I bought very little, but still managed to get exactly what I went in for.
I picked up two copies of this bucket:

Initially I could only find one, but after some hunting about I spotted another
one on the MegaBloks side of the asile and grabbed it.
So that officially became the 1000 cheapest pieces I've ever bought. $7.49 per
bucket before tax. How can you beat that? So while I didn't buy a ton of stuff
I went home happy.

At least at the Zellers here, the problem is that they're still sitting on a lot
of old stock. Stuff that didn't sell well at full price and still isn't selling
well even after some of the other markdowns. There were Yodas available at the
store here, which I guess after the 50% off would have made them only $40 each.
But I'm not sure what I'd do with any more of those sand green plates. :)

And for some reason (at least here in Stratford) an unadvertised one.
I checked the flyer that came in our local paper - nothing mentioned there. I
checked all around the LEGO aisle and could see no signs or anything indicating
there was a sale on. Yet the scanner clearly marked these items as 'Sale' when
you checked the price.

Indeed. Fun to see this kind of blowout sale now and then.
Gail, thanks for the heads-up on this sale.
Best regards,
