I moved from Michigan to North Carolina last Summer. I miss shopping at Meijers soo much. The biggest place to shop in my area is Walmart. When I lived in Michigan if Meijers had dented can goods they would mark them down. Here they just leace them on the shelf. Sometimes you have to licked there the can to find one not dented. I thought you couldn't seell dented cans at regular price. I also the other night went to buy some Rod Pretzels Walmart brand. Everybag had broken pretzels and I don't me one you had to look to see the ones noty broke. I feel like complaining but not being from here I don't know if there are laws that consumers should be able to buy a good product at regular price. If it is dented or damaged then shouldn't it be marked down?
By chance did you write that post on a smartphone? I mean the OP. Mine does that for me - changes misspelled words to something else entirely.
Anyway, you have the choice whether or not to buy the product - and if it's obviously broken you shouldn't buy it. But if the store doesn't want to give you a discount it doesn't have to. You don't expect every chip in the bag to be unbroken, right?
I think returned stuff is sold in places like Marshalls, Ross..
And freight damaged goods are sold ... see Google results: https://goo.gl/qzUMMJ
People looking to buy pallets of merchandise can, unfortunately, find themselves repeatedly scammed. Often, the buyer receives a pallet only to find that a high percentage of the goods cannot be sold due to much higher than expected damage. The most reliable way to separate the scam companies from legitimate pallet companies is to look up the company through the Better Business Bureau.
Pallet companies operate by getting goods from major retailers. If you find merchandise from a retailer you'd like to buy in pallet form, ask the manager which pallet companies the retailer uses and how to get in touch with those companies for pallet purchases. This is the best way to find pallets of very specific goods.
