I am not aware of any current deals, but This is nothing new. They have been doing this for years and each time they get hung up somewhere and all negotiations are off, just to start again later.
Each store is in control of their budget, and schedules service based on the store volume. I have some that are once a month and some that are 3 times a week. Store manager has the final approval and while corporate will say here is a list of companies that we have screened, it is just a guide and nothing else.
Bottom line, is if you provide the service they need and have pricing that fits their budget, you have an account. I have been told of many statewide and national companies trying to get in at my stores and they just can't. Manager says so that's why.
