Thank you for asking the question, I've been wondering this myself. Too bad none of the responses so far are close to me.

Yeah I'm surprised none of the chains have it (that I've been to so far). HEB's in Texas were bigger than the ones here, so my guess is that bulk spices aren't mainstream enough to be profitable for smaller grocery stores (if that makes sense).

It's definitely more environmentally friendly, so it's ironic they don't sell them like that at Whole Foods.
