Time to stock up on nuts.

has anyone used this program? how does it work?

do you have them weight the empty container when you enter the store so that you're not paying for the container's weight?

Yes, take it to the front and they'll weigh it and write down the weight. Then when you checkout they'll tare it.

Just had a terrible experience at the local Bulk Barn in Winnipeg St Vital location. Manager is terrible. Will never give this store our business again.

Wouldn’t let you stack?

Nope. Wouldn't accept online coupon. Said it needed to be printed. I've shown online coupon many times in the past. But manager tonight would not accept.

Good one!

Wait so they made you pour everything back out of your own containers? For contamination reasons the product can’t be sold afterwards. Should’ve stood your ground. Shame on an eco friendly store to require a printed coupon.

It was my GF physically at the store and she called me from the store, where I spoke to the manager on the phone. My GF just ended up paying the full price. Not what I would have done but she's not comfortable with conflict. When she got home we both agreed we won't be going back to the store ever again.

I would email a complaint with the point gbill wrote above about the eco friendly thing.

That is strange. I’ve only used coupons shown on my phone and I have never had any problems.

We've just decided to never give that store our business again. Sometimes we prefer voting with our wallets.

Same here up until last night.

I'd contact head office and complain because it sounds like you encountered a franchisee who needs to be told what's right. They might send you a credit to make amends
