Bingo 5towns

[ushdadude]

chulant was hot. Took it home (5 minutes drive) and ate it. Didn't need to reheat. And they fill it up as much as you want. Don't need to take a full lb.

when i was there at 1130 he said they only have prefilled and cold. maybe earlier they do it for you

[notyettaken]

Ok people, enough shop wherever you want. Unless you have constructive information or find a deal you want to share please enough with the comparing and the bashing. If someone wants to shop around for a better grocery receipt. I promise they will/already did shop and bingo. I think we all can agree that for a long time we didn’t have a new grocery open so it’s exciting. Now Let the stores figure out how to get the customers to shop as opposed to what it used to be that we had to manage with what we have

wait, we still need a halacha discussion

Makes sense. At about 10 he had about half a deep pan left and he said that that's the end of it.

But if Bingo can get POTF ice cream for Lakewood, why don't they bring it to Brooklyn???  I'm willing to pay the regular price for it.

Same reason why 0 stores in Brooklyn carry POTF milk, when it significantly tastier. Vhamavin, yovin.

POTF ice cream is currently on sale for $7.49 in kolsave

I always assumed that Mehadrim has an exclusive deal with Bingo (BP) and that's why they don't carry anything else, but that's just an assumption.

Loss leader to compete with Bingo's deal.

[yungermanchik]

I believe POTF has a deal not to sell their milk or products in Brooklyn. When they opened they did it as a service to areas who were not getting Cholov Yisroel. They did not want to compete with the existing companies. That is why you don't find their mk anywhere in New York, except for Stop and Shop because they are not based here.

It's a chidush that KS is able to get their ice cream.

Is it a loss leader? CLE regular price I believe is $7.99

[aygart]

Was on for Thursday night

So what was tomeha about it?

[WayBackMachine]

It’s time for 5ts to stop complaining. Just saw bingos chicken breast prices. 4.99 lb. Lakewood bingo sells for 6.99..

yesterday in lakewood

The only brand of buckets ice cream I've ever seen it their Brooklyn store is Mehadrin.
So I don't buy ice cream there. 
So the conversation is about uniform pricing, and it's been said above that specialty items cater to the local market, But if Bingo can get POTF ice cream for Lakewood, why don't they bring it to Brooklyn???  I'm willing to pay the regular price for it.

What in the world?? I've bought POTF bucket ice cream at Bingo BP a few times. Not a major selection there but 2/3 flavors for sure.

You realize that they are talking about cutlets and your picture is ground chicken

I've never seen anything but Mehadrin, not even Kleins, and I would buy that.
I'll look for POTF now that I know it may be there.

Bingo carries various brands American and Israeli but they don't carry Kleins ice cream

[satturn]

I was told by a salesman associated with Bingo that the reason for no Klein ice cream there is that when Bingo started with its first store, Kleins was pressured by its other customers to refuse to sell to Bingo. Bingo's response was, if you don't sell me now, I will never buy from you in the future. I understand Kleins suffered immensely from their poor decision.

IINM, this is incorrect. Bingo wanted a significant discount, and Kleins doesn't do discounts. They price their stuff uniformly to everyone.

No they don't. It's more expensive locally than it is in Lakewood.

That says nothing about the wholesale price. Retailers have their own cheshbonos.

So if GG pays the same in Lakewood as they do here, why is it so much more expensive here?

Target also charges different prices based on location btw, it's not uncommon in the retail industry at all.
