Recent Finds - January 2013 Store Purchases

[cac1959]

Noticed that the local Meijer had added 2 each of Nigel Gearsley, Holley Shiftwell, Acer, and Lewis Hamilton... I was excited to see them and sent a message to GOMATERGO... found out that he'd given them to his wife to return... still no new stock in Meijer... or any other store in the county.

Thanks, OzzieMum... by the time you figure in the gas I used this week and the time as well in driving 700 miles this week on Cars hunts, I didn't save money.

Anyone need a Launcher?

Anyone need a Launcher?

I've seen those at many Walmart stores... it appears that they got a special "case" of launchers with McQueen, Nigel, Max, and Lewis Hamilton.

Pirelliboy - Wow, nice find!

Yeah. They have odd stuff in occasionally. Boogity had a find a short while ago. I found a Max Launcher a week ago too. Worth keeping an eye out.
