At the Franklin Target, all Joes are on clearance at 50% off. They had 12-18 figs at $5.49 (half renegades CC and other half 30th IG), three Skystrikers at 17.49 and some 12 inch figs. If I wasn't flying out I'd have bought all the Skystrikers. Hopefully someone will enjoy these at the discount.

I just found them at the store on 96 in franklin (across from k-mart). The tag said $3.50, but the WILL NOT honor that. If the manager had not been a dick about it, i might have bought them at the full $6 price, but as is, first come first serve at that store with all 6 available. I'll try another store tonight.

Hey Nogamus, That $3.50 price tage is for the Combat Heroes Joe figures, so it's really for a different product. I'd still try to get them to honor it, but keep that in mind when evaluating the manager's "dickness."

Just picked up the discount SE and SS, I for one am suprised I actually found these with the way tankers are talking I was ready to have to wait the normal six months or better for Tennessee stores to get these.

well, i'm not sure, if you're referring to the little non-articulated guys, they were on a different peg(s) with a different price. This specifically said "GI Joe Single Figure". My guess, left over from the last batch of low-cost figures they had, though i've not seen them on their pegs in over a year. I had not heard or rememberd a $6 price prior to going, so I thought, hey $3.50/each, great! Not like i was trying to scam them. When I asked the cashier about it, she said, it was fine and she'd have the manager refund the difference, instead, he just refunded them flat out. when I asked if he would not honor the price tag, he just got pissy like i was really trying to screw him over.
I get why they are that way, being franchises and not corporate stores, they have to watch every little thing, but still, I can't stand someone not honoring the price they show, and then getting pissy with you when you ask. I don't make it a habit to go to that particular store, but they've just insured that I will not return. I will however be hitting one of the other 12 dozen stores near my house and accept the $6/fig price as i get a couple. |

Found the Dollar General Joes in Chapel Hill TN. They had all 6 and rang up at 6 bucks each. I will try to hit up some more DG's in the Mid TN area today.
