Galen West’s strategy: “Lookie dem low prices… 2L soda for 68¢… woweee!!1!” REALITY: Zero stock, ZERO SHIPMENTS for ENTIRE SALE.

This is why Galen West is a card-carrying member of the Parasite Class.
And yes, I confirmed the no-shipments, zero-stock with the store manager. 5 days and counting with no stock so far, when the sale started there was maybe 12-24 bottles for 128,000 residents in the city.
PC Cola is a house brand. No-one else carries it.
And the rain cheque limits you to two. I like to use the self-checkout and stock up by making multiple checkouts.
PC brand stuff is sold at like 3 different stores in BC.
All owned by the same parent company, and thereby Galen Weston, and they do not do price matching between those stores.
There is a Wholesale Club in the city over, I tried to get something else from them one time, where their price was nearly double that of the RCSS I normally go to. They refused to match the price.
I knew they were all the same parent company, I was unaware they would not match.
