ISO deal on Power Wheels Dune Racer

[MommyofAmaya]

I THINK that they are discontinuing the green model: http://www.amazon.com/Power-Wheels-Dune-Racer-Green/dp/B004M2BINA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1403542902&sr=8-1&keywords=dune+racer

and replacing it with the new red model:http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Power-Wheels-Boys-Racer/dp/B00IVDVWVO/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1403543178&sr=1-2&keywords=dune+racer

I was hoping to find a deal on the green model but I haven't seen ANY type of discount so far- everywhere besides Amazon charges an oversize ship fee that kills any deals available.

I cannot pay full price but I would probably pull the trigger at regular price with no tax at this point. Any ideas?

Our local supermarkets (Shop Rite) usually clearances them out at the end of summer for under $200. I sent DH for milk and he came back with the green model for about $160 a couple of years back. :ROTFLMAO:We saw them last summer too.

So far we have picked up all of our Power Wheels at Kmarts. The dune racer there is a blue one exclusive to them (Hot Wheels version). I got it when they offered a 10% back in points promo if you put it on layaway. It had to be on layaway for a certain number of days (2 or something) so I just came back as soon as my waiting period was up and paid it off.

My mom just found a Cadillac Escalade at the Uniontown, PA store for $279 last night. Actually just coming to post that deal here! YMMV - she thought from the way it was tagged that it was an attempt to get it out of the store because it had been there a while.

The Hot Wheels version is actually the one we want- unfortunately, we do not have Kmart here and it is unavailable for shipping to my zip from either Sears or Kmart. I am planning to buy the decals from the Hot Wheels version and put them on the green or red one- which is why I want to save at least $20.

We don't have Shop-Rite either- and I need before July 7th so I can't wait till end of summer.

Thanks to you both for the tips though.

Oh, boo! Hmmm... What about a Toys R Us price match? I'll keep my eye out!
