I told my kids 7th grade science teacher about this and we're ordering 2 bulk packs of Alpha III's and a bulk pack of A8-3's for the kids' science project. I'll help them out with assembly and launch. I pointed her to Estes' Educator site for all the lesson plans.

I decided to pick up a few things. I hope they do this every year!

BTW, don't forget to factor in sales tax. They add it after you punch in your credit card info.

Our 4-H club picked up 2 - 24 packs of B6-4 & 3 - Blast off packs and 12 Alpha III.
I purchased 12 Alpha III & 12 Wizards, I like having extra kits and built rockets at our launches
for give-a-ways to kids.

In addition to scoring a nice bargain on LPR motors, I'm also helping my local scouts by tagging them on my account profile/checkout so they get a tiny slice of the order value.

I'd bet these won't last long--this forum alone probably wipes out 100+ bulk packs over the next day or two.

Hey, that was me!
I wasn't trying to keep the information from YORF, I posted it on TRF and had to run out before I had the chance to share the info here!
I'm glad Scott (Ltvscout) got the information up.

I just checked the Scout Stuff website and they are not listing bulk pack B6-4s.
The B6-4s seem to be gone.

Still on the site are bulk packs of 1/2A3-4ts, A8-3s, C6-5s and Blast Off variety packs.

All the 12 packs of Alpha IIIs, Gnomes, Vikings and Wizards are still listed.

It's great so many organizations and schools are able to take advantage of these prices.

The website kept timing out, so I called up Customer Service and ordered 3 packs of A8-3s and 3 packs of C6-5s through them directly. The customer service rep was friendly and fast. I think I spent maybe 3 minutes getting it all done despite the short wait and too-loud announcements during the hold time.

Three rockets built, three in the works, three still in bags and two on the board. I needed some motors. The "Blast-Off" Packs covered some bases.

I just saw the 24 pack of B6-4's on the site...hit 'add to cart'...held my breath...and it went through! Hopefully I don't get a message saying it was an error, but it appears they've got a few more in stock. Around a buck an engine, AND it helps the scouts? Win - win!
