I walked in to the Herald Square store yesterday and got one for $41. Interestingly the cost cut was not anywhere to be seen on the shelves and I had not read about it here so I expected full price and was pleasently surprised by the price. Its a nice car.

 I was disappointed in their display Windows this year they were no where near as electorate as they have been the past few years. There was no clear narrative carrying over from one to the next and there was very little animation. 

Those who ordered through the Macy's app as their first purchase got an additional 25% off of their order.  I ordered through the web and got a $10.00 Macy's cash voucher for use on a future purchase.  I did end up using the app to buy a couple of parade snowglobes.  Other than trains, I'm a sucker for nice discounted snowglobes.

It's a lengthy explanation as to why, but I ended up with 3 boxcars at the Black Friday price of $41.99 + tax. Before I return two of them I thought I'd offer them to anyone in the area who may be interested. If any of you would like to come by the Grange display (masterfully engineered by BillP) in Havertown on the weekend someday I'd be happy to sell the extras.

My not always helpful I phone changed Havertown to Hagerstown and I missed it.

I'm not able to send PMs, so if you'd like to stop by between 1-4 today I'll be there running the layout. Total cost with PHL tax is $45.35. My name is Mike. I may be around intermittently tomorrow as well.

If no on else wants a car I'll likely be returning the third one to the Macy's in Springfield sometime this coming week.

Philly Dude, I do not see an email in your profile.  I'd like to see the display and get the car but I am working 12hr shifts all weekend.

Sorry, Mark. I just added it in there. Shoot me an email and perhaps we can meet up sometime this week. I won't be at the layout at all next weekend.

Any other takers for the last one?

I also ordered on Thanksgiving while watching the parade and I received it last Monday. Nice graphics.

The only hitch was shipping: while processing my order at $41.99 the mobile app reminded me that I was only $8.01 away from free shipping. It seems all orders over $50.00 got free shipping. 

So I bought a Dept 56 Snoopy Water Tower to go with my Peanuts Christmas Train.

Cheers,
