Paul,
While I agree that at the $35 MSRP of the bundle it is not a good deal, I'd
just like to point out that their ad shows them on sale now for $20. Not a
spectacular deal, but alot more attractive than $35.

| Bob, Thanks for noting it. I'm afraid that the draw here for me (S@H) was the 50% off price. The Kohl's bundle is not a great deal in my opinion (saw it a couple of weeks ago), since it appears to me that the bundle is actually a higher total cost (...)
