That's pretty cool Sherry!

As a fan of both Lego and Iron Maiden I am absolutely loving the Trooper motif!

I just about this place not far from where I live and thought I would share.


I'm definitely impressed, and somewhat jealous.
My closest Lego is Walmart.
Addicted to sharp pointy things.

Woolworths, a local supermarket, is doing a Lego promotion now, with every purchase. I shop for groceries anyway, so I thought I'd get in on the action. Many people do not, which is why some employees give out a handful of baggies instead of the one or two your purchase would have earned. Once the promotion ends, I'll give them to my niece.

I did have Lego when I was a kid, but there were no fancy pieces back then. Just the basic things, and wheels and stuff. With all my pieces now, I cannot make anything, as they are very limited, small pieces.

We had a Woolworth's department store when I was growing up.  It had a diner counter to eat at and it had an upstairs area.  No groceries that I can remember though.

My childhood Woolworth’s also had a dinner counter and also a vacuum tube tester for your TV, you would put in a vacuum tube you brought from home and suspected was bad (you usually brought several) and it would tell you/show you if it was bad (light on good light off bad) and if it was bad you would buy a new one from under the tester which were in small boxes and you just matched the numbers from your bad tube to a new one
judge others by how they treat those they are allowed to mistreat

I think that's a different brand?
