Kmart had a Sale on last week, 6291 was $49.50 marked down from $99
But it was very hard to get any, Even in my small town without a large
number of AFOL's i was only able to get 3 copies. and they were the last
three on the shelf.
I have read that in the capital cities it was even worse, if you didn't get
one very early in the week you missed out....
