I didn't think I would find this model hanging on the pegs, but I scored at Target this weekend!

the rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, plus the

The $TH of Matchbox ?Comment

Just heard from Oshkosh that he has found one for me and sending it my way! Which is good because the Target stores I have been to are void of Matchbox.

Great score!
You know, if they'd gold VUM-plated the base, it would look even better.Comment

Wish my Targets yielded the same for me. But at least I got mine for not too outrageous a price...on ebay.Comment

My gold Seagrave has arrived as has the Hudson. 
I agree, though, that it would have been nice if they had put the chrome base on the Seagrave like they did the Hudson.

And Saturday I went on a 'road trip hunt' to Oregon, but knew I should take a short diversion at the start, to visit a Target I usually stop in on Sunday, and it turns out that was the best stop of the 180-mile round trip*. I found one gold Seagrave hanging on the pegs at that Target. The other Target on the drive had some of the latest (R) case so I bought a couple for extras, but no gold 50th Anniv. series at all. But at least I found one in a store I wouldn't have NORMALLY visited on a trip to Oregon and the other walmarts and the one Target between here and there...so I credit a 'little birdie' from above (Mom always loved my collecting hobby) with telling me I MUST divert to that specific store that's about 5 miles out of my way...
[*(I diverted to a nice state park in Oregon that's about 30 miles from the border since it was a nice fall day, adding 60 miles over the 120 just to the border and back)]Comment
