I stopped in a local store here, and they have them for buy one, get one at half off (not free). I am in PA, so I`m not sure if it`s different in other locations.

 

So... Is it safe to say that the Dupli-Color paint works well with models?  :rolleyes:

 

I have had pretty decent results with Duplicolor.  :)  I`ll also second what the others have sad about testing on sprue.

Same here in the Milwaukee area, and as stated in their monthly flyer:

I Worked for advance for 2 years and now cannot stand them I feel I was the only one working the store that knew anything about cArs! Noone at any of the stores here knows how to look anything up Without a computer 9out of 10 times the part I want is "not available" in their computers don't have that problem at o'reillys. Oh soRry we were talkin about duplicolor paint!

It's the same here in Florida .  The tag at the store said the same thing the ad said : 

                                                                                         in big red letters " BUY ONE GET ONE "  and then off to the side is " 50% off 2nd can "

 

Kind of a sneaky way to get you into the store .

I purchased 4 can of duplicolor paint and paid for only 2 of them.  Throw the ad in their face and let them read it.  Then get charged accordingly.

Another thing you might want to do while in Advance- check out the clearance rack. When they are cycling out colors and types of paint they will no longer be carrying, you'll often find them there for a significant discount. Back when I still worked there I picked up two cans of DupliColor and a can of VHT header paint... less than five bucks for all three.

Never made it out of the house last week, is the sale still on?  I'm very surprised if it is. I might stop by Thursday on the way to my model club, thanks in Advance.  Pun intended.   :lol:
