For the most part, my family & I have found this year's post-holiday shopping has been a big let down. A lot of things were marked down the week before Christmas and fairly well picked over even before any would-be clearance sales on Dec. 26. But sometimes....patience pays off.
I knew that Toys 'R' Us was going to have the Peanuts wooden train set (think Brio-style) by Round 2 Toys, but at $29.99, I was a little dissuaded. Just before Christmas, it went on sale for $19.99, and I almost bit. Being to busy getting things ready for the big day, though, the sale got past me. So I checked again on Dec. 26th, and the price...sigh...was back to $29.99. For no good reason other than pure curiosity, I decided to check one more time just before the new year and guess what? It's now $7.50, so for anybody who may be interested...here ya go!
