Hobby Lobby re-opening

[OldNYJim]

I hope all the stores are getting a few of the Revell 29 kits - I’m hoping to pick a couple up next weekend.  

My local Michael’s still has stock of the DEUCE kits, so I don’t suppose they’ll be stocking the Model A anytime soon...

Couldn't fine anything in the whole store worth standing in the long checkout line for today, not even with the coupon. 

There are days I find nothing and buy an extra can of Testors Dullcote with the coupon. And I hear ya, if the lines look long I just leave!

And if I do find something and wind up in the long line, I make sure everyone on that line knows about the coupon!

Since all the shows have been cancelled this year (so far) I grabbed this here.

Wish they would make a four food version...

Just an FYI this week's HL ad says 40% off all hobby kits.

Actually, it doesn't say "all."

And it says "Does not include 'Your Price' items," whatever that means.

Just saw the website.  The 1/24 and 1/25 car kits have been marked down from $29.00 to $18.00.  How long do these mark downs go for?

Doesn't that mean items with yellow price tags?  As in, don't expect 40% off closeout items like those $7.49 '65 Riviera kits.

If nearly everything is 40% off, grab whatever you "need" and use the coupon on something else, like a Molotow pen or a can of spray paint.

I notice in the ad they've got markers on sale this week too, so maybe Molotows will also be cheap.

Yes I saw that.  I think I've seen about three of the "yellow tag" kits in my visits to HL.

[OldNYJim]

I went to check out another HL near us today...parking lot was suspiciously empty...

Had no idea that they close on Sundays ?

[Danno]

Yes, they’ll be re-opening “tomorrow” (actually, today - by the time you read this).

  ?

[wrenchr]

closed on Sundays!!

That’s also what the lot looked like during the quarantine!

[ChrisBcritter]

Went to Deerfield and Niles this morning; nobody was Hoovering up kits like when they were on $7.49 clearance, and neither cashier had heard about the discount (both remarked they'd never seen kits on sale like that). I'm guessing there isn't quite the profit margin for resellers, maybe?

[ewetwo]

I went to 3 HL today and bought a few kits. I was searching for the Lindberg 1966 Chevelle kit but there were none. If I order from them on line it come in for around $23. That might be my option.  All the model kits are 40% off. The employees were flabbergasted and they said HL has never done this before. Are they trying to make room for new kits? I've already gotten the 64 Plymouth.

[sfhess]

They have done it before.

 

[ChrisBcritter]

About a year or two ago they discounted all kits at 30% - IIRC it was around Christmas.

[Mike999]

My HL checker today said, "We don't do that very often,"  about the 40% off deal.  She mentioned That Guy we all know about, one dude who came in and bought a whole cart full of kits.  I restrained myself to only buying one kit, a second MPC "Deserter" '84 GMC pickup. 

Still no re-stock of the '67 Impala 4-dr in this store, or I would have bought one of those.  The only new kits I saw were both big trucks, the Ford Snowplow and the Autocar dump.

A manager at my local store told me about a guy who comes in nearly every day and buys all the clearance kits. Last time in the store, I saw two kits and bought them both half just to screw him up! ?

[SCRWDRVR]

The new HL by me opened today, pretty good selection of kits 

 

[Dave Van]

My HL was low on everything WED when I was there.....someone is buying kits!!! 

[ranma]

went to Lima Ohio's HL they had 1 '60 chevy pickup, and I bought that! Military kit area has been made smaller  as they started putting Gundam wing , and some other Japanese anime kit's in. (Dragon ball z / Pkoemon model kits)...........
