That time our local shop's big sale turned into a total mess
Last Saturday, Comic Cave in Springfield had their 40% off back issue sale, but they only had one person working the register. The line went out the door and around the corner, and I heard at least three people give up and leave after waiting over an hour. It just felt like a huge missed chance to bring in new fans or make regulars happy. Has your go-to store ever dropped the ball on a big event like that?

Sounds like they just didn't plan for the crowd (which is a basic mistake).

Ever wonder if they planned it that way to limit how much stock they sold? A huge line looks like a hit event but saves them money on the deep discounts... just feels like a cheap trick that backfires on good will.
