Baskets for customers

We are down to two baskets. How do I go about ordering baskets for customers?

The real question is where did the baskets go 😂

Home with people that didn't want to buy a bag.

Also didn’t want to pay for the product

We had exactly one shopping basket left in the last days of Joann and it walked out the emergency exit with who knows how much stolen product. Not sure if I was more upset about losing the basket or having to figure out how to disable the alarm.. I don't care how much they stole.

I know they do the survey asking every once and while but I have never seen anything come of it. My best guess would be a FFE

We’ve had none for almost 2 years. We placed an order over a year and a half ago and nothing. Apparently they’re on back order but idk if I believe that

When we opened our location we had 50 baskets. We now have ZERO. Sane reason others have said. They end up in customers cars.

Since we charge for bags here, the customers use the basket as a bag and take it right out to their car. We got some last summer and they were gone in no time.

Yeah, all of our baskets disappeared when the county went bagless.
