My local grocery store keeps moving the milk, but the sign stays the same

For the last three months, I've gone to the same ShopRite in Hoboken every Tuesday. The dairy section has a big, clear sign that says 'Milk' at the end of the first cooler. But the actual gallons of milk are never there. One week they're in the middle cooler, the next they're shoved to the back near the butter. The sign never moves, though. I asked a stocker about it last week, and he just shrugged and said, 'It's always been there,' pointing at the empty spot under the sign. I feel like I'm the only one who notices the milk is never where the sign says it is. It's such a small thing, but it makes me question if I'm seeing things right every time. Has anyone else had a store just decide to ignore its own signs for basic stuff?

Maybe the milk is just shy, idk.

Try gently warming the milk first, @grant.susan, that usually fixes it for me.

That reminds me of how my hardware store keeps hiding the light bulbs, gavinb97 would probably just warm those up too.
