Anyone have any experience with these sales? I received an email this week from them. They are offering a mystery box containing a building, 3 freight cars, a vehicle and a gift(all imperfect) for $99.00. sounds like a great deal.

This is the first I have ever seen it. This year is the first year they have started to e-mail news about train-related items to those who have bought trains before.
It does sound like a good deal. I would be interested but I already have all of their buildings.
I have bought the Woodlands Scenic buildings that they had their name placed on the face. Less expensive too. Strange because I have a strong dislike for Menards.

How do you get on a Menards mailing list for O Gauge model railroading?

Here's a link to their website about the offer, but they say its sold out on line.
I will have to check my local store.

The Menards train mystery box sold out very quickly. I guess there are a lot of O gaugers getting the Menards emails.
Hmm I get their emails but did not get any notice about this sale. I wonder if you had to have ordered the boxcars or somthing to get this offer?
This is the info from the mystery box sale, price was $99.

We have various O gauge buildings and train cars that are not perfect; so if you are handy with a glue gun, paint brush or hand tools we have a deal for you! This online exclusive deal is crazy; You will get a mystery box filled with (1) O gauge building, (3) O gauge train cars, (1) vehicle and a bonus free gift. We will not send you two of the same car. This is a first come, first serve sale so when its gone--its gone. Items are sold as is, no returns.
- Slightly scratched, dented or damaged O gauge products
- No two are the same, if ordering multiple boxes some product duplicates may occur
- Mystery box contains: (1) O gauge building, (3) O gauge train cars, (1) vehicle and a bonus free gift
- Items are sold as is, no returns
Sounds like a great offer to me. Be interesting to learn from the members who made the purchase what the actual contents are.
Everybody's looking for a deal. This sounds like it could have been a great one.
