I have been following this company for several months.It is a family owned business that started out as a small neighborhood store.The products became so well accepted that the large chains have slowly started bringing their products into different communities as a tester. Publix has had it in their stores for several months in Tennessee,I believe.Publix has 900 stores so you could imagine once they start sending it thruout the country. Walmart alone is a fantastic accomplishment,and now Marshall and TJMaxx. The concern was whether they could supply all these major chains but todays PR answers that question. They have been saying all along that their audited financials will be out this month and everyone will be very happy with the results. It is not too late by any means to be entering this stock,they have a huge future and keep in mind they have been trading for less then a year and already are going to be filing for the OTCBB WSM

dont really know about this one..... marshalls and tjmax arent really that big if you think about it... how many people go there to get food. Not many, my wife and I go all the time and we never have purchased food from them.
From just looking at the chart the floor looks pretty solid here. Make sure you dont hang on to this one for to long, especially if this ever closes below .0016!
