Yeah, they announced the phase out sometime ago. Not really a big deal to me since I don’t buy much there outside of already discounted rocket motors and elastic for shock cords... |

For me its not so much their pitiful selection of rocket kits at 40% off I’ll miss, but rather BSI Epoxy, Testors sprays, and cutting mats.

Jeffy,
HL hasn't had that coupon on rocket stuff for a couple of years now....and somehow I'm not surprised that the coupon is gone altogether now. I see it's disappeared from my Hobby Lobby app. [deleted stuff about Testors paints being discontinued or not...because the more I read, the less clear it becomes]

My understanding is that Rustoleum has discontinued Testors and Model Masters and is only keeping Patra line.

Well with so many people hunkered down at home, a lot's of them were probably using the the 40% off coupon, THEY KNOW THEY GOT YOU. JUST LIKE PAYING EXTRA TO WACTH DISCOVERY PLUS. You now pay for shows that you already pay your cable company for.
NUTS !!!!

Removal of the 40% off coupon has resulted in my discontinuation of visiting their stores.
They rarely if ever had any kits I was interested in, and only would go in to get D, E, and F motors at 40% off, which is what they should be priced at already. They no longer even carry the 29mm motors. All this = NO SALE.

I haven't been in a couple of years. The store is an ~80 mile round trip and is located in one of the heaviest traffic areas in West TN. It's barely worth going with the coupon, but without it, it's just a busted trip. They seldom had rocketry products on clearance at that store.
Harbor Freight has done the same thing with their 20% coupon. They have been adding more and more to the exempted list every year so they haven't been worth much anyway. I just wait until what I want is "on sale" beyond their perpetual "on sale" prices.

I agree, if it was not for the discount or the close out items, I would not have set foot in the place being around that many Pastel Colors gives me the creeps.

When we were in college we went to a party one time only to find that we weren't welcome, so we walked out with a mannequin that had been used as a decoration/coatrack. one of the guys I was with adopted her and she'd occasionally show up at our parties over the next few years. At one party a couple of the guys distracted the new owner and I gave her a Fabulous Fishheads tattoo. The owner was not amused.
Years later I went to a Halloween party at the guys house, and lo and behold, there she is. She'd only ever been the top half of a torso anyway, so he'd turned her into a chip and dip tray, a gruesome occurrence that involved a jigsaw. I was chipping and dipping and saw something I didn't recognize on the table. "What's this?" I asked. "Salsa," said Chuck. I dipped. It was awful. "This is awful," I said. "Yeah, well it's potpourri," said Chuck. I've had an aversion to it ever since.
