try "hit the shelves", but the in the Soviet Union the proverbial sausage would hit the shelves only once or twice a month, normally by the end of the month, when the shops had to meet their revenue obligations.

And they wouldn't put it on the shelves, as most shops would sell it over the counter. Sausage was a rare delicatessen then.
