I bought the last one at the West Laf store which they gave me for $4.00
since they couldn't find two more.  I thought that was very gracious of
them.  Every Walgreens I went to the clerks were super friendly, they must
give out happy pills at the start of each shift!

I had to go to Kokomo Thursday Afternoon where they had all the 4562's you'd
every want or could afford. The first Kokomo Walgreens had three cases and
then I went down to Carmel where they had three cases.  I left a few for
other AFOLs should they also be on the prowl for LEGO deals.

the 4562's out of the Walgreens?  I managed to snag one at each.


Last Saturday (Oct. 30) I bought three 4562's and left 2 at the Walgreens
on
Sagamore in West Lafayette.  Then I bought three and left one at the
Walgreens
on 18th street & Main

Originally it looked like each Walgreens store only had 1 tray with 6
boxes
each, making the total 4562 count for the Lafayette area 12.  I bought 6,
and
you bought 2.  That means that we AFOL's bought 67% of the 4562 stock.
Plus
that assumes that all of the other 4 were bought by kids or parents for
kids.
And LEGO thinks we make up less that 5% of their market?


It sounds like I hit both stores between you two.  With Walgreen's buy
two, get
one free, I didn't want to buy the last two on the west side, so I only
bought
one.  And, with only one in the LAF store, I decided against getting it.

How many did Brian get?  :)

I'll keep checking the Walgreens and post here or email you if I find
that
they've restocked.

I'd love to hear if they get more.
