menards and speed

ok went a 1mile up the road to get more speed energy today and it was not on the shelf by rip energy like its been so i looked around and found 16oz 4packs of unlead and ethanol bye the front door when u walk in with 2 faceing on the shelf and on a end cap with 4 faceings with red tags on them dont know what that means but they wore $5.98 a 4 pack for 16oz then i found the 4packs of 12oz fuel and octane on top of the 15 foot high rack bye the rip energy had to get someone with a ladder to get them down for me and they wore $5.00 a 4 pack for 12oz i guess what im trying to say it seem like they are lose some shelf space they use to have 2 shelf 4foot long but this is what i got
octane 12oz 4pack $5.00
fuel 12oz 4pack $5.00
ethanol 16oz 4pack $5.98
unlead 16oz 4pack $5.98
tolal $23.72

I would guess that Menard Sr. (big supporter of Robby's racing efforts everywhere) is an investor in SPEED - hopefully that keeps the drink safely in the Menard Chain.

Everything is okay, It is happening in my menards aswell (Omaha Nebraska). I do believe they are getting ride of the 12oz and just sticking with the 16oz. The 12oz are $5 and the 16oz have always been 5.98 at mine. Also when i go to mine they always have the speed moved. Sometimes on shelf and sometimes on end cap, it prob has to do with the ordering they do. I bet the get a large pallet of speed rather than a couple of cases. Which if they have a large amount they will be placed in an area with more room, and when they start selling them they move them to a smaller space to make the shelf look full and than they fill that bigger space with what they have overstock of. I work in the grocery side when i was younger.. thats all it is...

Not applicable to this discussion but I was at the Glamis Beach Store today and SPEED was on closeout for $2.50 per 12 oz can. Down from $3.05 a can. Even though it is expensive, I hope they keep selling it there.

I hope its doing good. I can't order speed online everytime I'm thirsty tho, and for those of us who don't have menards around, or another store that carries it.
I know it takes time, but this stuff needs to get out into stores.

We have it in SaveMart and a local Shell here in Visalia. However, I notice the Shell still has the old logo drinks. I do not know if it means that Robby made a lot more of the old logos than I thought, or that the Shell/local distributor is not selling a lot of them. But glad I get me 6 a week at the shell.

Had a friend who works for a major distributorship do the same, no response. Then I wrote and got no response.
