CVS Allows You to Unlock Cases with Their App
Oh god it’s happening everyone! Finally! Relief from the locked cases at CVS! As you know from a previous article Walgreens had said that locking up products was hurting sales! Hell, in one case Walmart was even sued for locking up certain products and was playing with the idea of allowing customers to unlock cases on their own using their app but CVS may have beat them to the finish line on that idea!
Unfortunately, shoplifting is a real issue which has led to many stores locking up a variety of products like laundry detergent, toothpaste, deodorant, etc…! What’s interesting about the entire situation is makeup and skincare aren’t much of an issue in my stores. Everything is good to go and unlocked however, everyday essentials apparently hot tickets and those are locked down.
But FINALLY we may have a solution! CVS has rolled out the ability to unlock cases and select your own products in three of their stores. Sure, that isn’t a lot but hopefully, if these “test” stores work out we’ll see more of this from other locations and hopefully, other stores like Walmart and Target.
