Atlanis 8061 Gateway of the Squid $30 at Walmart
CAD MSRP $55. Yep it's an even better deal than at Winners last week ($39.99). Winners prices often are not that great - I returned the 2 I bought there.

I would take one at that price.
Would it be a good draft set? If there are lots out there?

It would be a good draft set in my opinion.

I'm at Queensborough Walmart and picked up a set for Daveed.
ETA: They had lots of stock, so I'm anticipating they'll drop the price again sometime in the future. A female Lego rep was there playing with the shelf tags.

Silly question from a Noob
What does Drafting mean?
Buying a set just for the pieces? Like Ive done with Log Cabin set?

1) Large quantity of sets (usually purchased at a discount)
2) Combine all the sets and sort pieces
3) Each person pays (total cost)/(# of participants) to take part
4) Roll dice to determine the picking order
5) Each person takes turns picking up a pile of pieces, until all the piles are taken.
This is a good way to get large amounts of a certain piece, depending on what set(s) are used in the draft.

One more question.. how are the piles sorted/determined?

The parts are sorted into piles of the same part in the same colour. For example if there were 10 1x2 blue bricks in a set and we were to get our hands on 5 of that set for the draft there would be a pile of 50 1x2 blue bricks. Now think of some of the great sets out there and the parts in them and imagine the piles.
Hope that helps. The best way to understand is to do.
Oh, and when you are new, there are no silly questions. Well, unless you ask if Mega Blo... are as good as Lego.
