In a stunning move, Ace hardware has stepped out, thrown down the gauntlet, and boldly gone where they have never gone before, into the RC Car Wars! The early release of their BF ad features a Vengeance RC Car for the amazing price of $19.99. While this may seem trivial on the surface, it is Ace Hardware's first foray into the RC Car marketplace. This marketplace has been the domain of Radio Shack for the last 20 years or so. Ace has been looking to expand into the red hot world of cheap RC Cars. It looks like they mean business! Overstock.com is offering the same item currently at 3$9.99 while Amazon.com has it at $37.99. WOW! No if I only had a need for one. YT has also heard that Ace is working on a new slogan to replace the 28 year old "Ace is the place with the helpful hardware man" to an edgier "Screw Radio Shack! We're Ace Hardware Damn it!" In what may be a related act, Radio Shack has declared war on Ace Hardware. Radio shack has released a Remote Controlled Army of tanks to wipe out the Ace headquarters in Chicago IL. More as it becomes available!
In a shocking bit of news released early today, YT has learned that Mega Retailer, WalMart has moved big into the "Cheap DVD's of movies that no one watched when they first came out" category. Walmart is planning on offering such titles as "Air Bud 3 The quest for a bone", "Twiggy the Water Skiing Squirrel Goes to Cypress Gardens" and others titles as Early Bird Door Busters. This has left Target and K- Mart stunned as they were planning on doing the exact same thing.
