(12/08/20) Free Lighted Ford Truck from Menards! (UPDATED)

Not to be mean but why show this if it expired on November 14th, 2020?

Looks like December 14, 2020

First line in ad is as follows:

Buy any O scale train item $19.99 and higher and get a FREE 1:48 scale Lighted Red Owl Ford Truck! Offer ends Monday, November 14, 2020.

It is a typo. Look at the website .

Just a heads up, we are out of the Red Owl trucks. The new FREE item is the two-tone Gray/Black lighted truck.

Have a great weekend!

Please get more Lifesaver cars? I opened my special order 4-pack and 2 of them are damaged (I'd swap at least one of them if I could get another lifesaver car.)

Also, I'd love a NORX car soon.  Or a british-style engine. or a passenger car.  Or all 3.

How (& when) did you order a 4-pack of Lifesaver cars?  They have been out of stock for a month or more.  They were either sold individually, in a six-pack, or as part of a 4-pack set of candy cars, with the others being M&M's hopper & boxcars

We ordered it somewhere between late october and mid-november, and just didn't open it due to covid precautions (letting any package air out for a week or so before opening), and general busyness.

Just opened my Tide plant from Menards. The two warning blinking lights on top do not work, but the cycling Tide lights and walkway lights are fine.

Not  worth it to go through the exchange process. Quality control is serious; I do not agree with people when they excuse the product’s quality deficiency by gushing over the relatively low price of the Menards structures.

I would rather pay a few more bucks and have confidence that these items work as advertised.

If anyone absolutely has to have the Red Owl truck, I just got one I am willing to trade for the grey and black substitute or the REA stake bed truck that I missed.

Thanks,

Jeff
