Below are mitigation efforts that will be in place as stores resume limited in-store public access:

  • Stores will limit the number of customers in a store at any time, allowing no more than 25 people (employees and customers) in any location and further restricting numbers of customers in smaller stores.
  • The first hour each store is open each day will be reserved for customers at high risk for COVID-19, including those 65 years of age and older. Voluntary compliance from all customers is encouraged in the interest of protecting the health and safety of our most vulnerable community members.
  • Customers and employees will be required to wear masks and practice social distancing, guided by signage throughout the stores.
  • Signage will also direct customers to follow one-way patterns to avoid cross-traffic and encourage them to refrain from touching products unless they intend to buy them.
  • Store employees will perform enhanced and frequent cleaning and disinfecting, and store hours will be modified to ensure appropriate time for cleaning and restocking.
  • All sales are final, and no returns will be accepted until further notice.

Each location has been professionally sanitized, and Plexiglas was installed at registers to provide a physical barrier between employees and customers at checkout. All employees are being provided masks, gloves, and frequent opportunities to wash hands.

Stores reopening to limited public access will continue offering curbside pickup to the best of their ability, as they operate with limited staff.

The PLCB will also continue accepting online orders at the website here.
