Or perhaps Penzey's has entered into a resale agreement with the health
food store.

Penzey's is one of the things I miss about living in TN. They opened a
Penzey's in Germantown a couple of years before I moved. What a great
store! Just walking in the door the place smells fantastic!

I, too, buy those bags of Penzey's herbs & spices. I stack them in the
freezer and use them to replenish the jars. They keep for a very long
time that way.
