It's not really that big of a deal. He was just trying to help.
I just went by the store at 10am as soon as it opened, and there were indeed no mini's. Any size. Any color. None.
This time the rep said that they don't get shipments on Sunday or Monday, so that is why nothing has been available online for the last two nights. Then he curiously said "just looking here I don't think there will be any tonight either, so maybe try Wednesday night". Not sure what that means, and he wouldn't explain.
I'm happy checking every night at 10pm, it's pretty painless. Like we said previously, shipments come in bursts, so one night soon I expect a bunch of them.
