite thing like Cumulus. MiniMania is limited in time. That's why only a limited number of Minis were produced. Therefore: only while stocks last. And stocks have now run out. Yesterday, Migros announced that the last Minis had been delivered to the stores. As this is a limited-time offer, there is no guarantee that further Minis will be produced and delivered.

no, i'm not complaining about that! but i don't think it's great that there are no minis left so much before the end of the campaign. how could there be too few to increase their value and popularity?!

If you limit the duration of a promotion like this, it's logical that you calculate so that stocks run out by the set date - but under no circumstances should you still have the stuff in stock after the end of the promotion. Running out of stock two weeks before the end of the promotion is certainly not very pleasant for customers, but also for Migros. On the other hand, the exchange markets were also launched at this time. I doubt whether Migros will benefit if the value and popularity of the Minis increase and, in order to achieve this, it is calculated that the stock will be used up prematurely.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter whether the Minis are no longer available now, in two weeks' time or in mid-November (after the end of the official promotion period): either way, there will be customers who are disappointed not to receive any more Minis.
