how difficult gets for you the bigger the store is?
Guys, I need some tips, the more the store gets bigger the more dificult gets to have all the stock, the only way I see thaat could be easier for me is to sell twice the same product but I dont think is going to be a good plan because I will need alooooot of shevels to have every single product twice. do you guys have any tips that could help? thanks :steamthumbsup:

You need to have 2, 3, 4 boxes of stock as you get bigger or you will run out. Lot of products I have 4 shelves of and some I have 2 shelves of. Depneds on the product and size.

Things like Flour, Cereal, Rice, Chips, Potatos, Toilet paper, coffee are 4 shelves of stock. Small items like oil, pepper, salt, ketcup, honey, hand soap, cleaner, etc are 2 shelves.

If you do not increase your stock as things sell out you will be running around trying to restock during the day and keep up. I prefer to stock enough product so I don't run out during the day and only have to stock in the morning before opening.

ye so that small products that sells in big numbers you just have one shelv, the rest of the products that sells like in numbers of 2-3-4-6 you put 4 shelvs? but your store must be huge to have 4 shelvs just for one specific product. I have to try at least 2 shelvs per item that sells products in small numbers on the shelv

It is medium size. I am level 35 or so and have all but 1 expansion available to me and all the licenses but 1.

And by 4 shelves I dont mean 4 full shelves each cabinet has 4 shelves on it when I say shelf I man 1 shelf of the cabinet not 4 cabinets.

Start slowly. The products that sell out double it. until it doesnt sell out.

I have build my store like this

https://youtu.be/WSAZJyTOSeo

I have to restock in the morning and then it's enough for the day. I have all the shelves that were empty in that video already full with new items and it takes 20-30 mins in the morning to restock everything. That's why I stopped playing until restock workers are implemented.

Before getting expansion for store make some money, don't try to get loan, you don't need to get all the licences you can pass some of them and get them later. till 5-6 expansion you don't need storage expansion don' spent money for that. I am at 8 expansion and I don't got storage yet cause I wait restocker update. fill the all shelves at morning its enough for the day. play as a cashier cause you need to get npc cashiers. Look at what need for product shelves/refri/freezer ? till mid game don;'t get freezer licences, I am at lvl 40 and have 20 shelves / 14 refrigerator / 3 checkout / 8 freezer / and 50K+ money for the next update.
I will be last advice don't rush got joy to play and no stress :)

Oh my god. thats insane, so you dont expect to play until you have restock workers are implemented, because you reach a point that you cant be doing taking even more time 40 min to make a damn of a restock. makes sense :O

omg, so basically you guys that are way more further in the game than I do reached a point that you cant have much fun because most of the time you will spend will be restocking right? :crtstressed: I dont want to get at that point, I really want to work as a cashier aswell, not always as a restock guy, otherwise this is a restock store simulator not a supermarket simulator, now I get what DarkMJ said.

The more shelves you have, the more you can work as a cashier.

I have four shelves of everything, and six shelves of chicken, toilet paper, and potatoes.

Yes..it takes me awhile to stock. That's most of the gameplay.

At level 38 I have every product 4x to get through the day without running out. And then I still have to keep an eye on some stuff (chickens, potatoes, toilet papter) and restock it throughout the day.

I restock the entire store every morning. It takes a very long time. You can either push through and 90% of your gameplay is restocking, or wait for the restocker update.

People who never played gas station simulator before this doesn’t realize how stocking is part of the game. There’s no stocker on that game and you can hire for multiple jobs. There’s a reason for that it’s harder to implement stocking and organizing to be automated when it’s not an automated game.

As for stocking in this game it’s not hard. It all depends on how you play and organize. Don’t keep buying licenses if you can’t handle more product in the store or don’t wanna stock so much.

Stock before you open time don’t start till you open. If you have enough shelves and organized well you can do cashier the whole day. Than stock next morning.
Swisspike Mar 11, 2024 @ 8:56pm 
Peeps complain about not having a stocker are the same peeps that complain that it is 600 miles from San Diego to San Francisco.

The JOURNEY IS THE GAMEPLAY. Stocking shelves, whether you like it or not, IS a substantial part of the gameplay.

ahhh ok, so the shelves will guarantee that you can easly work as a cashier just needing to refill the shelves on the next day. ok get it

Some of the custemers say I don't find blabla I don't care them at this stage of the game. You don't loose reputation for now maybe only 1SP point thats all. fill the shelves at morning before open the shop. and work as an cashier you need that casier points to get the 4th npc cashier.

All store expansions but one available at level 35? All licenses but one by level 35? We must be playing different games. Lol
