Yeah, the selection wasn't very good, but I did pick up a few things:
2751: Duplo Eggs - got one of each color - $1.99 (50% off actual msrp).
2827: The Strawberry Festival - a Duplo set I hadn't seen before. Picked one
up for the butterfly, since I have all the other 'Forest Friends' animals -
$14.99 (actual msrp is $24.99 - TM claiming $29.99 IIRC).
5956: Adventurer's Air Zeppelin - glad to find this as I missed out on the
S@H special several weeks ago - $9.99 (50% off actual msrp).
6575: Polar Base - $29.99 (50% off actual msrp).
So, a few good deals, but not great.

| (...) When I stopped by Tuesday evening at our closest TM, the polar bases were sold out, (I wasn't going to buy one this time at $30, although I like the white baseplates), no Air Zeppelins...shucks! only a stock of sets mentioned in previous posts (...)
