Expired Confection
So, today we're doing inventory.
Last Saturday, I went in the candy room and cleaned it out for said inventory. I also found about $1000 (give or take a few) worth of expired confection, 90% of which was soda, vitamin water, and Fuze drinks. We destroyed all of the expired crap last night. How much does your store lose in expired confection right before inventory?

We go through it every week, it amazes me how much money we lose on crap that doesn't sell. You would think corp would keep track of it , but no, that would make sense. Slim Jims never sell, always have to feild destroy them. Oh, check the dates of the clearance candy , most of it is over a year old.

I got sick and tired of looking at that crap, and taking up so much room. My new SM destroyed all of it, and there's so much room back there now! You're right about Slim Jim... I bought one the other day and saw it was expired. I don't think anyone goes through our confection on a set basis. We had expired canned sodas from last year that I found. It's disgusting!

never did an inventory since i been at my store (knock on wood), but all of our foods and candy, and magazines our sm lets us have when she/he destroyes it. all sodas and juices go back to coca cola man for credit.

we check the expiration dates on our candy all the time. every couple weeks we throw away a handful of bags of chips and thats it. we're pretty good at keeping items with closer experation dates in front of their rows so they sell sooner.
sometimes when i'm lucky i get to "throw away" a bag of expired chips or 2.

You don't have to destroy them, the coke company will exchange any expired product. Just label them and put a sign on them for the coke company to pick them up.

I think the employees should be able to take it home, but I have seen people get fired for it here. So we just tear up the packages and throw it away.

We've had the expired 2 liters in the back for over a year now. My old SM had them labeled... the coke guys put the cokes in the back themselves when they deliver their product. There was plenty of time for my old SM to pick it up and give us store credit. My opinion, it was sheer laziness, and there's no point in counting shit that we're gonna lose money on anyway.
