Kyle,
You guessed right, it was at Zellers, but a "Special Zellers". The one at
Sparks St and O'Connor here in Ottawa. I do not understand the way they do
clearence sales there but let's just say they are Special.:-) The set was
marked down to $99.99 then another 30% off because it was a clearence toy item.
:-)
They also have a Cargo Railway <set:4559> in stock but it is not marked down,
it is just 15% off the $149.99 price tag. Weird, eh?
There still is another 4561 in stock, but alas I have broken my budget already
so one will have to do. Darn!
As a side note, I saw *NEW* Race sets marked as clearence in other stores in
the city. I think there are "special" staff around this city now.
The secret is out and the race is now on. If anyone gets the set as a result of
this post please let me know.
Jude
Choo, Choo!!!!
