Weihnachten Tages Joker vom 08.12.2018

Dear Migros,
I think the Joker offers are great,
but now I have to ask, are these Joker offers loss leaders?
The reason is that it doesn't say while stocks last, so it should be available until an hour before closing time.
But unfortunately it was once again no longer available in the Paradies store in Allschwil and that was already in the afternoon...
So not exactly customer-friendly. Which is something you can slowly get used to in this store as far as product availability is concerned. Which are on offer.

Hello @MarcelloBL

The way I see it in the catering trade, it's not a customer catch in terms of price.

100g of minced beef is really original around 2.-, depending on where you buy it.

Meat promotions sell out very quickly, just like cola. I think they are in a special cooler where there are only Joker things (but I'm not sure). I don't know if they are also Joker offers in the normal rack. If so, go to the normal rack, which is then usually still full I have experienced ?

Thanks for your reply, but I didn't say anything about the price, but because the item is already out of stock in the afternoon. Oh and just for info, of course I asked if they had the daily joker. Answer no and that in the afternoon. So please read carefully what it's all about thanks.

Good evening@MarcelloBL

Read at the end of the Tagesjocker before the footer:

"*Available in larger Migros stores. M-Budget and already reduced items are excluded from all offers. These Daily Joker offers are valid on the specified date in normal household quantities, while stocks last."

Best regards

@MarcelloBL Tages Joker yes, I read it carefully. But since you gave the example with the meat, I thought it was only about that example.

You wrote "are these bait-and-switch offers?"

My wording was "customers are being taken for a ride because of the price".

Ergo I then wrote how the prices are and how depending on the true sold out example meat I thought it was about.

In general, I don't know if everything is gone quickly.

Then we just talked past each other, but I understood the text very well.

Thanks for the info but the store is not small but an MMM and since it has often happened that they had too little stock in this store, this time it just blew my hat off. Because you can also order it so that it lasts longer than just in the morning, was certainly not the only customer
who came into the store because of this.

Hello Mystery1978, yes, it was already about the daily joker from 08.12. but it wasn't about the price at all. It was only about the fact that this branch is not the first time that it has too few goods, but I think you are right that we have written a little past each other, so no offense.
That because of everything quickly gone ne the strange white from the Joker 07.12. they had a whole cooler full on 08.12. still.

Hi MarcelloBL, it's really annoying when there are not enough goods when you go shopping and you go home empty-handed. I have forwarded your feedback to the Migros Cooperative Basel. I'll get back to you as soon as I know more. Best regards, Sina

Hi MarcelloBL, yes, that annoyed me so much last year too. This luring into the stores in December is a bit of a lock bird offer in my opinion. I was looking forward to the Bündner Rohschinken last year, went into an MMM Altstetten ZH after work at 17:00 and when I asked for the daily Joker (Advent calendar offer), I got the terse answer. Asking about the offer at this time of day is almost funny. No, it's not funny for me, I work and can't afford to be standing on the mat in the morning after the store opens.
You could stagger the deliveries until closing time so that some people would still have the chance to get something at a discount. This year I'm avoiding the Migros offers and going shopping elsewhere at a lower price anyway, or just in the delicatessen department at ZH Bahnhofsstrasse.

I think it is extremely difficult for all chains to estimate the quantity so as not to throw it away at the end...

Nobody mentioned anything about throwing them away. These jocker offers certainly have a longer shelf life than just that day, that's a lame excuse. You can sell them again afterwards. And the offers are always very good, so the run on these items is usually huge.
