It seems lately, in the days right before Black Friday, we've been having people grab pull tags for furniture items on the Black Friday 6-hour sale ad, take them home with them, and then come back to the swamp around 9-ish or so on Black Friday, expecting to pick up their furniture item.
For these items, we make special colored pull tags (shelf labels attached to pieces of construction paper). This is because these items are staged outside behind the store, so when a cashier sees one of these colored tags, they know to tell the customer to drive behind the store to have the item loaded up. Actually, for that morning we do all carryouts behind the store; for anything not on the special sale the cashier calls the backroom and somebody gets the item out of the backroom.
So by grabbing our pull tags early, they're screwing up our counts, and possibly themselves as well. Sometimes we run completely out of the item before the idiot who took the tag two days early comes in.
