Do any of you all have some storage to spare? , I mean a lot?

How much space are you looking for?

Well I can afford to hold longer now but I don't really have the space. Maybe 200 square feet. Maybe we could do something like a co-op.

Wanted to get this thread going agian to see who else is in Northern California. Can help coordinate any potential trades, helping each other out. Most importantly, given the limited # of Walmarts and deals, a nice way to keep each other updated so none of us make treks to Walmarts that are already cleared.

I'm in East Bay and within 20 min of Martinez Walmart.  I've only ventured to the Antioch/Brentwood Walmart once.  I can say with fair confidence that these suck in terms of LEGO clearance...in the past 6 months of actively looking I've not bought a single LEGO on clearance because there wasn't any (AFAIK). I ventured to the Antioch store at the peak clearance time in January and not a single set was on sale and most medium and large sets were still behind glass w/ anti-theft wire...even the crappy <$100 sets! I've basically given up on these stores and only visit when doing a pick-up.

I've had better luck ast Targets around here...but mostly 35% off range stuff.

I'm in North Bay and purely based on timing have had success in the Richmond store. This time around successfully cleared out Suisun City.

Martinez was empty.
