posted at both entrances, if you bring your magnifying glass and stop to read a sing that is 8.5 x 11 from top to bottom
definately not a legal post

Any idea if this is corporate-wide, or just one store being a problem?

I think it is just the one store, but not sure

Hmm, seems like I might have an addition to my Monday morning call sheet...

I think they are franchises and probably could decide (foolishly) to post or not. IMHO almost not worth a letter plenty of places happy to take your business.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I'll still take my business elsewhere. I'll just tell them why I'm doing it.

Hey, we scared the crap out of Perkins with a large response. Time for the next round.

ETA - And you know, if a letter doesn't work, corp HQ is right here in town. :twisted:

It's not corporate wide. My cousin owns the DQ's in North Branch and Pine city....not posted, and permit holders are welcome!

FWIW, the DQ in Glen Lake (Minnetonka) is also not posted. It's on the SE corner of Excelsior Blvd and Eden Prairie Rd---just to the East of Gunstop.

Yup. Not long ago, I stopped at GunStop with my five-year-old. He was able to recite the Four Rules, as well as the Eddie Eagle rules, for Larry.

That earned him a sundae. :)

I was open carrying and got nothing from the staff but ice cream and smiles.

I am tempted to go recite Eddie Eagle for Larry now. :mrgreen:

Hey, free ice cream!

Are you talking about the one on the corner of century and 36? If so I just got back home from there and I didn't see any sign, and I was carrying. If it is that dairy queen that sucks because it is 1.5 miles from my house and they just lost my business

Love Eddie Eagle - but the video is like riding it's a small world -

Now for the rest of night I'll be humming -

Stop, Don't Touch, Leave the Area, Tell an Adult

Yeah, I think Larry might throw me to the dog if I started doing that in the store...
