Once again great timing on the sale since I’m running low on kits!
great timing all right!!! I’m going to HL this week!!! I was hoping a sale would coincide with our trip!!!
I have a funny story about this. On my way home from a golf expo on saturday i happened to see a hobby lobby I had never been to before. Well I get home and tell my wife that I would like to go to it. Anyway things happened and i didn’t get to go. But i did however visit the hobby lobby that is within 15 minutes of my house. When i got there i was broken hearted because all of the kits were 50% off and i missed out visiting another HL during the sale. I was a little mad i didn’t know about it going on. Then i saw this and it made my day better. so saturday i am off to explore a new hobby lobby.
Well, here I am in Rapid City, SD. I went to HL today to take advantage of the sale. I got Tamiya’s M3 Lee, quad gun tractor and 25 pdr. gun, m41 walker Bulldog and several lesser kits.
I went today. Picked up a Tamiya Bradley and Sherman. Also picked up one of those Hobby Craft Challengers, figured $10 I woud give them a try. Wife got the M20 armored car. Also picked up a NASCAR kit since I have never tried one because I feared all the decals, but now I have them figured out.
Did find out though that the armor section at the one I go to is slowly being phased out. A worker told me all they are ordering is jeeps. Is this happening at them all? I know I have bought about every armor kit that the one I go to ever has anyway.
I wish Hobby Lobby was closer to were I live.

I’m going Sat. because they restock the selfs with new kits here. My wife usally doesn’t say anything when I go but she just told me to keep it under $300 [:(] Well on the plus side the clerks won’t look at me like I’m crazy when I check out! [(-D]

Hey Woody with $300 bucks I can only imagine what you’ll come home with [:D]
Wife and I got into the Lawrence Hobby Lobby about 3:30 this afternoon, kits pretty well picked over. Still managed to get a Minicraft (Academy) 1/72 PB4Y-1 Lib and a Revell 1/72 S-100 class S boat. Only spent 20 bucks. Won’t say what wife spent.
Let’s just say you’ll have to wait till next time they restock the shelfs to get an Accurate Minatures kit. bought em all. LOL Tore up the Tamiyas as well. Please don’t tell my lovely wife. [;)]
I feel ya Woody , my wife gave me the guilt trip for about 3 hours and then told me I did real well considering she expected me to spend alot more . As far as the Accurate Miniatures I was lucky to find the Avenger , my local Hobby Lobby usually doesn’t sell them and I got the last of the Tamiya kits or I wouldve bought more , so I pretty much had either Revell or HobbyCrap oops I meant Craft LOL [}:)] but I think considering where I’m at I did ok .
I’m pretty lucky in the fact that there doesn’t seem to be a lot A/C modelers around here. I drop in ever so often and the plane kits tend to sit around for quite a while. There was a pretty good selection of kits available and I scored several of the new Accurate Miniature 1/48 F-6B’s. The only AM kit I didn’t buy was one Avenger kit that someone had relieved of it’s decals! These B-25 kits are unbelieveable! And at $20 ea. . .[;)][:D]
