I just learned every month there is a different FNM promo, I didn't know that because they don't give them out at mine. Does yours, and do they give them out weekly or once a month?
I use avacyn's pilgrim and that promo looks pretty sweet to me.
My old shop gave out as random foils. To 2-3 random people that didn't make top.
I guess each shop decides how because I asked a friend and he says his shop gives them to the top 2
Top 8 in standard and top 4 in draft get promos at my lgs. I got {Avaycn Pilgrim} and {Restoration Angel} at my last fnm.
Everyone who goes to mine gets one. They even have them for some of their other events such as Monday drafts or similar. All attending players to such drafts even get pw points.

You my friend have a nice store.
In all honesty the stores get a decent amount of them. It is up to the store on how to destibute them.

If you check the WotC website you can find info on gameday and launch party events on what cards are being given away and how they are supposed to be distributed.

Then call WotC and report them.
Not even I am that big of douche. I was just pointing out some stores don't follow the supposed to be handed out like so to the letter. Most stores have different variations and it depends on how much influence wizards has on them
Not sure on how asking for something you are supposed to get from winning is being a douche. But if you like being ripped off feel free
Fnm promos at my shop are supposed to be given to the top 2 players and then 2 random people. I've never seen the two random ones ever given out.. Just sayin
My store gives em out to all attending players. I went in once, on like a Tuesday, hung out, played some games, asked about the promo of the month. The guy gave me one for the past 6 months. Said they just have so many, they can't sell em. So he just gives em away like a predator with candy

That's an awful analogy.

I got a couple {acidic slime}s promo at my fnm a while back. I saw this girl playing a deck that used them, so I gave her the promos, thinking I would never use them, and just recently had to trade for a play set of them for a deck I'm building. Lol. Oh well. She was really happy with them.
Where I play everyone gets a promo that entered and played the entire tourney.
Top 8 gets 2 promos
Top 4 gets 2 promos and 2 packs
1st gets 3 promos and 5 packs
That's how it usually happens at FNM's here.

What store is that? I wanna go there
It's in Tennessee, I think the owner does that because he's in competition with another shop on the other side of town.for prereleases both shop usually go nuts with prizes.
