I got wind from a friend that one OD in RDU had some and they bought two on Wednesday. I went to the same store this morning and the pleasant lady at customer service told me someone came in and bought all the rest and they have no immediate plans to restock. All the other branches are out. It's only a matter of short-time before this is replicated everywhere. No matter how deep in the country you think you are - Chatannooga, Kansas, Boisie, your OD is going to run out and the game is over. In fact there is a good chance IMHO OD just make corporate policy to stop stocking them. Sure you can chase gas stations and the like but as I say plenty of other less trodden paths to the same spend there.

This one died before it even started.
