Score at hobby lobby

[kenb]

Just got back from HobbyLlobby. Went there Tues or Wed and bought the AMT Gremlin with a 40% off coupon. Saw a few things I'd like and decided to go back. Bought the double dragster kit yesterday. Went there about an hour ago and was in the isle with the kits. i asked this guy that works there if the trucks ever go on clearance. i had the AMT Diamond Reo in my had. He said sometimes, then said hold on. Comes back and puts a $24.99 yellow sticker on it. It was $36.99. I tell him thanks. Go up to the register with the truck and a package of markers for $3.99. I give the girl at the register my 40% off coupon and she says "you want to use it on this truck model, right", and i said sure. They're not supposed to discount clearance items. I never saw her there before. Okay for me. $15 for the truck. Ken

nice purchase! wish I could get some better discounts locally.

[Dr. Cranky]

Nice score indeed.

[Guest Johnny]

The only reason it worked was because it wasn't "on sale" in the computer although it should have rung up at full price then discounted..

They don't scan at hobby lobby, they just take the price from the sticker on the item. I asked them about that once and was told that this is the way corporate wants it done and it won't change until they say so. Strange. Ken

i love the way they do it, got a airbrush compressor from there one day that was on sale for i think $90. then i had a %50 off coupon i found online somewhere. i got a great compressor for a little less than 1/3 of the normal price. god bless their questionable methods at the cashier lol

HobbyLobby is great place, and even I know that. Too bad we don't have Hobby Lobbys here in Northern Europe.

Anyway, I visited in Hobby Lobby in February, 2011. That was on Daytona Beach, Florida. Bought Revell's '65 Stepside and SnapTite Kenworth W900. They were discounted, but I was still suprised about the price: 35,02$.

yep, I want to pick up that Gremlin, too... love the 40% off coupons... makes model kits almost fair priced... although I did my biggest buyig, when kits were $10 or less, so still get sticker shock when I go anywhere to get kits.... (love the hobby swap meets, so still can find deals, there.)

Thats a score, I tried to use a 40% off on a woody that was on clearance but they wouldn't do it.

[slusher]

l got the diamond reo at 40 percent off and still felt good..

[Ben]

Does anyone remember how much the Gremlin kit was priced?

[Mike Kucaba]

Actually you don't even need a coupon.I was standing in line there one day and a customer showed the clerk the coupon on her iphone and got the discount!!

[martinfan5]

Same with using coupons at Michaels

[Tom Setzer]

I use cupouns all every time I go To Hobby Lobby, or Michaels, at Michaels I can use AC Moore's 50% off cupouns. I don't Buy from AC Moore, they price model kits $4-$5 above Retail!

[Ben]

[Fat Brian]

I seem to remember it being between $25 and $30.
