Was just cruising through the electronics dept at my local Fred Meyer and noticed 32x TDK 50pc spindles for 19.95 with a $10 mail in rebate, limit 3 per household. About half the spindles were made in Taiwan, but the others had the telltale screw on retaining cap and were "made in Japan". I haven't verified that these are Taiyo's yet (will pick up a spindle tomorrow), but they certainly appear to be so. YMMV.
Update - Stopped back in and these are now $14.99 with the $10 rebate! Glad I waited till today......picked up two.
BTW, this is in the Seattle area..not sure how widespread the FM chain is. And I did verify these are Taiyo 32x certified. Might work for you lucky ones that have the 40x burners.
