Not that great a fan. Other than staple items some things are hit and miss. If you see it and want it, buy it now because it might not be there again.
Most of the stores I go to here in Munich stock with the boxes on the shelves. Which can be annoying when they are nearly empty. Not all products are treated that way.
The grocery stores are smaller.
One thing they do is flood the stores with extra workers to restock shelves.
That is fun, dodging the carts and pallets of new product along with the stacks of empty boxes and packaging.
