I'm not sure why you are saying Quickbooks pro in the stores is not subscriptions because Best buy, Walmart they are all selling Quickbooks pro Plus 2022 subscriptions.  Here is the link to Best Buy

Plus Amazon has it every, retail location I've been to has it.  Why would you say what you did about retail stores not selling Quickbooks pro subscriptions?
