Last I checked, PetSmart & Petco do not sell sugar gliders. You often have to go to an ‘exotics’ pet shop, or a breeder (preferred) for sugar gliders.

As I work at a Petsmart, no, you can’t get one from Petsmart. lol, we don’t even have caresheets on them.
A breeder is definitely your best choice. They’ll give you the best information on them and be able to give you a young one, which is your best chance of bonding with one successfully. Do lots of research before you settle on one. They are a lot of work and have special diets.

sugar gliders are illegal in utah. you can only purchase/own one with a wildlife permit. here are the requirements to get a permit…..
SUGAR GLIDERS CAN BE POSSESSED IN UTAH ONLY AFTER OBTAINING A CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRATION. BEFORE AN INDIVIDUAL CAN APPLY FOR A CERTIFICATE, THEY MUST OBTAIN A LETTER FROM LOCAL ANIMAL CONTROL ALLOWING POSSESSION OF A SUGAR GLIDER IN THE LOCALITY IN WHICH THEY LIVE. SALT LAKE COUNTY DOES NOT ALLOW POSSESSION OF SUGAR GLIDERS OR ANY ANIMAL THAT IS NOT NATIVE TO NORTH AMERICA. REQUESTS FOR SUGAR GLIDERS ARE APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS:
1. HOLDING FACILITY WILL NOT BE LESS THAN 18 INCHES X 24 INCHES PER ANIMAL HOUSED.
2. HOLDING FACILITY MUST BE HIGHER THAN LONG WHERE POSSIBLE.
3. HOLDING FACILITY MUST BE INSPECTED BEFORE SUGAR GLIDERS ARE AQUIRED
4. HOLDING FACILITY WILL BE INSPECTED YEARLY AND BE AVAILABLE TO SPOT
INSPECTIONS AS DEEMED NECESSARY.
5. NO BREEDING OF THE ANIMALS IS TO TAKE PLACE. (POSSESSION BOTH MALES AND FEMALES NOT ALLOWED.)
6. NO ANIMALS ARE TO BE RESOLD FOR ANY REASON.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE WILL BE GROUNDS FOR FORFEITURE OF THE CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRATION.
COST OF CERTIFICATES ARE $5.00 HANDLING FEE AND $50.00 CERTIFICATE FEE FOR THE FIRST YEAR. RENEWABLE THEREAFTER FOR $25.00.

No.
Even if they did, I WOULD NOT buy from them.
Regardless, Utah is an illegal state for Sugar Gliders.
