 | | Blockbuster promotion ending —Thomas Main
|
| | | Since the Blockbuster promotion is ending in a few days I wondered whether it would be worthwhile to go around the BB stores and ask if I could buy the leftover promo sets. Has anyone tried this? -- Thomas Main main@appstate.edu (26 years ago, 28-Sep-98, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | Good luck. All our local BB never had them. I'm pretty sure at the closest one, one of the employees must have STOLEN/bought them all and never put them out. Why? I got there one night, and they had at least one complete set strewn all over the (...) (26 years ago, 29-Sep-98, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | UPDATE. Yesterday, out of the blue, our local Bb had the 3331 "plane" and 3333 copter in stock, free, take as many as you want. So, uh, I did. Took near 20 of each, and barely dented their supply. NO posters up, and an employee said "this is the 2nd (...) (26 years ago, 30-Sep-98, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | | | | In my case, in 2 of the 3 BBs I have gone to, they just let me have them, and the one store had no problem with me taking 5 of one set. I'll be back there tomorrow ;-) They're cheesy little Freestyle sets, but better than the McD's CRAP. And I want (...) (26 years ago, 1-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
