I have recently become addicted to the clearance shelves at WalMart and cannot pass through a store without checking the few areas where the shelves are located. The best find so far is my Moultrie 2" video display for $13 (reg price $50).
Anyhow, while on a mission the other day for my daughter's costume (Statue of Liberty this year, was the Liberty Bell last year...can you guess my daughter's name?) I came across something on the clearance shelf for 50 cents. It was a "Jonas Brothers Digital Blue Music Mix Clip" meant for use with one of Disney's music players. It appeared to be a standard SD card so for 50 cents I had to know what size it was. Sure enough, it is a standard 512MB SD card. Will work great with the Propeller
JoAnns Fabric stores also has some good deals on things that you may not expect. I recently bought two of these cases by Plano marketed as craft storage because the same thing as tackle boxes or regular storage cost a lot more at Walmart, Sprotsmans Warehouse, etc. They had them on sale at 50% two weekends ago. I bought two of them and most of my Parallax toys fit nicely in them.
Anyone else addicted to clearance shelves at a particular local store?

BIG ENTERTAINMENT digital media contains Malware.
DRM viruses can disable disc drives. (see SONY ROOTKIT...they lost the worldwide lawsuits but still distribute viruses. )
