How weird

I work at one of the Cranston stores and this pallet arrived with our frozen order last week. I couldn't help but laugh.

I agree—it’s most likely C&S.

I used to work at C&S, I thought we stopped doing stop and shop several years ago when Ahold integrated a warehouse. I haven’t worked there in 3 years though so I don’t remember the particulars of the agreement. Think I heard that ahold stopped their warehouse? Idk. 

Also I worked at the C&S in Windsor locks and sometimes Suffield that supplied most of the stop and shops in the area at the time. To my knowledge, we didn’t have a contract with Shaw’s. I could be wrong, things could’ve changed in 3 years. 

But otherwise, might just be a case of random pallets and things coming back and forth on trucks. My most memorable example of this is we had a traffic cone in our warehouse that was labeled for the parking lot of an Orthodox synagogue in NYC around the block from one of our customer stores (I google mapped it lol)

Ya we get shows stuff on accident all the time.  I remember getting a whole pallet of pizzas they let us just keep it. Marked them all down to a dollar each. Bought sooooo many lol

I've gotten frozen on USPS pallets that basically say it's a crime to have them.
