I went to my local TRU to pick up Bench Press and when I got there instead of seeing the massive amount of Joes I only founf enough to fill up maybe two pegs and they consisted of basically only Baronesses.
I asked one of the Sales Associates and he told me that must have sold really fast, which I knew couldn't have been true. I don't really know what happened to all the figures I had just seen there the other week. I didn't know whether to be scared because they could have removed them because they weren't being sold or happy because they could have been sold to the public. this isn't really a question but I thought this deserved to be shared.

dude, was the 2 for $10 promo running fri/sat.
That, plus we are in the holiday rush, it did just come out on DVD, and let's just be straight- we're stuffed w. peg warmers now, and a little peg clearance is good for the new waves.

Even when mine have that sale nothing seems to move. I think I would find it odd if 6 pegs of the same figs that have been there for over a month or two had suddenly vanished as well.

I'm extremely happy to see that they're sold, I am upset I didn't catch Bench Press in time though.

My TRU has had a ton of pegwarmers too. I went on Saturday, and thanks to the sale, I guess, they had 2 Cover Girls, 3 Scarletts and a Destro. That was it. I'm going to hit it up tomorrow to see if they restocked.

I had a similar experience. This was about 2 weeks ago at the TRU in Mishawaka, IN. I went in around 8pm and the pegs were ALL EMPTY. I thought they might've moved them somewhere else in the store, but nope... no Joes! Single packs, at least... they had some Res 5-packs and some other odds and ends.
