workplace, if I don't get caught by those trains (*&#*(^(!_) and the Big
K-Mart there was about 10% of most items, and then maybe a few 20 and 30%
off. Electronics and toys were both 10%.

I started looking through the hap-hazard LEGO department, and found out
something somewhat disturbing. Most of the sets, whether it is really old or
not, has about a 10% markup over the retail price, so if I bought anything,
it would be about the same amount as buying it from another vender. I also
saw 3 7121 on clearance for 7.00. What a joke. No wonder K-Mart is going under.

I guess I will wait until they come down further, maybe I should go to the
one in Niles, and see if there is a difference.
