Hey Stockhunter, I'm not sure if this is viable, BUT I think it is a GREAT idea. You know, outside of W Watchers and upcoming Groupon promotion, there is very little advertising ... AND local sampling is great advertising. HOLIDAYS coming up ! I live in NYC, so my local stores are Whole Food and Food Emporium ... obviously, not a match for your idea, BUT if some of you ( who love the product ) have smaller local markets, GO FOR IT ! I don't think ( sadly ) that Weight Watchers cleared out the inventory. Maybe I'm wrong, but I want to see this venture succeed. Go SMKY !
