The last trip to Ormond: the last trip.

 This post title is literally. I haven't been happy with really any of the trips (1 1/2 hrs each way) the entire year. Even last year had a huge price bump, and then doubled again this year. The whole idea behind this blog is about the deals. DEALS! If'n there ain't none, then thar ain't nun! In all fairness, I probably will visit the store once or twice a year just to see what I can bring back home, but I'll be sticking with the DEAL side of things whenever I do go. You can't blame me, with the new LCS right here in town saving me at min. 3 hours per trip, then add the $25.00 in gas. Yeah, even with the fact that there isn't dime boxes at the new place, there are quarter boxes and I can balance those two things out without leaving town. 

Now, I believe there will be a total of three posts from that last trip. As indicated I didn't get the deals I have come to appreciate..... I really did appreciate the KnT shop, I pimped them all of the time including getting people to go there like Jeremy who just went there last week. This year the prices have been more inline with what I see posted on other blogs. 



Starting off with Braves of course, but just the one scan above. Funny thing is I could have skipped these as I already purchased them and are sitting in my Sport Lots box. As for the rest of the scans, GOTCHA, they are Braves too. 











 

That completes the Braves portion of the last trip to Ormond. Two more posts to go then I can finally start showing off the stuff I picked up from the 3 trips to Grand Slam right here in Ocala. There are grand total of 80 scans from those trips. (not counting the 27 photos I took). I will certainly spready those posts out to cover the rest of July, and probably into to August too.


Have a good night everyone.

  2. I totally understand where you are coming from. There's a part of me (especially the flea market guy) that's all about deals and I stopped going to one of my local FMs because I rarely found anything to purchase. Glad you have that awesome LCS to fall back on.
