Suggestion
Box
Compiled
by Carolyn Maroney
Q. Why was my edible
rosemary taxed? A.
All plants are taxed in compliance with the law.
Q. I think the 6-packs of
soda should have
the price of the entire pack on them. A. Thank you for your
suggestion.
This remains one of our point-of-sale challenges. We are working on it.
Q. Can we get a thickening
agent for canning?
A. We have citric acid available in the bulk section.
Q. Can we keep more spring
H2Os cold besides
just Saratoga?
We used to put some in the small cooler along the back wall. A. We’ll
try to keep the others available in the refrigerator.
Q. Can you guys make more
gluten-free baked
goods? The homemade ones like the rice flour scones? A. We’re
glad you
like the rice flour scones. We’re looking for some new recipes.
Q. Turn a car space near the
entrance into
a bike space with a good rack. That would be great! A. We
should have a
dedicated and elevated platform for the bikes when the new rack
arrives. It
will be close to the door.
Q. Keep flyers from
advertisers from being
thrown out! Every week I come they are gone. A. Our member
worker who
de-clutters this space generally does not throw things out. He may move
things around
to straighten the space. Flyers from local sources are given priority.
Q. Lower your prices! A.
Wholesale
prices have increased and we have not changed our margins. We expect
our prices
to rise further as a result of spiraling energy costs.
Q. Commendation: Debbie is
the most efficient
cashier I’ve dealt with in the 10+ years I’ve been coming here. Keep
her happy
and here! A. Yes we like her a lot. She’s awesome.
Q. We should carry Burt’s
Bees facial kits.
A. We have tried them in the past without success. You
may special order
one through the HaBA department.
Q. Valet parking? A. At
this
point, it is not feasible for us.
Q. How about selling the Schenectady Gazette?
Much more independent coverage on local stories than TV. Thanks. A.
Thank
you. We will look into carrying the Gazette.
Q. Can you get frozen
cornbread pizza crust?
They are so good! A. Which brand are you looking for?
Q. Please, blueberries
without anything
else, just dried blueberries, no sweeteners. A. Our efforts in
finding
dried berries have yielded the sweetened varieties that you find in the
bulk
section. The non-organic blueberries are not as sweet as the organic
ones.
Perhaps the manufacturers need to keep the sugar levels up in order to
retard spoilage.
We’ll keep looking for dried berries without sweeteners. Have you got
any
leads?
Q. I love the Rock Hill
bread so much, but
it’s covered in mold within 2–3 days of purchase no matter what the
date on it
is. A. It is fresh bread with no preservatives, and it was
summer. You
can try freezing some for later use.
Q. Make the café
wireless. A. We
are certainly considering it as we expand. We must determine where this
stands
in our list of priorities.
