The type of shelving at the grocery store that I really dislike are the ones that are not suitable for the products on display. For instance big cartons of juice that they pack so tightly in a rather small shelf that you had to practically squeeze the carton out. Then if you sort of changed your mind then you would have a problem to get the carton back into place again. Not sure what others feel about this, but to me, it is sure annoying. I really don’t know how those employees managed to shove those cartons or boxes into tight  shelves in the first place. Guess one needs to have the right special skill to get cartons off tight shelves , huh?

It is not like they cannot get different display shelves for different product types and sizes. There is an online store that purveys all sorts of display  or showcase options - gondola shelving, wall mounts uprights, gondola and peg baskets, peg hooks, and more - mfried.com. They have been selling and installing gondola shelving for nearly 20 years now and has become the largest stocking distributor of gondola displays in the Northeast of the United States. So no surprise how they happen to offer many showcase options.

They don’t seem to be showing the prices of the gondola shelves right on their website but you can ask for a price quote quite easily just by filling up a simple form right from the product information page. That way I think you will be able to get the exact customized information that you need to know.

Proper display shelves would really make shopping experience a lot more pleasant ( well besides cheaper prices and also great customer service that is). I for one would definitely appreciate it if I don’t have to work hard just to get a carton of juice easily off the shelf.

A couple of weeks ago, while shopping for the weekly groceries, I wondered off to the personal hair care area in the shopping centre and saw Garnier’s home hair dyes on sale. Just out of whim I grabbed a box. Since my hair is black I got the the most blond shade I could find. The result would be darkish brown.

The last time I ever dyed my hair was when I was…. 15?? That is a very long time ago. That time my late mom did it for me. Now, I’d have to ask my significant other to lend me a hand if I need help.

At home, I opened the box, checked the content. The same sort of things you’d expect in any home hair dye boxes I suppose. 1 bottle and a packet of creams for mixing, hair conditioner for after you washed the dye out, and also a pair of plastic disposable gloves.

The box is still waiting for me on the dresser top. I don’t dare to dye my hair just yet. Thinking perhaps it is better for me just to go to the dresser to do it.

I know I will do it one day, but will have to wait and see then.
