Sounds like you got a good deal. Are they half off because they are not carrying 'train stuff' anymore or just trying to clear out old inventory for new?
They had a sale last year too at this time of year. I remember because I was broke from Xmas. SO this year I asked for gift cards and got them. So like my boy gave me a $25 dollar card and I got $50 worth of stuff . I love it when a plan comes together. DASH
