Their website has a 40% off any regular price item coupon that will make getting those easier. ;) I do believe that's a running promotion that can be used weekly.

Can you bring it up on your cell phone? I just ask sometimes and the cashier has a printed version there at the register they can scan.

You can indeed bring it up on your cell phone. That's honestly how we do it most of the time. :lol:

Add me that list - my cell phone is a flip phone - I have it mostly as my work phone.

The old BN first aid box is a neat collectible piece - especially for those who like railroad related items. Someplace in my stuff packed away I have an old SP&S sign (Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway) which became part of the BN system in 1970.
