Yep, I took my granddaughter yesterday to look at the big fish tank and animal displays. Not crowded at all. Didn't buy anything.

Stiff - You basically went to an aquarium for free, along with a stuffed animal exhibit.

We do that on Thursday's. When you're on a fixed retirement income you gotta stretch your resources.

I hit up all three stores here in Anchorage on Saturday and picked up a bunch. I heard that they sold over 15,000 bricks between all of the stores. When I got to the store over by the Dimond Center the wait to check out was about 30 minutes.

Check at Cabelas on Thursday during the grand opening. You might also recheck WalMart if you can get there before 9:00am on that day too. It was a ammo feeding frenzy like I've never seen before. All for some 22lr ammo.....
That is why I cant find 22LR in Cincy. Or 380 or 9mm

Copy that! The same goes for reloading components, I keep hoping that one day I will be able to afford to spend quality time shooting.
