 | | SW sets are in Ann Arbor Meijer's! :)

I just went to look around a few stores in Ann Arbor, Michigan, after the post about Walmart in Mass. I went and looked in TRU, and Target, and they didn't have any in. I went to Meijer since I was across the street, and they had all the sets there! (...) (26 years ago, 7-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars)

Well, it's off to 28th street (home of most major retail shopping in SE GR,MI) I go... Hmm. I wonder if Knapps Corner Meijers would be faster to get to? Steve (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.us.mi.grr)

Steve & All, You know what else is funny is the Meijer's located about 10 miles where I found then didn't have any! Go figure, I sent my roommate out to find them since I have been here at work since 8:00AM Sunday morning. UGGHH!!! Scott Sanburn (...)

(...) Sorry to follow-up to my own posting, but here's the lunch-time report: I decided to go for Knapps Corners Meijers (seems like there should be one or more apostrophes in there). The 28th Street strip, with its high concentration of large (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.us.mi.grr)

Oh, so that was you who came by and bought them all, eh. When I got there (about 6pm on Sunday), all that was left was some of the Landspeeders that you had left behind. In case you are curious, there was a lady there whose son had *just* seen them. (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.us.mi.grr)

No, they are not sold out. They simply have not recieved shipment yet. This is according to the Meijer employee whom I talked to at the Ann Arbor Saline Rd. Meijer. He phone the other (Carpenter Rd.) Meijer for me to check there stock on Sunday. -- (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars)

Scott, Here is a tip for you: when the Carpenter Meijer gets the sets -- you better run yourself over there and them right away. Because if I get there before you (and I intend to) I'm going to buy them all up, and then sit in front of the Meijer (...)

I've only opened one, one of the TIE-Fighter/Y-Wings. The others are for my kids, some as Easter-basket presents, and the others prolly as birthday presents. The instructions are pretty cool looking, with a small (like 1.125"x.375") scene from the (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.us.mi.grr)
