I'm going to devil's advocate your devils advocate.

The one and only time I bought Dreamwater, it was because I saw it in my local Walgreens. I didn't go in there to buy it, I just happened to see it when I was in there and it was near the checkout. Then again, the only reason I noticed or cared about Dreamwater was because of my interest in this company and stock. I didn't even drink the Dreamwater because I am allergic to one of the ingredients.

I don't use Walgreens for my pharmacy needs and therefore don't even know if they have a drivethrough, the main reason I go in there is because they have a big sign that advertises good sales on things like 12 packs of soda pop. The last time I was in there I actually picked up, of all things, a few pairs of dress socks - because they were in a bin on sale really cheap. I've also gotten some other on-sale clothing items there, which is certainly not what I would think of when I think of Walgreens.

This one has most of one side wall dedicated to cooler space for drinks. I look for KU every time I go in there (and everywhere else) and have not found it, but like most other places, they do have Marley's and the Neuro stuff. I have not seen Dreamwater since the one time I saw it in that store and bought it. Somebody must be buying drinks there regularly, otherwise they would not dedicate all that space to coolers.

It's obviously better to have KU in Walgreens than not have it there, but it's all kind of academic with all the unanswered questions about the layers of companies and ownership, plus the sketchy financial statements full of mistakes and missing cash. If I owned this stock I'd spend a lot more time demanding accountability and oversight from the company than cheering for more product sales from which I cannot even be sure I would ever profit.
