We have done it enough times it's almost scripted.

We call and explain that we are from Lansing and none of the stores in our area have and would like to know if their store has it. We offer the UPC or Wal-Mart number to make it easier.

It's something that should take no more than a few minutes. We have all the information before hand. We just need to verify stock before we drive 3-4+ hours round trip to pick something up.

I don't mind traveling to get stuff, it's fun but if they don't have anything I want why travel there?

Shrug.


Next time you plan a road trip lemme know, I may tag along!

I have no patience for rude employees. I will put the manager smackdown on them fairly quickly, depending on how bad they pissed me off.


On another note. WE NEED OUR OWN FORUM!!!!


Will do!

Aww, damn that's all I need another board to spend more time on...

I mean that's awesome 'CP'.

So I went an bought some stuff today. A few items abnormal to me, like the Prime voice changer (Cullen style), and a Barricade Zip zAp (fun for kitties and humans both :P ), and a t-shirt from Hot Topic with the Barricade Decepticon Police Car badge and logo on it...

Nothin' much else to say though. Great to be off school. Bad because I am in a grad class 8-3PM all week, then basketball camps coaching next week, and then finally...the Botcon week long vacation in Rhode Island!!! :grin:

My wife thought it made my voice sound like I was in a horror movie... so I would guess that's a not impressed. :P

And she does not like the 'punish and enslave' quote on the shirt. Thankfully she was not there when I bought it.

Oh, and today I exchanged the Desert 2 pack I bought the day prior because Blackout was missing an actual piece. That's the 3rd movie TF I've exchanged for poor QC. BO is pretty dang sweet though. I think he's my favorite.

I too only caught the highlights, but that was a great thing for him, and for the Tigers organization.

I could not resist the sale on the Takara BW reissues. I ordered the set of 8 with the extra Optimus Primal, Megatron and all the other stuff.

JT.. thanks for posting that link! I didn't know that. I never got a Robot Masters Beast Megatron.. so for $15 bucks that's pretty good. I also ordered one of the loose Takara Galaxy Force Vector Primes. I've been meaning to do this, but just kept putting it off. So now I had an excuse to combine the shipping :grin:

Yeah, I spent way to much money on movie toys. I don't regret it at all though :)

I'm just glad things toy wise has calmed down for a bit, not much new coming out for a bit and at least when it does it won't be 30 different things to buy. I can't wait for the 25th Anniversary G.I. Joe's to hit!

Pretty much every gas station around Lansing has them now. I drink a few a day, my girlfriend does as well and I have family that send me the codes via email or text messages.

I haven't won anything to my knowledge yet but I think we have a couple more weeks before the prizes start showing up.

I forgot to post last night that I saw a leader megatron at the Carpenter road Target in AA. Also, the AA TRU had a few of the star wars Saga Legends figures. This was an all white AoTC Clone Trooper and the 3PO with the battle droid head piece. they look very similar the the 30th collection boxes, but they say saga legends down in the corner. I picked up the Optimus Prime Flypaper at the carpenter road target. I now adorns the door to my Toy room :grin:
