That's a disappointing thing about this thread. Wouldn't we be better to start with more social retailers that are more likely to support the general spirit of OSM? uk.coop already have a map of branches to support their Co-operate phone app and may have enough permissions over the location data to release it in a compatible way, repeatedly. There's also a coopopendata or opencoops push recently. It would be very cool if OSM store data updates could be fed back too... Any interest and/or pointers of what permissions are required, what formats would be best, including how to mark up licensing? (It might be that different members of uk.coop have supplied info under different terms...)
