Smallville Season Sets at $18...

I'm in PR right now.
I went to Sam's Club and found out they were selling each Season at $18.
So of course I went ahead and buy all the ones I could.
At first I just bought Seasons 1, 2, 4 and 5....
Then went to look in other Sam's for the rest (3 and 6) but none of them had them for sale.
Today I went again and found out they had more in stock; including Season 6.
Funny thing is that the price labels say the original price is $40.
... even the web site.
Aside from Walmart that sells each Season around that price any other store sells them between $50 and $60.
Can anyone explain me why Sam's selling them at $18?

Could have just been a week-long sale, or something...
I think 1-5 (or 1-6?) are on sale for 18-19 dollars at Best Buy this week.
BTW, if you didn't know, Sam's Club is part of Wal-Mart (in a manner of speaking), so sometimes they might use the same prices.
Smallville comes on sale for ~$20 bucks every now and then, if you watch the ads. Usually the newest season won't be that low, but the others will.

I already know that about Wlamart-Sam's however there's no way they would ever sale the series at $18.
And don't know about a special week sale or "cleareance" since I thought of that possibility but having seen that they got lot's of new stockm that's not an option.
So I don't know.
PS
Does Walmart do price match?

Actually Wal-Mart sold all the current sets for 19.99 for about two weeks, about two-three months ago. I bought them since they were cheap ofcourse. They have also sold ILLucy sets for the same price, along with X-Files.

Last year Wal-Mart also had all the sales for a few at 18 bucks, I was shocked to see them back at 40 recently, I expect the new season to be around 40 when it comes out in 2 weeks and I will be getting it

Lately Wal-Mart has been a rip-off when it comes to new releases getting cut backs on price. Usually they will have new movies cut down to around 15.99 the first week but mine rarely does it anymore. And I remember when they first came out with tv dvd sets they would have a special on them for a couple of days.

Target has Seasons 1-6 marked at 18.99 (regular price now?) This *MAY* still be a sale that goes off in a week or two, or it may be around for a while.

Costco also has Smallville season 1 to 6 at $18.99 or something like that, but the new season 7 is still regular price I'll buy season 7 when it goes down in price.
