New finds from WAL-MART of all places

That is from the Wal-Mart I frequent the most. Hardly ever do they restock their Hot Wheels. Mostly Fords but there are a few non-Fords as I appreciate the old Musclecars as well as the new.

I usually check out my local WalMart every week or two (as well as the Meijer across the street) for new die-cast Mustangs. I need to get back and check again, but unfortunately the WM is still closed because of hurricane Ike passing through. No power yet I guess.

Nice finds!! I still need to find those Shelbys. The only ones I can find are in the ten packs, and I'm not paying $10 for one car.

Try Target around the checkout registers. That is where I found this.

There's like 32 of them, but I guess it would be worth it. I did find some of the matchbox GT500s today though.

I just realized something that's sorta creepy, but really cool at the same time. This morning while I was driving, I saw a red GT500 vert on the freeway. Then I go to Target this afternoon, and find two of the same exact car, that I have been looking for for months. I guess it was supposed to be a sign from the mustang gods!

I'd have to rob a bank first. Not something I really feel like doing.

I know. Off Topic but when I was a teenager I had a recurring dream that I died in a car crash on a very long bridge (like Florida keys bridge) in a red convertible sports car. I had this dream for a couple of years. I have never owned or driven any red car since, ever. How's that for weird.

It's a sign: don't ever drive a red sports car!

I finally found them also last night. I had almost given up on them because I've been looking for such a long time. Still haven't found the MB blue ones yet though.

I'm working on it, might fly into Dallas and rent a Mustang and join the crowd there but its not the same as driving your own Mustang but I still have some time. Off to Wally World to look for more Mustangs, cheeesh just when I think I'm catching up!
