Yep, there's an entire fairly long thread at TRF about this topic, here:

Back in early July, I bought 4 packs of B6-4's and 4 packs of C6-5's for $2.48 each. Then in mid-July, I bought 4 (or maybe 8) more for $2.48 each. Then in early August, I happened to be at the Target in Memorial City Mall in Houston, and they had 6 packs of B6-4's on clearance for $1.24 each, so I bought them. And at another store last week, I managed to pick up 9 packs of C6-5's and 7 packs of B6-4's for $1.24 each.
I think I'm done for now. Unless I stumble across more motors on clearance somewhere, of course.
~20 packs of B6-4's and ~22 packs of C6-5's could last me for a while.
