Yeah, but I passed up on these tonight. They were there for the
taking but a) I have enough regular bricks (maybe not as much as you,
but I have more than enough to fill up a few of the 66-quart sterilite
tubs) and b) people are paying less for bulk bricks now than they used
to, from what I've seen. So while I wouldn't have minded having a few
more 1x8's in black and white, I didn't see all the sorting and such
as worth it to just make my money back in bulk sales.
Glad lots of other people thought them a great deal, though.
