I thought maybe you were going to talk about Piggly Wiggly, it's not on the store locator anymore, how can there be product in such a store? lol
There is no conflict with the blog from 2010 and Facebook post imo.
That occurrence seems about as 'natural' as they come......
Fact or Fiction........
Possible or impossible......
There is potentially a big difference between 'customer' interest and 'shareholder' interest.

Nearly year has passed since that blog and 'things have changed' in some regard. Still in Lowes Ohio, but now folks can buy it online via Home Depot. Maybe a customer won't wait for either, maybe they'll talk to a local Do It Best store. A lot of 'natural' things can start happening if things in 'the system'. Eventually could have possibilities with GSA...and other potential avenues there......
Americans are getting more choices on how it can buy/get WC 1000+ as well as discover it. Customers finding 'good/great' products are likely to ask locally to obtain it (that's natural) as well as talk within their network of associates, friends, family.

Folks (aka shareholders or not) calling across the country and doing whatever who knows what isn't 'natural' imo
But a guy (posted online in a testimonial) supposedly got a local Home Depot in Hawaii to get the product for him when the online site says shipments aren't made to Hawaii or Alaska
That guy is probably a frequent shopper at that 'particular' store; may be familar with the clerk and vice versa...so one may go out of way for 'customer service'...because it's 'local'.
But for me to call up a store (especially as only a shareholder) so far away (and do or ask things) is a 'problem'...it's not a condition that is natural or authentic imo....
