Comparison shopping within Hobby Lobby

[mrtc4w]

Next time you buy from Hobby Lobby, look around for displays that have the same items. I took my 40% off coupon in and was just looking around, looking for nothing in particular. The newest AMT Avanti kit caught my eye, I love Avanti's! Even with the coupon $27.99 was a bit much. HL had 4 different aisle displays with model kits. I found the very same kit with $24.99, $21.99 and finally $17.99 price stickers. SOLD! With the coupon it came to $10.79!

Another time I got one of the Polar Lights slot car kits for $9.99! The regular price is $49.99! Someone forgot to put the 4 on there. Plus I had my 40% off coupon.

I always go into HL with 2 of the coupons. If I don't find anything I give the coupons to people with kids or large items. This time I couldn't give it away! They either had the coupon on their smart phone or had one printed out!

I wish our Hobby Lobby would do something like that......I don't seem to have any interest in the ones I find marked down, but our Hobby Lobby lets me make two separate purchases from my iphone coupon.....I'll have my wife behind me with another model, so I'm getting two models at 40% off!!!!

Hobby Lobby watches their stock closely, as something nears the end of their sales run and they aren't restocking it anymore, they will make these displays you saw in the middle of the aisles, or on end caps, and there's also a discount section usually in a back corner where they will start placing the marked down items. You scored well as I don't think the coupon is supposed to apply, but maybe it does, have to try that myself! My local HL ran a bunch of kits that are out of production on two displays just like you described a month or two ago.

These were not on sale. They just marked them incorrectly.
