Wow, thats a good haul.

I managed to find 2 motorized ZNAP sets at a Zellers that Tim hadn't
cleaned out.

I have a question for those who have been sweeping up the ZNAP sets.
What the heck do you do with all the ZNAP pieces after salvaging the
motor?  I only have 2 sets - but 25 sets worth of ZNAP!  Thats a lot of
ZNAP! :)  Do you use it in MOCs?  Give it away?  Recycle it?

I also received my 1775's on Friday - another sweet set.  Here's hoping
Lego keeps the promo sets coming.  So far I have 1808, 2147, 1817, and
1775.  I would really like to get 1818, 1774, and the other airline sets
as well.
