I agree.  K-Marts are some of the trashiest stores.

I'll have to agree on this too.  I just went into a Kmart for the first time
in a long time yesterday and let's just say I was shocked at the toy isle.
It looked like bomb went off in there.

However, I have
typically found a majority of my good deals here.

Care to share any deals that you've noticed recently besides the pod racer
buckets?
All I can say is look for sets that are over a year old.  Sometimes I get
lucky.  I will just check a store from time to time and maybe scan an older
set or two to see if it has been reduced but not marked.  That is the first
deal I have seen in a while.  Most of the ones I see get posted by someone here.

Was the 20% sale advertised in a circular because I didn't see any signs in
the isle so i didn't buy anything.
I didn't hear anything about this either.  The whole reason I went shopping
yesterday at lunch was because of the post from a fellow Charlestonian that
started this thread.  The K-Mart that I went to had everything at regular
price, whereas the one he went to had everything 25% off.

On an additional note, the Kmart I went to had a few of the 2002 sets which
was surprising to see admist the chaos.  Just Alpha Team and Racers.
Mine too.  They had a few new Racers, and the Alpha Team squid thing.  I
picked up one of those.  I was suprised to see this as well.  Usually it is
Toys R Us that gets new stuff first, but not this time.
