I found the set #'s to two of the Mega-Blok buckets: 974 and 976. I
couldn't get to the other ones because they had been put away. These are the
same buckets I've seen in Wal-Mart for $10.
I underestimated when I said we had 300 buckets. We only have 109.
However, I checked the inventories of other stores around the country, and most
have about 200 buckets. That's quite a lot considering that they were supposed
to be gone by the end of the Christmas season. The 2 closest stores to ours
had inventories of 268 and 195.
