You're kidding, right? Don't get me wrong, Somerset is great. But I've been all over, and I can tell you that Detroit is certainly not known as a fashion mecca.
I go to Somerset too, and I love it. But it is definitely lacking stores that other nice shopping centers across the country have had for years. |

It is -- and if you look around hard enough you can sometimes find it far away from Michigan. Or find a store that will agree to stock it if you buy it regularly. That means you're more likely to find it in the little mom and pop stores than the big chains, the user friendly stores. |

I'll have to say, I have seen it in a either 7/11 or Circle K store in CA. But when I noticed it, I automatically thaught about MI.

I'm not merely referring to the stores, for I realize that there are quite a few boutiques/department stores that it is lacking. But having lived in and/or visited various notable cities across the country including those known as "fashion meccas," I have yet to discover a location designed with so much flair. |

Hi Va-cat. It would be a little drive for you, but I was at HEB off of I10 and Fry yesterday. I saw Vernors there, but only in the 6 pack, it was $1.99. Maybe your store could have them transfer some?
Anyway, thought of you and had to let you know.
Good luck! |

Here in Fl. I get it at Publix in the 12 pack cans and also 2 ltr. bottle. Walmart has it too, but only in the 2 ltr. bottle. I'm not sure, but I think I've also seen it in Winn Dixie. |
