| I was at Mall of America last night and I had a hat made at a place that does custom embroidery on baseball caps. It's bright red. Pretty close to TLG Logo red, actually. On the front it says "I read RTL" in big letters, and on the back (in an arch (...) (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

| | | | | Caldors: going out of business

| "Opportunistic Marketing 101" or "Let the Mania Begin" Just came from the local Zany Bainy which had a nice end unit display of old AMT plastic X-Wing and TIE fighter models. What was the end unit anchoring? Why, the Lego aisles of course! Can you (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
