Actually, it *seems* like we've got this issue figured out. Appreciate the replies, even the jokey ones.
Basically I need to get product and pricing data from Giant Eagle for a side project. They were working with us for a while, allowing us to gather that data in the stores (Vince did that a few months back and gathered info for about 3300 items), but he went back to do it again this week and was rather briskly ejected. We have a lead on a company that has an existing agreement with GE, and it seems they may be able to expand our database for us. I want to be up around 10k-12k items, so that was the leap here. Thought maybe if a BPer had local connections we could work something out that way. Still open to that of course, but right now I'll run with whatever works.
One way or another, I want to be off disability as soon as possible, and turning more of BP's ad money right back into BP. Health be damned, I just require self-sufficiency.
