It's nice to see the new products that we're made to look forward to every week with 20x Cumulus points. However, it seems to have become fashionable recently to advertise new products that are not available in the entire Bern/Biel region according to the availability information. I was interested in the following products and can't find any of them in my area, not even in the MMM stores:
https://produkte.migros.ch/angebote/dessert-tradition-creme-birne-schokolade-1219201?region=gmaa
https://produkte.migros.ch/angebote/bon-chef-currysauce-in-dose-1234684?region=gmaa
According to the availability query, the following product is also missing, but I found it in the Gümligen store:
https://produkte.migros.ch/angebote/bon-chef-federkohlsuppe-im-beutel-1234756?region=gmaa
Two possibilities: Either the availability check doesn't work, which can't be the inventor's intention, or Migros is advertising bait-and-switch offers for promotions that don't even exist.

@Federwolke
At least the Tradition cream is available in the Migros Aare economic area, because I bought it last week in the Tivoli/Spreitenbach branch.
Perhaps the offending products simply haven't reached Biel yet, @Migros?

I was able to buy the special edition of the cream in MMM Marktgasse this week without any problems - but "Cup Lovers" was apparently already sold out in the new cinnamon variety, with only an empty box on the shelf. On the other hand, there are new products that haven't even been advertised yet, such as the quark-cream apple-pear as a limited edition successor to my much-loved lemon-lime variety.
Follow-up question: Do such "special editions" come back every year? I would also be interested in the Wähen.

Thank you both. So a problem with the availability query. As a result, you have to make a pilgrimage to the largest store for all new products, just like in the digital Stone Age, if you can't check whether they are available in a smaller store nearby. After years of campaigning for the introduction of such an availability query (and years of being told that it was technically impossible *lol*), I was very happy when it was finally implemented. But if it increasingly provides incorrect information, its usefulness is called into question...

Hello everyone
Thanks for your feedback. I agree with you, the availabilities should be correct, otherwise the function makes no sense. I will pass the problem on to the people responsible so that it can be fixed. Best wishes and have a nice Monday! Nicole
