I didn't realize they sold vinyl at Target.

....and this! Over here all they sell is cheaply made uncomfortable furniture

Me neither...

EY I JUST FOUND A LITTLE VINYL SHOP IN NEW YORK ITS GOING TO TAKE US ABOUT ONE HOUR TO GET THERE...

I didn't realize they sold vinyl at Target.

Yeah, I was pretty surprised too. They had like five or six different new releases, and probably five to ten copies of each. I think Lightning Bolt was like $31.99. I have no idea if that's a good price or not though. But the soft pretzels are $2.49. For $3.29 you can get the Pretzel Combo, which comes with a drink. It's a pretty good deal, especially if you're just loitering and you refill your drink three or four times.

these pretzel rolls seem to be all the rage these days, but i've yet to partake.

do they live up to the hype?

I think they do. But soft pretzels are literally my single favorite food in the world, so I'm biased.

[Norah]

soft pretzels are so fucking good

So it seems 10 Club has really just stopped caring.... I sent them this Email yesterday after my wander into town

Hi there,

I'm just wondering - is there any difference between the LP version of
Lightning Bolt I ordered through the 10 Club and the one that I can buy at
the local music store? The reason I ask this is because while wandering
the streets during my lunch break - I noticed that the record store has
several copies of the Lightning Bolt LP for sale and I'm still without the
copy I had ordered (Order #4xxxxxx) which was shipped back on the 10th.

Thank you for your time
Dave


And the entirety of the Email I got back was....

Re: Lightning Bolt query (request #24870)

No difference.


Fuck you 10 Club!

As much as people whined about the quality of that free CD that we got with Pearl Jam, I thought that was a great bonus for paying the extra $5 that it costs to get a CD from Ten Club. If they're not going to give us a special edition, I wish they'd go back to something like that. I'm quite disappointed to have gotten so little for my exclusive Ten Club edition.

they should send everyone a soft pretzel

I pre-ordered Lightning Bolt from Ten Club in July, and got it 15 days after the release, there was no extra CD.

I find my membership fairly meaningless, but extend it every year.

This is a quality solution to pretty much every problem.

Pretzels are gross.

This is the type of wisdom that gets crocheted & framed, and then your grandma hangs it up in her kitchen next to her picture of Jesus.

Have you tried the pretzel bun sandwiches at Wendy's?

I haven't, but I'm always tempted to go in there to try to get them to just sell me the bun. I'm a vegetarian, so there's really not much I can have them put on it, but I still want that damn bun. I was tempted to do the same thing at Sonic when they had the pretzel bun for their hot dogs over the summer.

I thought so too until I went to Boston last year. Somehow I fell in love with pretzels after a night out.

I didn't think it was anything special if that makes you feel better

Yeah, it kinda does, actually. Thanks.
