It certainly is possible that other people don't know about TM. I was
pretty clueless myself the first time I went - my wife clued me in about
getting there early and I thought she was joking. She was not. If you want
to swing by and avoid the mob, wait until about 8:30 - the first rush will
be over but it will likely still be busy.

This evening I went to a friend's birthday dinner at a restaurant in the
same shopping center as my local TM. As we were leaving I looked in the
window to see if I could see anything. The store had a big sign in the
window announcing their re-opening on February 5th. Through the window I
could see some Artic sets, some Race sets and a bunch of Duplo. If this is
all there is it will be a lean TM sale. Hopefully more stock will come out
through the next week of re-stocking.
