Pat Fuge of Gnome Games wants other retailers to know about a support program for game retailers that works:

 

We'd like to let the little guys know that the UDE Home Store Appreciation Program does work.  We recently received a Home Depot Gift Card and a case of Yu-Gi-Oh! from Upper Deck and encourage all store owners to give the coupons to their players that do go to the sneak previews.  We haven't seen either an increase nor a decrease in Yu-Gi-Oh! sales due to our players going to the sneak previews, but at least the program is returning what was promised to the stores that really are the backbone of support for UDE products.  We'd also like to encourage UDE to continue to work with the hobby side to get us the product before the mass market guys get it as that's the only way we can continue to provide your games with OP table time and events.

 

Thanks UDE; we'll share the product with the players and the gift card with someone that needs it.
