Right now they are going for 119.90 at Target. And if they take a further reduction tomorrow they will be even less. The trick, of course, is to find a Target that still has them in stock!

Glad I am not alone on this matter.

The clearance LEGO on WalMart's website has been marked down again, and is now under the 50% level. Go to the Toys/LEGO page, and scan down for any price ending in "00" and those are the sale items.
