Hmm...I've found the FNF at WM for $40, the Amazon Ancient Ruins for about
half price, got a River Expedition for $20, Sphinx Secret Surprise for $9, Air
Zeppelin for $9, the WM 'special bonus pack for $14...and I have to compete

the Auczilla buyers, so I'd say that they're out there.
(Are you sure you're looking in WM's clearance aisle and not just their toy
section? Also, I've noticed that a lot of WMs have a 'toy clearance' section
and then another clearance section, often nearby, which frequently has some LEGO
tucked into it.)

lugnet.market.shopping is where I look (and post).
