So I know it's super common in states that only allow s&s to have their walamrts and grocery store selling fireworks. Welll.. I went to the grocery store and they had a grand TNT display in the store. It was only novelties but still, we don't see this in Texas, I wonder if a law was changed or something. It was funny seeing the kids drooling over these "fireworks". Made me go home and pop off a bunch of old DOT firecrackers.

TNT may not make the best fireworks, but they sure know how to market them. Their packaged sales displays are very well designed. My local supermarket (ShopRite) sold out last year......not even a 5-second smoke ball left.

That's actually pretty surprising usually they just push their safe and sane products.

Here in CT we are a limited S&S state. ShopRite has AFW product, Stop&Shop has TNT and CVS has Phantom. There is a couple gas stations (mobile and Sunoco) up the street that got World Class, Dominator and some other good name product in the store!

Kuhns used to have all AFW stuff before we stopped doing guarantee sales. The grocery stores love fireworks because they only have to pay for what they sell and return everything that doesn't

There was a video going around a while back of someone who lit off a whole S&S display being sold in Walmart lol. I can probably find it if anyone is interested

Sam's Club has TNT on display right now. Dazzling holographic foil wraps with eye-popping intricate designs. Wish they put more money into the amount of pyro in each one and less on wraps.
