WOSdrummer99 Posted July 10, 2023 Report Share Posted July 10, 2023 I just ran into the regional stocker of all books and mags for Walmart. She said they may be in the back. But she has to do all books in all stores 1st. Then she'll start stocking mag later in the week. Told me and another guy that was was for it too. Try back at the end of the week. Gonna make the rounds to the other stores in orange now. I'll report If I find it KF89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleeagle Posted July 13, 2023 Report Share Posted July 13, 2023 Checked Walgreens in Jasper. They let me look into the big box with the magazines they had not put on display yet. No DCTFM in the store. I always get mine at this place. I think someone is lying about when they were shipped. not at Walmart either. 7/12/23 89Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted July 13, 2023 Report Share Posted July 13, 2023 I was told it's in the Walmart in Baytown on 146. The mail folks are just slow nowadays, that's not DCTF fault whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just agreeing to the slow process of the stores putting out the magazine. I expect Walmart in Jasper to have it today or tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purpleeagle Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 I might be that the Distributors cannot afford to take back high costing magazines like DCTFM and the stores cannot afford to eat the unsold magazines. Seems that only companies like CVS, wan mart, and Walgreens can afford too take a loss. Wal mart in Jasper has moved the magazine section to the back of the stere and it is about 1/5 the size it use to be. might be a growing problem.

purpleeagle Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 Went to Center this morning. Regional distributor put magazines out yesterday. No DCTFM in Center at CVS or Wal Mart’s. DCTFM obviously knew about this problem and chose not to pass it on to us. I give up! 89Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have used this to their advantage. And let fans know they were in short supply before the day the trucks left out. Many more people would've subscribed if they would've known about this. Then they wouldn't have to print extra copies just to lose money. Print media is dead. Funny I still see SI swimsuit edition out on the racks. Even the one with Martha Stewart on the cover. Really, who's buying that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there's money to be made there. 89Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
