New Nickolodeon Display
 

How often do these get given out? Do stores normally just put them in the compactor? I got mine and Love it. I want more, but I need to reinforce it with some wood so it lasts some years. Anyone have pointers on the best way to preserve it?

It probably depends on the store. Back when I worked for Suncoast video, we would hold displays that customers requested so they could have them. But when I wanted a display from Waldenbooks years ago, they were like YOU BETTER NOT PUT THIS ON EBAY. So it probably depends on the manager.

There's not a lot you can do to preserve this. The acids in the cardboard are going to disintegrate it eventually. The best thing you can do is store it in a temperature and humidity controlled environment and enjoy it while you can. If stored properly it should last 15-20 years.

Did you get it from the trash? Technically that is stealing, but you'd have to be a real dick to turn someone in for it.

I remember when Target had a DOMO promotion for Halloween. I wanted all of the advertising stuff, including a huge, stuffed DOMO that hung near the entrance. I was told it all had to be shipped back to the company, but of course there were plenty on ebay come November 1st.

Store manager gave me it when I asked

Half the time they're crushed and destroyed when we open them at the store to start with. You'd be better off just saving the sides. And my Walmart doesn't give anything to anyone anymore it all gets trashed. I watched a boxed display of atleast 150$ worth of legos get chucked the other day. And funfact for you, all the halloween stuff that doesnt sell after being 75% gets scanned and thrown away. No one really has the big picture ever in mind.

Wow that's odd! At Dollarama all our unsold items get packed and sent back to the warehouse for the next year. Only thing we toss is unsold candy. And that's the same for every season

They save somethings, like snow shovels... dont get me started on snow shovels. I've been moving pallets and pallets of these things all over the warehouse for over a year. I just think some stuff is cheaper for them to rebuy than to store. Sad really.
