I was looking for it while i was there then i asked "where is it?" and the guy response "ill go get it out of the back", well im wait for about 10 minutes thinking "great i bet they sold out" so the the guy come back and says this "it your lucky day it end up were trying to get rid of these" "my jaw dropped..."
