Have they taken down those annoying aisle blocking displays? I’m guessing no.
==========+=======

Our local Weis did. Walked around ten minutes or so with that “something’s different” vibe.  It finally dawned on me the aisles looked so much bigger.  Then, at last, I realized there was so much room because all those annoying cardboard displays had been removed.  A silver lining!

Well good for them!

Personally I refuse to buy anything vendors put in those aisle blocking displays. My local store even uses them near and in the enter and exit lobby - sometimes so much that disabled people and motorized wheelchairs have difficulty getting in and out of the store.

Anytime I see them going that far I call the manager and tell them there’s two way traffic here and this is a bridge too far with your dang displays, and point out how difficult he is making it for his elderly and disabled customers to get in and out with shopping carts or wheelchairs. I even bring him to the lobby to show him what I’m talking about just to make sure all the customers are overhearing me complain so that he will relent and at least make the displays not overly intrusive.

Those displays are near the top of my list of pet peeves - even above cashiers who build pyramids with bills, receipts and change - and then expect you to use one hand to retrieve and distribute that to wallet and pocket without it all dropping on the floor while you have to hold your bags with the other hand.
