The sponge is not selling through. Anyone can do their own surveys on this matter. Talk to store managers and ask them to honestly give their assessments. What you find will not encourage you.
Don't take anyone else's word for it. Find out for yourselves.
I have been talking to Walgreen's managers. They are telling me that the sponges are not selling very well. They have drab packaging, are expensive and don't stand out well on the shelves. Their words, not mine.
All of the people who are claiming that the sponges are flying off the shelves at Walgreens are lying their butts off.
