The Kmart BF 5 hour sale is Buy One, Get One 50% off.  Still not as good a deal as

No doubt they're not as good a deal as the 4400s, 4679s and 4562s.  But in the
grand scheme of things, 400 pieces for $9 ($0.025/piece) or 800 pieces for
$13.50 on sale ($0.017/piece) is still pretty good.  The usual buckets and tubs
are no better at regular prices, and sometimes worse.  Given the relative
scarcity of half of the 400 pieces, I think we've been sated by the previous
"spring cleaning" sets.

My area K-Marts have priced them at $9.99. Deals at CVS with BOGOF, and the
Walgreens boxes are much better. Usually when WalMart had the small tubs like
this, they priced them low and watched them fly off the shelves by nine in the
morning. KMart still had tons of these left on the shelves at 11 am.
