I wanted to hand in my ballot paper today at 6pm at the Zurich Scheffelstrasse branch and was told at the checkout that the reward chocolate was already out of stock. In such a case, I expect the staff to react flexibly (or to be authorized to do so by the head office) and hand over a chocolate from the normal range. I couldn't care less whether the chocolate is labeled "thanks for voting". After all, this is the only reason for me to take part in this vote at all. If it were possible to vote again on factual issues that influence Migros policy, it would be very, very different!

Hello
At a normal Migros, you can never wait until the last day, whether it's for the ballot, vouchers or trading cards. Just look at the other thread to see how long people have been waiting for the bunnies. If there's one thing Migros is good at, it's failing towards the end of such campaigns.
You always have to check with customer service first to see if there's any voting chocolate left and otherwise go to another branch. After filling out our cards, we leave them in the car so we don't forget them. The chocolate is not available in every Migros either, years ago a sales clerk once said that it was only available in the larger branches. I don't know if that's true, but she looked as if she had eaten the bars herself.
However, there is at least one store where promotions always last longer than at all the others. I think they send all the chocolate bunnies there after Easter and sell them at half price. I was told that in the past, when the voting chocolate was still made of nut chips and brittle, you could get a different chocolate of your choice if you didn't like the normal one. Maybe it's because it's a Migros partner store, but in any case it's second to none when it comes to service, flexibility and friendliness. Migros is not just Migros.
Have a nice Sunday, Migi Piglet
who is only taking part in the vote because of the free chocolate.
Where can you get the voting chocolate?
Because of Corona (last year and this year) there's no chocolate (it's written somewhere on the voting documents, talon or accompanying letter). Maybe there will be one again when Corona is over...

2b Voting NO would be important. Everything that is electronic is volatile and easy to falsify!!! AND NO, IT IS CLEARLY STATED THAT WHEN YOU SUBMIT YOUR VOTER, you will receive a gift as a thank you - shocker!!!? Question to 1. Where is the annual report????? Otherwise there was always one. How am I supposed to vote if I have nothing? Or am I just too blind, blonde to find it....?

On the lilac-colored voting card (at least for me), on the side where the Migros return address is written "Voting card for the 2021 ballot", below "Last day to vote: Saturday, 5 June 2021": "Due to the coronavirus situation, this year's votes will be cast exclusively by post and without handing in the chocolate. Please drop the completed voting card unstamped in the nearest letterbox. Thank you for your understanding." It said the same thing last year.

Annual report etc.: https://www.migros.ch/de/unternehmen/medien/medienkonferenz-2021.html I think it should also be published in the latest Migros magazine, but I'm not 100% sure...

I have an orange voting card from Migros Aare and my accompanying letter says we can send it in or hand it in directly and receive a bar of chocolate. We can also vote until 17.06.21... Long live Migros Aare! ;) But anyway, we're discussing a bar of chocolate here, no more and no less. It's not worth the nerves and words...

It looks like the individual cooperatives handle it differently, but it's still a fine bar of chocolate ;-)
