Shoppers rushed to grab bottles of Prime, the energy drink promoted by YouTubers, which caused the store to run out of the product. The stores appeared to have sold out quickly.
Prime was only available for a limited time and has now sold out.
The discount retailer started selling Prime on Thursday for just over two dollars a pop.
Customers were limited to a single bottle of each flavor.
The drink will be a Special buy, and once they're gone, they're gone.
The demand for Prime has been very high. The drink was available in seven flavors online and was priced at just over twenty dollars for a 12-pack. The mom told Insider that her son's school banned students from bringing in the drink because they were selling it.
There were a lot of people waiting outside the stores before they opened on Thursday.

More than 100 people are waiting outside a store in southwest London to buy a drink. The Daily Mail quoted Sheppard as saying that she saw people buying whole cases of Prime. She said the whole store was a mess.
Some videos show people scrambling, shouting, and shoving to get their hands on the drinks, but some customers said they had a calmer experience.
Rob said he arrived at his local store 15 minutes before it opened and there was a line of people wanting to buy the drink. He said that customers were told to go to two checkouts to purchase it.
He said that he was "hats off" to the company. Everybody in the queue was respectful and orderly.
The drink had been difficult to get hold of for a long time, according to Chay Phinbow, a teaching assistant.
About half an hour before the store opened, she arrived at the Kidbrooke branch of the store. She said they were the first to arrive.
There was a lot of people waiting for the store to open but the staff did a good job.
Brandon said he had only been able to get his hands on the drink once at the supermarket chain and once at the German discount store. He used an app to find out which stores had the drink.
The drinks were limited to three bottles for customers.
"We picked up the drink exclusively because we knew it would be popular," a spokesman for the store said. Increased supply resulted in less long lines for drinks.
Many people who bought Prime are fans of the two people who have promoted the drink on their social-media platforms.
I wanted to see if his product lived up to the hype, so I followed him for a long time.
He liked the ice pop flavor of the drink.
Sam Kinsella told Insider that he bought it because his son watched it. His opinion was not very positive. Kinsella said it was not a good drink.
Jake Dickinson said that some flavors were better than others.
