Just wanted to pass along. Went to Hobby Lobby yesterday and noticed they are carrying the line of HO and N DPM kits! (no modular )They had a lot more WS figures in both scales and even found some nice corrugated tin sheets over in their metal section. N scale vehicals too.
The DPM’s are a few $$$ more than online prices, but when you factor in shipping for 1-2 kits, it’s about the same.
Bad news…They don’t seem to be publishing their 40% off coupon anymore.[:(]
PS-They’re carrying the Testors/Floquil weathering pens now too!
I saw a coupon in Easter Sunday’s paper here in Austin Tx. Think I only see them every 2 weeks or so. With the economy, they might have discontinued them now. Thanks for the info on DPM
The one here in Houston near me doesn’t carry that much RR stuff [|(][sigh]
I had noticed the same thing yesterday. They also carry more scale cars and construction equipment. Another thing they have is different sets of weathering pens. They come in three packs for different applications. I know people with a hobby shop don’t care, but Hobby Lobby IS my hobby shop. I order most things online, but I buy my scenery items from them.
If you go to hobbylobby.com you can print out as many coupons as you want. They only make it available every other week as far as I know. That is, unless they discontinued that practice. This is an off week for the general 40% off coupon. They change it on Sundays. You can only use one coupon per day per person, but there are obvious ways around that.

Ditto on the every other week as far as the coupons go, at least that is the normal course for ours, sometimes around the holidays they will do one every week for a while though, and yes ours is now carrying those Floquil paint pens, some Norscot construction stuff, and i think i saw some pegs set up for DPM buildings to, and they also had some Walthers O guage things, which for some reason struck me as odd.
