  • Route 66 signs - which one would you buy?

    Thanks to a call from GotFrank, I learned that Hobby Lobby has metal and wooden signs on sale this week for 50% off... that includes several Route 66 signs... I took pictures of 5 tonight - I'll share them here... which one would you buy?

    #1: ($12.99 retail)


    #2: ($9.99 retail)


    #3: ($29.99 retail)


    #4: ($14.99 retail)


    #5 is actually a license plate sign: ($9.99 retail, I think)



    Here's a photo of an actual Route 66 sign taken in Missouri in April 2012:


    I'm sure everyone remembers that Radiator Springs in on Route 66...

    If I buy one, the plan is to hang it on the wall... thanks in advance for your input...

        I like the 3rd one that resembles a street sign.

              I really like #1 as well. Tbh - they all have their appeal for different reasons & I like them all but if I could only buy one I'd go with Option 1.

                carslover it is a Disney Movie Rewards item. http://www.disneymovierewards.go.com/rewards/cars-sign I was halfway to the points required. When they (DMR) dropped the required point's from 8,000 to like 1,500 as a Christmas promotion. I missed out on that opportunity and had been collecting points for the sole purpose of getting the sign. So missing out on it gutted me! But with the help of cac1959 and a trade I was able to get one off of EBay to the tune of around $120. And I spend my 4,000 points on other Cars items instead, poster set & a bobble McQueen. (My son also got an Agent P wall clock.)

                    I like #1. Might have to go down to Hobby Lobby later today and pick one up.

                      As GotFrank said, I helped him out with a Disney Movie Rewards (DMR) Cars sign... and I liked it so much that I bought one for myself... I've still not put it up on the wall... one of these days...

                      Thanks for the input on the signs.

                      I'm heading to the east side of town for lunch... I think I'm going to buy sign #1... #3 was $30 so it's $15 at half price... I like #2 as well but it's a little larger (was less expensive)... #4 reminds me of an old black and white movie that's been re-done in color... it's just not the same.

                      They also have some Route 66 coaster sets but I don't know if those are 1/2 price or not.

                      EDIT - I bought one #1 Route 66 sign during my lunch hour today.

                              I may go back and buy 2 and 3 today...

                              And I added the picture of the real Route 66 sign from Missouri for you, John.
