Keep in mind, this is not a Buc-ees trashing thread.
So some of you may remember last week I posted about finding a EZ fill feeder ( the ones Buc-ees sell ) Well, I had to turn to the green screen and its 82K members o find out which stores had them. The reason I had to do this is because they have no phone number you can call and check to see if they have it, also their website is no help either. I even ask 2 different people at the store in Bastrop if the could call and check inventory at other stores. Long story short, no was the answer. I was informed by the green screen that the Waller store had them, and sure enough they did, well while I was there I happened to see 2 managers walking thru the store. I stopped them and ask them if I could ask them a question, well they of course said yes.I explained my situation to them and the fact there was no way to call or check on inventory, or get one store to contact another. I also explained to them that a good number of people don't live just a few miles away such as myself. The only answer he could give me was on the web page there is a complaint form and the owners actually read it.
So here is my question/possible solution to this.
If everyone that reads this would post up some kind of solution to this, or share a similar experience with Buc-ees, that I could send a link to this thread to the company and maybe they could see we are 82K strong and most of us do stop at a Buc-ees as we are traveling, and not just during hunting season. Maybe then they would create a drop down on their web page for popular items and which stores had them. For most of us it would be Feeders, corn, batteries, spinner plates... you see what I am getting at. I know they can't do this for every item in the store, but a site like TBH and a Texas based company like Buc-ees, maybe something could be worked out.
I was always taught that if you are going in to see the big dogs with a complaint, you need to have a solution to offer up as well.
If a majority think i am way off base with this, then I will not waste any time or energy on it. Again, this is not a bashing thread, just trying to make life a little easier for the ones who don't live close enough to make a quick run by.
