(...) They are advertising a hell of a lot for not a hell of a lot, aren't they? I suppose they think they'll fool the masses with lots of bright light and noise, but from the conversations I've had so far I don't think it's working very well! (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Do Big Dubya even have an advertising campaign, if they do it shows the impact it has on me, though I only watch satellite TV (which does have Target ads). I wonder how many normal toy shoppers do the price-checking Lugnet ALFs do. Maybe they (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) 20 mins? that's nothing! When I went during lunch to a local Big W store on toy sale opening week, I almost fainted when I saw this HUGE line of trolleys... 76 to be exact! one lady who was around the 30th trolley in line said she had been (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
