I bought 4 for myself and kindly left the rest, hard (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

I read on lugnet.market.shopping that there was a 20% off sale at Kmart that was to end today (12/12) so I went down to see what I could find. I found no 20% off sale, but I did find some marked-down sets: <set:6478 Fire Fighers' HQ> from 2000, was (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.space)

The rant is fine, and yes, you can find some good deals at some of the sloppiest of stores. But you can't lay all the blame on K-Mart (And I'm not suggesting that was anyone's intention). The toy sections are usually a mess, but it's not because (...) (23 years ago, 12-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)
