Pin Boards in DLR stores?

I like trading with cast members but something about seeing a cork board of pins for trade in stores is always something I look for. I've only seen it at Westward Trading in Frontier Land and the store by Little Mermaid in DCA (between grizzly river rapids and the entrance to the pier)

Are there any other pin trading boards in other stores? Just so I know whether or not to ask at the store in case they're hiding it
 
There is (usually) a pin board in Little Green Men (the store you go through when exiting Astroblasters), a pin board/doll with a lanyard in the Star Wars store across from Little Green Men, and a pin board in the store you go through when exiting Tower of Terror. Oh! And in the big Disney store that is at the end of Main Street (the one right next to the fire station) there are usually two-three pin boards in the corner of the store. Most of the time, we have to ask to see them but sometimes they are sitting out.

Stephen and I have sometimes found that stores will randomly acquire a pin board. We've been through some stores down Buena Vista Street that we had previously never seen a pin board there and then poof, one appeared on a day we were pin trading. So we usually make a point of just walking through the stores and checking at the cash registers just in case! :)
 
pin boards come and go. Sometimes they are at the Emporium on Main Street, sometimes not. Sometimes they are at the store near TSMM, sometimes not. It's weird.
 
So do you all think its just random whether some stores get it or not? The two stores I've seen em at always seem to have one, even when it's not displayed but I just have to ask.

But thanks for the list so far! I'll make sure to check em all out and ask if they have a board in a few days


Edit: has anyone seen a pin book/binder for trade at the stores? I thought I might have seen one at DTD but I looked away for a second and it was gone. I couldn't tell if it belonged to the store or the customer. But I do remember the customer flipping through all the pages, so he must've been looking for something. I dunnoooo

I do think there might be a few pin books that are for trade at the stores. In the Star Wars store at the back where the arcade used to be, there is a small binder with traders in it but it's usually never out so we always have to ask. And I think some stores have fairly permanent pin boards like Westward Ho, whereas other stores may switch back and forth. :)
