Silverton Promo...

The Foosball table got run over by a truck! Seriously! A guy I know wanted
to buy it, and he was told it got backed over accidentally by one of their
trucks! They will probably sell it to you real cheap though...

Unless you are willing to wait at least two hours to check out with your
junk, er, cheap items, don't bother making the trip. They only have three people
doing checkout, and it's pretty slow.

They did have some bottles of decent wine for $5 each. I waited for about
fifteen minutes in line, and figured I'd only moved up about ten percent of the
line's length. So I put back the wine and left.

Yesterday, they did have a few nice items, like small refrigerators, LED
flashlights for a buck, and a quality BBQ utensil set. As of 10:30 this morning,
the refrigerators and flashlights were gone.

I went to the Silverton yesterday and was one of the first ones to
enter for their "Expansion Sale". What a HUGE dissapointment! The
postcard had 12-14 items shown, many for a $1 or 500 slot points. Many
are worth about that. They were oh so careful to let in only Platinum
and Diamond players for this "Special" preview. Yeah the boat was
there (didn't bother how many millions it would cost). I didn't see
the foosball table or a few other items listed on the postcard.

Today in the Review Journal, they advertise that they have "Thousands"
of items available. What a joke! When I was there there were skid's
all around the pool area. I guess that they mean that they have only
20 or so items, but thousands of them.

Really dissapointed.

I guess that explains not seeing the foosball table. I did not see
any wine while I was there. The mini-fridge and the flashlight were
there though.
