Well...I'll keep that confidential for stalking reasons, but if you dial 
and seek you shall find.

Target is another resource.

Like I said, try different neighborhoods - product choice varies by 
demographic.

Lotsa times I'll find a convenience store with a special going down - 
they almost always have the singles anyway.

Corporate for Soopers should tell you which store is stocking what.

And I've found most store managers will bring in a product for you if 
you pester them.

Barq's is a Coca Cola owned brand - no sweat there.

Diet Rite is owned by RC, so if they have that on shelf it's no biggie 
to bring the white grape pop in.

And Sunkist is part of Cadbury/Schweppes, so if they have that or Dr. 
Pepper you should have the ability to order some diet orange in.

Shoot, I once got Soopers to bring in Anasazi beans from Adobe Milling 
Co. over in Dove Creek as a special order.

If you're persistent they will get the message.

That Bergen Park Soopers should have a receptive manager - talk to him.

These guys all fear Wal Mart - as a last resort that invocation WILL get 
their attention...

And if you do seed the shelves and it sells - well...say no more.

Now if only those west slope peaches would show up again.

Soopers had them once this month - we're READY!
