Rally for This: Collector Edition '70 Ford Escort RS1600 From the Kroger Family of Stores

Why doesn’t Kroger offer the 1/2 case for sale on the website anymore?  No stores here in NJ and part of the benefit of buying online was getting a 1/2 case or case unopened with the exclusives included.  I haven’t done the Kroger mail ins because that is not offered anymore.

NO Krogers here, either. And 3 of those exclusives, I'd really like to have. 

I'm hoping an old friend, who doesn't seem to post here a  lot, comes through for me again.

They really should bring back the trades board. I have an Alfa, but nowhere to trade.

Yeah, no Krogers in my area either (Kansas City, MO).  But I will be in San Francisco in November.  I'll have to check out if there are any there!!  Good luck to everyone that is hoping to get one.

I am here in Northwest Houston and went to seven different Kroger‘s and do not see the shipper anywhere so how are we supposed to buy the exclusives in order the Ford escort if we cannot even buy $20 worth at Kroger‘s but I guess I will just have to buy $20 worth of cars. I already have because my Kroger‘s are still back on 2023 cars, good luck to everyone

No Krogers in my area, but Smiths is owned by Kroger so it’s good to go on the mail-in.  Make sure the check the stores that fall under Kroger. There a list of the stores that count for this mail in.

I went to other stores since I had come from afare and the same thing none had hot wheels to be found. I guess I don/t need this one
