Watch closely, one day they might be gone! The Wal-Mart near me had about
half a dozen of the Time Cruisers lab set (sorry don't remember exact name
or number and am currently sitting on an airplane so it is a bit difficult
to look it up) for $60 for a long time. Then one day all six were gone. At
the same time another person in North Carolina reported that he found the
same set on clearance at a Wal-Mart in North Durham for $10! I always
assumed the ones near me went on clearance as well and someone got a really
good deal. There is another Wal-Mart that still has four or five of them at
full price. That store is too far a way to monitor on any kind of a regular
basis though.
