  Shopping report - no great deals yet
 
I visited Target and Wal*Mart in Mountain View, CA, and Kmart in Santa Cruz yesterday, and didn't find anything exciting in the way of Lego. Target had a few sets at 30% off, but otherwise everything was full price... --Bill. (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Blockade Runner coming to next meeting
 
Hey everybody! I hope that all of you had as good a Lego christmas as I had. Grandma did what Grandmas do best and gave me the Rebel Blockade Runner, ensuring a double exposure response on my part (showing both rows of teeth when smiling!). (...) (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Wanted: Movie Maker Coupon from Lego Mania Magazine
 
Does anyone have an extra $50 off coupon for the Steven Spielburg MovieMaker Set from the last Lego Mania Magazine? I carefully cut mine out and placed it lovingly in a secure location.

  More train work this week...
 
I cleaned off the kitchen table this week, in order to sort some LEGO bought over the past few months, and to *finally* build something! I worked on a couple new iterations of the multi-bed 'well-car' designs. I'd made a new page ((URL) to document (...)

Initially, I was not going to be available for this meeting. I have since changed my schedule and I will be at the meeting.
