I live in Brooklyn,NY and we don`t have Walmart Stores.I got
the filters at Home Depot and they cost under 75c each, tax
included (cheap for NY). Home Depot puts away their Summer
stock after the season ends, as do most stores, to get ready
for the Fall and Winter. I will be looking for any clearance
sales next September. THANKS AGAIN Pete
