Doubt it. I anticipate a redwire reminding us of the importance of destroying him, sending him to recycling, etc. Nobody wants to get caught letting it out of the building without permission from corporate via Disney.
Eta: mine is still live. You can easily replace his batteries.

Mine did the same thing. I replace the batteries after Christmas. His head doesn't turn anymore. 🙁 But he chirps. We are ruffling ours off too! 😀@signingminion I'm thinking that maybe they got permission? I can't imagine they would send that out if they didn't. Fingers crossed! I want mine!!!

It was in the merch update that stores coukd raffle him off.
I was/am rather confused about this sudden change in policy.

I wish ours would die already. The thing has been going constantly for at least a few days, and it's driving us out of our minds.

Someone apparently tried to put a sticker over the sensor at one point. I could see the adhesive residue from where they stuck it on.
If it wasn't constantly going off on its own (regardless of whether or not anyone's there), we'd just put something in front of the sensor.

4 round pantry bins in intimates, more mannequins in active...requires an electrician on the overnight. Only four stores in our district got it, out if almost 80.

So, I am brand-spanking new to Signing Spec, and we are getting Electronics Remodel and Home Innovation, at the same time. Any tips, tricks, and a howl? We are also getting an Optical Center, but I believe my involvement with that will be moot? but what the hell do I know.
Yea, I even got multiples of some of the cosmetics signing but they didn't show another store number :/
Still haven't figured out what to do with the fixtures from the cosmetics transcend endcap pallet I received in December since there's only one endcap that asks for those fixtures..

This is what it was for. It's on the visual adjacency (yellow map). Most likely front endcap, ours was the only non-lit front endcap in the makeup sections.

Tell me about it. I'm three pieces short on the cribs/strollers/high chairs. One short on bottles. One of the monitor displays shattered. Carriers are up. But that's mostly done. Makeup will be end of week after overnight for c9. Two pallets for transcend crap. Actual ism pallet from last Friday. Two more came today. Including the empl replacement ism. We have a BIG visit Friday due to the c9 and assorted other projects.
But no overtime yet...
My store had the indie mascara change to a transcend endcap early in 2015, we just don't have another endcap to use the stuff on.
Also, did anyone whose team set naturals see that it's adding another four foot section? And did they send you the backpanels for that? I'm missing a ton of signing, including naturals but backpanels don't seem like something they'd miss.

How awful was it? Mine's tonight and the crew they got is not the best at pog/adjacency/zoning but we're willing to work an overnight...hoping people from other stores coming are better. Otherwise I'm swan diving from the wav.

Was given the executive order to just order it and be done with it. Yeah, SAP is down until Feb 1st. 😎 Innit just special? On the up side, my list is all compiled and ready to go! Just have to sit down & punch numbers 😀 and cosmetics is off to a running snail!!! Fun times!
