Well was by a Hobby Lobby store yesterday to pick up some Ink, for modeling, and saw that this store raised there Vallejo paint by a dollar a bottle, now at $3.99, use to be $2.99, anybody else see this?
Still not bad if one needs a jar quick, but in the long run, that might come back to haunt them.

You're lucky, my local Hobby Lobby doesn't carry Vallejo paint. All there is are the old small Testors bottles and a handful of Vallejo on clearance.

I noticed that as well yesterday. Mine upped vallejo paint to 4.99 for a few colors. I used to get some colors there for brush painting, to support brick and mortor stores a little, but no more.

Not sure what it has to do with the topic, but I appreciate your efforts to help this fellow, Rick. Pretty sure the auto parts industry is doing fine, though.

Maybe he wanted to write "Brick and Mortar" stores
