As a former broker for Nestle Waters....I can tell you that Nestle went to a regional promotional plan some time ago. Ten years ago they had a strategy that included Poland Springs in mass distribution throughout, however it is no longer distributed as a "mass" brand in the South. The Nestle brand for this area is Deer Park.
We decided to try the Nestle "pure" brand and have really taken to it. I gave up on Deer Park some time ago as it did not meet the Poland Springs standard.
I have not been able to find any store that has Poland Springs by the case on a regular basis...and you will not ever see it at a wholesale club due to Nestle's promotional plan (unless they wise up and change their plan) That does not mean that your local retailer cannot get the brand. Most retailers have the ability to order it in any size/configuration. So, talk to the manager at Lowes, Harris Teeter, or wherever you shop and ask them to consider stocking it. They might find it to be a big seller.

Reason: spelling
BJ's had it yesterday. BTW Nestle and Poland Springs may be the same company, but they taste totally different. Nestle has a "softwater" taste, Poland spring a brighter taste.. Its all about how they are processed before bottling.
I was not able to find it in the Concord area CVS, Harris Teeter, Bloom, Lowes, Walmart, K-Mart etc. etc.
However, I did finally find it at the CVS in Huntersville as someone suggested. Whooo hooo !!!
If you are in search of Poland Spring water in the Concord area the CVS at the intersection of Davison Hwy / James Furr Rd / Old Statesville Rd has it in Huntersville has it in the "water" aisle as well as in the refridgerated section. The CVS at the intersection of Davison Hwy / Poplar Tent Rd / Shiloh Ct has it in their food section. Not sure what city/town that is though..lol.
oh and the cvs stores in rocky mount va also stock it, i have not checked the cvs's in richmond yet.
