I've noticed that even the 'bargain bin'
area that used to be
tucked back in one corner of most stores seems to be gone as well.
Used to be able to get some cool older discontinued stuff from that
section, including Model 2000 stuff. Unfortunately I also passed on
a portable disk drive in the same area at one point.
One of the shacks near me still has that bin every year after christmas.
It is nothing more than a big cardboard box full of broken or unpackaged
items from the year. They also put all the unsold, or returned xmas gifts
with it (which makes up a bulk of it, so is why I assume it shows up
after xmas every year).
