(...) Which one? :) I was at the Walmart on Welland/Bunting. They had the Shuttle Discovery for $50, as well as the Spiderman Final Showdown, and the (Gravity Games)Snowboard Superpipe (all marked down from $70). Benjamin Medinets (21 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

FYI- The local St. Catharines Walmart has #7470-1: Space Shuttle Discovery marked down to $50.00 They had a ton of them in stock, marked down as final clearance. Don't know if this is everywhere or just there. -Rob A> (21 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
