473.0. "Craftsman Collector Cards" by QBUS::T_ROCCA (You guys give up, or are you thirsty for more?) Sun Aug 23 1992 18:41

    Where are we going with this hobby? I just received 6 of the 
    "premier edition" honest to goodness, I'm not making this up,
    Craftsman collector cards. Yes, that's right, I have 6 out of 
    110 of this "valuable, limited edition set." I've got #32,
    the contractor series wood shaper, #57, bis-kit (tm) joiner
    attachment along with others including my favorite #110,
    the flouriscent work light. Cards are actually pretty nice, 
    glossy front and fairly heavy stock. Corners are very sharp.
    Well I guess the next thing to do is get out the catalog
    and start looking for errors, right?
    
    P.S. back of pack says cards are available in all Sears stores.
    Also, says the only card in America to include Craftsman Workingman's
    Gum (I didn't get the gum :-( ) maybe I should write and complain :-)

    Oh Yeah?
    
    Well, I've got some, too. Let's see, I've got the Jointer/Planer, the
    Reciprocating Saw, the Screwdriver Bit Set, the heavy duty spray gun,
    and of course a checklist.
    
    So there.

473.3No Gum ? Who cares !!STUDIO::GUTIERREZI'm on my break. Do you care..?Wed Aug 26 1992 09:0910
    
    	I got a pack also, and there was no gum in the pack as they
    	were advertising, not that I care for the gum, I'm just
    	making an observation.
    
    	I also received a Craftsman Club card which is good for an
    	extra 10% off when you buy any tools, and a flyer where
    	they advertise an upcoming 3 day sale, I think, for the
    	end of this week, not sure about the dates.

       I got the tool time cards too. The gum is only in the regular packs
    at Sears. The packs we got are only 'samples'. I didn't open mine,
    it'll be worth thousands $$ more some day!! 8^)

    I got my cards by mail. Along with them came a job application.  The 
    letter said something like "we find that that best Craftsman tool
    salesmen are Craftsman tool owners."
    
    The current climate here at Digital being what it is, I hung on to it.

      Yeah john, but once they hired you they'd probably stick you in the
    kid's clothing dept.!
