That is sweet, it would have been funny watching someone wheel 8 1/6 jeeps around! How many carts did you use? LOL!

You guys think this was an isolated error or is there a chance that they could all drop to $15.00?

Well..........

........around here (Chicagoland) they have yet to hit the seldom reported $35.00 price. The few Walmarts that have any are still at $49.00.
Since we have several people stating they paid $35.00 I tend to believe that claim.
Now we hear an isolated report of $15.00.
This I would like to see the receipt for.
(somehow I doubt we will)

Is there a chance?

Sure. Most anything is possible.

Will it become a reality?

I doubt it.

If they ever hit $35.00 here I will buy all that I can find so there is no chance they will ever hit the $15.00 mark, at least at the 12-15 W/W around me........................

I don't doubt that he's telling the truth, but I'm sure that it was an isolated incident and wasn't an intentional price drop.

.......somehow I kinda figured something like that would happen.


Too bad for us I guess. I was going to copy the scan and take it to one of our Walmarts to see if they would price match. :-P

Does it really matter to you if he shows you the reciete or not?I mean,what good does it do to you if he does show it to you and it says he got it for $15?Your gunna bye a plane ticket over to Maryland to buy it for $15?If he got it for 15,then great deal,if not,he's pulling your leg,for his reasons.Dont get on him for not showing you a reciete

Because I asked, I guess it does. It's an 'inquiring minds' kind of thing.

Quite probably the same "reason" I would like to have seen the receipt!

There ya go........maybe we can find out which Walmart it was so adrift can get a couple.

Can we at least find out which store it is???

I never said he didn't get them for the reported $15.00, I just said

I clearly expect to get a report of a Walmart somewhere giving them away free next.
Then quite possibly they will be paying us to take them.

That's great! So this un-named Walmart has only one person that bought any Nylints from them, that's you, for $15.00. So, being the customer freindly store that they are, they will ship them in from another store that has them for $49.00 and sell them to you for $15.00.
Now that is retail genious at it's best!

And to top that you already know that they will be 4th generations!
Simply amazing.

My hat's off to you................it has to be true because you could not make up a story that good.

Because (sp) is not a reason, it is an excuse.

he gave me crap
I find some irony in that statement.........
