Well, working for Meijer for a number of years, I know they don't hold any
of that stuff for employees, unless the Toy department people could. Being
in the Service area, nope. I don't know of the damaged goods thing either,
because I have had a lot of variation in terms of discounts. I had a Gungan
Sub at Meijer on Carpenter Road in Ann Arbor, it was ripped open, it was at
50% off (25.00) and I got another 50% off, bringing it down to 12.50. I
think it depends on the manager. : /
