OT: Christmas Tree Shops Ad - when do they have stuff out?

[KristinU]

I just got an ad yesterday that states that it starts on the 16th. Would the merchandise be out now, or will it go out tonight after the store is closed?

They have some small Lego sets (very small, like a minifig and a couple of accessories) for $2.99 that I'd like to get a few of. We're having an at-home Lego themed birthday party for DS in January so I thought these would be perfect as party favors (or even as an activity like a building contest). I'm sure they'll go quickly...so I'd like to get over there at the right time - will they be out tonight if I go kind of late? Should I get over there ASAP after work? Or am I out of luck altogether and they're probably all gone by now? I've never wanted to try to snag something like this at Christmas Tree Shop before, so I don't know how to "play the game".

My CTS has had those sets for awhile. I grabbed a few they were $3.49.

Thanks for the reply, luvmy3. Since you found them before I decided to stop on my way home from work - no luck, but I checked with the service desk and she said that they hadn't received them in yet. I also learned that I was wrong, the start date on the ad is 12/17 not 12/16. So I guess I'll call tomorrow evening and see if they have them yet.

Usually when they advertise something, they have alot of it. Are you going to Orange or Manchester? I always seem to have better luck in Orange.
