Event-related sterility is cost effective compared to the use of expiration dates since “outdated” packaging material does not have to be removed and thrown away causing items to be rewrapped.

All were a lot great ideas during the day of presentations; however there were a few that stood out to me the most that had the most viable business concepts. The first one I will be talking about will be Shooter’s Warehouse. Shooter’s Ware house stood out to me because it was something new and exciting and I never been to or seen anything like it before. But it wasn’t because it was new there was a lot of thought of that really pushed it into being a viable business concept. The team really hit what Kawasaki called the “Sweet Spot”(AOS pg9).

i thought to myself, "why wouldn't they just throw it away if it's expired?". we continued to search through the boxes, and ms.Helmick determined whether or not those items. I then asked her the same question as mentioned before, as to why they wouldn't just throw this stuff away? "most of these items are perfectly fine, the expiration date is more for stores and they're sell by date m if anything." she said. we continued searching throw the boxes in mostly silence. if i had any questions about the expiration dates i would ask her "is this okay?" as i showed her the box. she would either tell me yes or no. In the no cases, the expiration dates were usually so old, i found myself in disbelief that these were on the shelfs still. I Would find mac and cheese boxes as old as 2013 and even a canned soup from 2014.

The food shelf doesn't accept items that dated however, and they were thrown out. While going threw one the boxes i found a bag of ‘Brookside Dark Chocolate Acai & Blueberry Flavors.’ i remember asking where they go only to find out, "the food shelf doesn't accept candy." I remember being at disbelief. I didn't under how a high school food shelf couldn't accept candy donations. I assumed beforehand that they would
