Actually I thought we were good to go with Price Cutter?

Up until last year they had "No Gun" signs up, and after several months of telling them we would shop elsewhere they took the signs down, and even sent emails out to some indicating that they were now gun friendly. You can still see the outline where the old "No Gun" stickers were on the Springfield stores.

With what the OP stated, I sent them an email to verify they haven't changed. No response, as of today, Monday morning.

I received an email Monday from a store director, the email was sent to the corporate offices, who stated there was no corporate policy prohibiting OC or CCW in PriceCutter stores.

that is some good research. Is it possible you can post that email/ policy/ statement so others can print out. Even though I don't leave anywhere near there, but it would be great for others to have more than a "say so" answer.

Not to make the manager look bad... but its nice if they have a copy

I'd like to have a copy of that email too, since when my mom lives in a city w/ those stores.

the best thing to do is simply hand the manager what you were planning to buy and then leave. This way you get your point across and the manager is left holding his lost profit.

These.
Make it very clear, immediate, & undeniable that they are losing money.
In a longer-running quest to get a particular store or chain to un-post, having people sending copies of their receipts for goods purchased at other stores is a very good tactic.

This is NOT the new response

Just to keep a record this is the email that was received back in December 2010 after efforts to get the signs down at Price Cutter.

XXXXX,
Thank you for taking the time to contact us. This issue has been discussed
further and we understand your position on this. We are re-evaluating this
policy and have taken down the signs that were posted. We will continue to
discuss this but the signs are down.

Thank You,
Ron

I can't find it right now but there was also a positive letter from HyVee (hadn't been built here at the time)
