The Fidget Spinner craze: fleeting or here to stay? I don’t get how a spinny shiny thing helps you concentrate on anything else, but you know what? I don’t, a hundred percent, get Li’l Yachty, either. I am not as highly-prized a target market anymore. I got over it, because I’m a white guy in a place with running water and cheap gasoline and, suddenly, no goals to reduce carbon emissions anymore. Bootstraps!
Anyway, as I (or you) notice Fidget Spinners for sale in the area, I’ll note prices here.
Target, Oak Valley Drive: $3
Pilot Travel Center, Baker Road (north of I-94) -Virtually highway robbery at a whopping $12.99. Taking advantage of the harried traveler-with-kids.
7-Eleven, Main St. – $7.99, or $11.99 for a light-up one
TCBY, Washtenaw Ave – $8.99
Five Below – $5 or less, assuming they are in stock (they were out last I checked)
Rural King, M-59 and US-23, Hartland – $6.99 (cheapest, but also, not really Ann Arbor)
Please hit me up, @britain on Twitter, or leave a comment below, if you have further details about local merchants selling fidget spinners. Or message me on Facebook. There aren’t that many Britains, I bet you can work it out.
Together we can all save some money, or help someone else save some money, which is almost the same thing.
