Default Re: What do you think of the wording of this email?

I think it sounds like they are in the process of changing the policy but is has not been made official yet. I can see where managers would complain that buying things by the case that you just throw away and don't use just for the overage is abusing the system. I mean when someone doesn't even leave the store with what they bought and leaves a case of ky by the door for anyone to take then it is pretty obvious they aren't using the product right? It is against the rules to buy for others or for businesses in bulk and it would hold true not to buy in bulk just to give away to others right? It does kind of draw attention to the fact that we sometimes find loopholes to get what we want when it really isn't the original intent of the stores or manufacturers. Please don't blast me, I don't think anyone did anything wrong, I did my fair share of stocking up when there was a stacking coupon policy but it is a fine line and we do overdo it sometimes and we do draw attention to it sometimes. I can see where they can say it is abusing the policy or even breaking the policy when you just buy in bulk to give or throw away. Don't they have lower prices to just break even as a military perk for service members and they don't make a profit? I could be wrong there but I thought that was their deal. I would use the coupons now because it does sound like the policy may change soon or God forbid, they start to limit quantities on all things sold, coupons or not, to prevent abuse. Now that would HURT. I buy everything in bulk!!
