Yes, I think other types of stores are better at it. But the stores that are only groceries, are there any that use that?
Comment on I walked all over the damn store looking for butter
Deello@lemm.ee 1 month agoSome stores do just that. I know I’ve done it for Target, Walmart, Home Depot, and Lowe’s.

Bloom did it 15ish years ago. They even had an electronic kiosk where you could look up your item. (I’m not sure if Bloom the grocery store still exists.)
I’ve seen other places have a rotating list on the cart handle, which listed where common items would be.

Home Depot has their interiors mapped out on Google Maps.
It’s fantastic. Since they did that I’m pretty sure I’ve never spent more then ten minutes in one unless I wanted to.

I get mileage outta this one in particular too. Still sometimes get turned around and bamboozled, overall I’ve kinda learned to treat the info as more like…the Platonic ideal of a perfectly modeled store, lol. The many changes and failures and surprises just make me even more grateful that any of that info is in there and works well. Really convenient.
