Sorry i missed the second part of this.
For the door crashers, it's something we want feed back on. We stopped it for a few years and the feed back we got from our local farmers specifically was they were disappointed because they couldn't show up until Friday or Saturday as they had to tend to the crops and cattle we all locally enjoy. Many of our local farmers here in Southern Ontario do not have phones or internet either. There feed back was to re-add the door crashers to allow some of our great local farmers the abilities to get some of the deals as well. With St. Jacobs farmers market right in our backyard, we want to do the best we can to support these people that feed us.
Thank you so much for the feed back, again we will be talking about this as well for future sales.

You'll never make everyone happy. At least with having some each day everyone gets a chance. And if you're lucky enough to be able to show up any day you want, you can pick which day works best for you. The flyer was clear on each days door crashers.

Unless you're interested in a couple of the items and one is on sale one day and another the next day and it's a couple hour drive to get there each day because it's in store only. If they want to set items aside for certain customers, as seems to be the case, that's fine. Don't list those items in the flyer. Have a 'farmer appreciation evening' or something with those sales if that's the target. Everyone has limited time these days. If they really want it, they'll come get it on the first day. Either way the store makes the sale.
 
I’m happy you guys are taking feedback in a positive direction. I’m 2 hours away. I can only come to the store once- and I was there Thursday so I could also support the farmers at St.Jacobs market
I work retail and my store tried the daily door crashers and had the same reaction. People don’t want to make multiple trips to the store they want to go once and get everything in one trip.
Nothing wrong with 5 flats per pal per day or max 10 boxes etc in my opinion but everyone will have a different view.
Someone should buy that cashier a dinner.
 
Thoughts:
Have a PAL and a non PAL checkout ?

Keep flats of shells under the tent.
Customer can pay inside and show their receipt outside- saves a lot of store space and lugging
 
Great to see you guys today! i will post more pics later tonight

I had no problem getting all the ammo I wanted. No waiting and excellent service. Could not believe how many guns were getting sold on Thursday. Today the line up was less and in and our in 30 min. Wait all year for this sale.
 
Very happy with my experience today - thank you to the team at the store. Drove 55 mins for a purchase pickup. Folks were very friendly, and my personal appreciation to the gal who was at the cash. She was running her tail off supporting customers, CPF queries, and multiple walkie-talkie calls from staff.

Regardless of hurdles and hiccups experienced I’m happy to see a firearms retailer offer everyone an opportunity to drive industry related business, much appreciated discounts, and showing enthusiasm for the hobby.
 
Just want to say thanks, I ordered a scope on sale for a great deal and then you guys allowed me to add to my order to get the free shipping and refunded me the original shipping charge, all while you were super busy in the store.

Appreciate the service!!!

You could allocate some quantities of the door crashers for each day.
That way everyone has a chance at them, while being available each day.
