impyI braved the Walmart near the house to see if they had the MH minis. I saw an empty rack that I think might hold the boxes if I'm remembering the display from Tumblr right, but it was completely empty so I don't know for sure. I even tried up front with the other little mini things. Sigh. Failure.
I did pick up two of the Megablok ghouls: Toralei and Twyla. All the Cleos were aggressively wonky. I also snagged a Civil War keychain. I wound up with Cap and Mom claimed him. (Also: bad, Marvel. Bad. I hope everyone who okayed the current shitstorm chokes on a LEGO.)
Not sure if I'm going to try and brave the one near work on Monday. On the one hand, I like to avoid stores on holidays because it's one less person buying stuff and if more people didn't go out on holidays to stores/places that need not be open, well, then they wouldn't be open. On the other hand, I want those minis.
^--- Yesterday.
Today the tropical whatever is busy rolling on through so it's rain city. Mom overslept so I didn't leave work til 40 minutes after I clocked out (of course) and then we swung by the kittens. I got pictures with the camera so look forward to that tomorrow or Tuesday. I'd do it today, but because I was still there half an hour after my shift ended, they had time to ask if I'd work earlier tonight and I agreed because a) I like getting off at 6am b) I'm trying to say yes to any scheduling changes I can say yes to so they'll remember how often I said "sure" when it comes to my needing time off in July c) I had no real reason to say no beyond "man, that last hour of sleep is amazing. No." :P

Whoa, I don't even remember that Gigi and Catty, so I'm pretty sure that wave never saw the light of day here, either. Same with those kmart locker ones I forgot about until your post. What's with this stupid distribution set up??

Date: 2016-05-30 08:09 pm (UTC)Heh, I feel you on the dank corner. By the time I'm up front, all I want is out. I think the one by work has all their stuff in a weird spot but I don't remember where. I just know it's impossible to get to without looking like you're trying to steal something.
Mattel very clearly doesn't want our money. That's the only thing I can think of for their distribution weirdness. One of these days I'll remember to check Tuesday Morning again.
