I would disagree. Profit may be small in WM but then you make it up in volume and exposure. Loosing WM, if a reality, is a big deal. It's an important NA for any vendors product, and to loose it is surely a set back. So many, many, people shop there for convenience, and it's too easy to grab what's an alternate available on their shelves than to go out of your way for a product that so many don't even know about. If we are out of WM in Canada I hope that is not a precursor to no WM in the US. For myself as an investor in WNBD for over 4 years now (since the .0004's) when getting into a large US NA, especially WM was a large hope, would see this as a negative surely. I didn't see Eric's note on this and have not been paying attention for a while. It surely makes sense however seeing we are below the penny line again. I hope it's not a tale of more bad things to come. WM is a launching pad that should not be discounted, especially when it carries so much weight in PPS when it is a potential account along with Sams club as we have seen with other products. I.E. I purchased my first Oxyclean from WalMart and probably would not have gone out of my way for it anywhere else. It was an impulse buy because I heard so much good about it and saw it on a shelf where I was commonly. Would pick it up a Lowes too. But it's on the shelf in a place a lot of people visit. Not as nearly as many people are that commonly in a Walgreens etc. However since I am an investor I would surely now go out of my way to get some there and refer family and friends. But we need a larger mass of people walking buy it a getting some to start biting at the product on the shelf and WalMart was a great place to do that regardless of who gets more or less profit from the sale.
