1031:07:04

MS. SPRAGUE: And directing your attention over here to the right, the aisle where the gentleman is standing, all the way to the right of the store, are you familiar with what was in that aisle in January of 2023?

1041:07:17

1161:08:02

MS. SPRAGUE: It also says, “FLT PDLX LQDGLY” for the second item. What does that stand for in CVS?

1171:08:12

ANGELA KRAUSE: It's Fleet brand, but then it's going to be PediaLax, and then a glycerin suppository.

1181:08:19

MS. SPRAGUE: Okay. So the FLT is for Fleet?

1191:08:21

ANGELA KRAUSE: Yes.

1201:08:21

MS. SPRAGUE: And the PDLX is for PediaLax?

1211:08:24
