I was strolling through walmart and lo and behold, a brand new shipmet of motors for $3 a pack. I gotta start saving my money.
I gotta start saving my money.
Are local Walmart cleared out the rocket stuff a few months ago and nothing has been restocked. I am wondering if the love affair between Wally World and Estes is over ? It appears to me they arent going to carry anything.

Oh ... as an aside, I also picked up a Maxtor 750 Gb OneTouch 4 external hard drive on clearance for $90! I now have 19 hard drives (about 4.5 Tb total) in use in my house! They are inside of (or connected to) four computers, three DVRs, two MP3 players, and two cameras.

I gotta ask. Why?
Obviously you don't use computes like we do. Even with two digital cameras and lots of writing, multiple backups to my hard drive still only fills my one external backup 500 GB hard drive less than one third full.
What the heck are you storing on all those drives?
$3? I haven't seen anything cheaper than 4.95, even at Wal-mart! But unfortunately I haven't seen any rocket engines at Wal-mart lately.
I wen overboard. I went on a local tour of 6 Wallmarts
I bought 8 Astrobeams at $6-9 a kit and 39 packs of engines at $1.50 a box. I also bought a number of other kits at $3-15 a kit. The deals are out there.
... I edit videos and have a RAID system on that computer for speed...
