(...) Lucky! The service desk at a local Target told me the that they were supposed to be 50% off (they were price checking at $9.99 still) so I grabbed all 18 unopened buckets they had.

Target was boasting a few markdowns and KMart was having a 20% off their usual selection of opened/maimed/crushed Lego product. Oh well... All it means is (...)

Never knew that Austin was some sort of RTLer Meccha. And your right, it is no wonder why good sets are hard to come by in this town. We're all in competition. However, I suggest working together, esp. during this upcoming "Lego" season (God Bless (...) (26 years ago, 23-Oct-98, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)

(...) I've found some good deals on discontinued sets at the KMart at Parmer and Mopac, and the KMart on 183 up near 620. Normally I buy from Wal-Mart, Target, K-Mart, and Shop @ Home (TRU trips are usually look and not buy). (26 years ago, 13-Oct-98, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.aus)
