I personally work at wal-mart.and I do believe that they still do unless they just quit selling it over the weekend.

they banned ephedra and then they took the ban away and then i believe, August of this year, a new ban went into effect.
http://injury.findlaw.com/ephedra/ephedra-news.html

after the first ban places like walmart and kmart and rite aid stopped selling products with ephedra.
the only thing that you can find at walmart (not so much) or kmart and rite aid is Ephedrine HCL or Ephedrine Sulfate- these combined with caffiene and asprin at a ratio of
1:10:10 (ephedra:caffiene:asprin)
create the bascally same effect as the diet pills with ephedra in them (warming, pseudoephedrine DOES NOT WORK in this stack)

its dangerous, take it in moderation.

edited to add : At rite aid, Bronkaid (which is behind the pharmacy counter) has the ephedrine sulfate in it..
everything with the ephedrine in it is behind the pharmacy counter, you must be 18 years old to buy it and you must sign a waver b/c it is now considered a 'controlled substance'

They still sell sudafed but you have to go to the pharmacist to get it.
They sell ephedra where I live at convenience stores in the products called Mini Thins and 3 Way bronchial dialators.

Ephedra is banned. They still sell the pill but they won't have that ingredient.
