I went to the one closing in my area(state) last night they had some
LEGO at 20% off "original ticketed price". Some of it wasn't ticketed
at all :^) Anyways the 20% applies only to regular priced items not
clearance priced ones, too bad they would have sold a few sets to me
if it applied :^\ They had a bunch of the smaller Star Wars sets a
few town sets, some Pooh, a smattering of Rock Raiders and the ones
that surprised me, Dino Adventures! and the little portable Soccer
goal thingee. They only had the little car one, the small glider
thingee and one of the float plane one... Sorry I'm just being too
lazy to look up set #'s here :^) So if you are near a KMart that is
closing, check it out you MIGHT be surprised....
