Found them in the camping area on a end-cap hanging box (Hayward, WI). A little less than $20 IIRC, only PR-type replacements. Seemed like there were more 3 and 4 cell 'bulbs' than 2 cell. If I were marketing them in a Wal-Mart, in the six peg box they had, I'd do 3-2 cell, 2-3 cell and 1-4 cell (maybe no 4 cell) replacement. Nice slick box, like I said six pegs in the box, standard welded 'clam-shell' (maybe about 3.5x3.5, but that is from a poor memory :) )

The 'fit and finish' didn't look all that good. The emitters didn't look like they were well centered. All I can say is though the packaging was slick, it lacked a 'finished look'. My guess is it was a rushed project.
Sorry for the vague comments. I was on a quick in and out, even then a trip through the flashlight area is required :) .
Anyone else see these? Is this a late report?
