You know, looking at the DG Joes I have to admire the simplicity and small footprint of the packaging. Hasbro could put a mini file card on the back and shove in another weapon or two and use the money saved over big, fancy card designs to put out more figures!
Sorry, I haven't had much sleep. :P

Total amount of money spent on gas looking all over south FL for Dollar General toys: 35 bucks. Moral of the story: Coulda saved myself the trip.

Ofcourse! no one else has them and between scalpers on Ebay and Dollar General managers, I'd rather pay the scalpers.

Let me save you the trip to some of these stores bro.
Hialeah store on NW 122 and 67th ave. on Monday I show them the picture and tell them its in a box they recieved last wednesday. If I can please have someone check the stock room or let me take a quick peek. They say no, that item comes in on Wednesday. Today (tuesday) I go and they say "so sorry, we just sold the one case we had". so they did have it! but no one bothered to check for me. Store on NW 186 and 67th ave. On Monday a young lady says they will recieve it Wednesday. Today they tell me it came in last week and some guy already got the whole case. Store on Pines Blvd and 101. On Monday the managers checks computer and says its scheduled to arrive next Saturday. Today different manager admits that he looked it up for a guy who called, I items had arrived on Monday (same day I was there) and that he sold the whole case. Store on NW 103 and I95 I suspect they have them in the stock room somewhere. The manager says they show up as "PER PLANOGRAM" on her handheld but refused to check or let me check. She says I have to come back when they are on the shelves. Plus that store is fucking scary! goons and hobos all around the joint. Both the store on Pines and the one in 186 and 67 offered to order another case but I would have to go tomorrow between 12 noon and 2 pm, Apparently thats the window they have to place the order. I work so fuck it, Im done!

I've been a DG Joe hunting SOB the last 5 days and I have found all of them twice but it took me over 30 DG stores to do it. By the 10th store I finally realized that most of the DG have the single pack Joes in stock but they are just not putting them out because literally none of the DG stores I went to had a hook (or section) to hang them on with their price. So most of them are in the plastic bins that come off their truck. Also The DG manager's are usually some of the dumbest people on earth and will just lie to you and say "if it aint out on the isle then it aint here" which has been a lie on 3 occasions that I've had. These people are usually very lazy or pissed of if you ask for help to look in the back. You have to be very pushy and get an employee to dig around in the back.
The positive DG visits were in Green Cove FL (Greater Jacksonville), 1 in Gainesville where the manager was super nice and ordered me two cases, and last in Newberry Fl where bless her heart, Tammy the manager, who I think was flirting with me (odd) also said she'd order 2 cases and they'd be there this Friday. Luckily I have to drive all over north central Fl for other reasons anyways so its not too bad to hunt them. So be pushy and ask them to check in the back and follow them back there and watch them so they really do it. Also see if the manager will order you a case or 2 and save it for you. I have like 5 cases being held for me at 3 stores cuz of this. Good Luck!!!
