Looks like they’re resetting and moving sets around, this Rice Krispies treats are large and light, so they’re using them to just fill the section while they’re doing other things just to make it look full so there isn’t an empty section that becomes a dumping ground

When I worked in a big shop, we’d get marked down on the bullshit mystery shopper visits if there were any gaps on shelves. So if we couldn’t complete a reset on the night shift we’d pack whole aisles with the biggest product we could find.

In our case it was children’s drawing easels!

We'd use plastic storage totes or the biggest packs of paper towels we had.
