I didn't find any $15 12 packs today but I found Francesco's Hauler for the first time today and bought one. It might be all plastic and stickers, but come on…A Hauler and a Launcher in the same package? What 5 year old wouldn't think that's cool? Also found a Quick Changers Oil Rig Ambush for $10. Wouldn't have been very happy paying full price for this, but for $10 it is a pretty cool addition to our display.

I found Francesco's hauler last week too and I just could not pass it up (im like you, even if it is all plastic its still cool). I have not opened it yet so I don't know how it works but I know my son is going to love it, I need to go back and get a few of the cars to go with it.

You don't really need the stunt cars.
The regular Francesco fits inside just fine.
Here he is with our other haulers.

Awesome!!! We don't have no where near the collection of haulers that you do (that's the main thing we are missing) and i must say I'm jealous but he fits right in with the others. :0) Did you buy any of the stunt cars when you bought it? If so do your kids like them? I wanted to pick up a few just so my son could have some to be rough with.

Picked up the Target 7-pack today… needed the Kit Revster and Coriander Widetrack. (I also believe this is the first release of Unibody McQueen with Rust-eze logo on his spoiler).
Also saw the London Rescue pack at 14.98… of course, bought it before Christmas for 35.99… bummer
But either way, some really nice other finds today… check a few of the other threads if you're interested in seeing what I found

If you have your Original Receipt, it is good for 90 days … you could buy it at the $14.98 price and return it on the old receipt!! GO BACK!! That would cover MOST of the cost of the new 7 pack!! LOL

I knew as a fact someone would say that… I'm an opener… so sadly, that's out of the question but hey
Thanks for the advice though, jestrjef

Opener or keeper, won't really matter … the one you bought at the 70% off clearance price would be sealed … then you just return THAT one with your original receipt from before Christmas. Your opened ones will still be safe at home!! 🙂

Bobbyjack, I agree with you on the oil rig. I'm glad I found it at 50% off because the way the legs keep falling off I'd be upset if I had payed the full price.

Here's what the Quick Changers Oil Rig looks like side by side with the Disney Store Oil Rig. Together they make a pretty cool set up.

Snagged the last $15 12-pack…question now is whether to keep it or give away as a birthday present.

Birthday present. Infect someone else with the Cars virus and increase your trade presence. 🙂

Things like this annoy me. :/ Was the employee that took this return honestly that dumb?!? It's obvious that this box set was opened. It is kind of funny how Sally is eyeballing Grem though lol.

They have so many products that they don't even care. Someone will come in and buy it for what it is.
I worked at a Best Buy years ago, they sold these speakers that were about 4 grand for the pair. Someone bought them on a Friday, returned them on Sunday. I went up to customer service and saw them sitting there, one speaker was missing, it was filled with concrete blocks. The other speaker had the woofer punched through, tweeters ripped, and there were cigarettes and beer cans inside the box.
I asked the store manager if they could at least cancel the refund credit and he said nope, nothing they could do. Pretty crazy.
Lego sets are another one, especially after Xmas. People open them up and fill them with crap and return them. I had that happen and I had to throw a fit at a Walmart to get my money back.

I think it's annoying too, but if it was a 7 pack of justice league figures and one was swapped for a GI Joe, would you really know? probably not. unless the person is actively working in the toy section, he/she would have no idea. it appears unopened and it has 7 cars. unfortunately, it is happening more and more and I'm sure SOME people got the idea from this site. too bad. It's tragic.
