Default Squeaky Wheel get the Oil

There's an old saying, "The squeaky wheel gets the oil."

I need your help, all of you....Pre-op and post-op!

Sam's club has stopped carrying a product that is just perfect for wls patients. The product is called, Sugar Free Philly Swirls.

It's a 10 calorie, sugar free ice pop..... It's made by a small, but up coming company. The product is good with no after taste.

Sam's club has pulled it from the shelves and replaced it with a bigger name brand....Popsicle. Now I have nothing against the Popsicle brand but I will say this...The two popsicles look to be the same size but have a difference of 5 cals each. (We as MO's know what a difference 5 cals makes.)

Sam's club has stopped carrying the Sugar Free Philly Swirls and now only carrys the FULL SUGAR version. Please help me lodge a complaint with Sam's club.

I need everyone to put in a call to the Sam's club Buyer.

Marybeth Lewis at 951 696-4500. You need to give her office an ear full and ask for a call back. Remember to tell them we want the SUGAR FREE Philly Swirls not the high Sugar ones.

I don't know about you but I like having a CHOICE between sf products when I go shopping.

Thanks in advance!

What's a BJ's????

Sam's Club was carrying the large boxes...; 40 to a box for about $8.00...You can buy the small 10 count box at Food 4 Less for about $6.00 a box.

I'm trying to get Sam's Club to start carrying the SF Philly Swirls again so please, please, PLEASE call and put some pressure on the buyer.

Laura, I haven't seen a BJs anywhere past the east coast. None in KS, MN or WI. I don't think they've made it to CA yet. BJs kicks Sam's ass if you ask me. I hate Sams.
