I got them at Wal-Mart. You can too, if you look hard enough and are
lucky enough.
That is the best (percentage-wise) clearance price I've gotten in over
2 years of constant diligence, though. Patience and diligence pay off
in the end.
Lots of people write me asking how I manage to find so many good
deals. I'd say a good part of it is luck, but a good part of the luck
is luck I make myself with those two traits - patience and diligence.
