My local Costco had three boxes of Zicam on the shelf yesterday and a few units had been sold out of the top one. No time to stand in line to inquire of the pharmacist how well it was selling. Since you pay for it at the check out counter and not the pharmacy, the pharmacy staff may not know. Bought one myself. Costco charges about $5.70 as I recall, so there was probably $300 (retail) of Zicam sitting on the shelf. I don't know the wholesale price but it looks like Larry's figure of $200 per store may not be far off. $8 million in "sales" may just be filling the channel.
