This supplement and the other mini supplement ($9.95 'Revenge of the Dead') are both available from the flying frog site, but you have to go here:
http://stores.homestead.com/FlyingFrogProductions
(yes, it doesn't look like flyingfrog.net, but you can get to this same place by going from the flyingfrog.net webstore link, available here: http://www.flyingfrog.net/lastnightonearth/ just click the 'web-store' button on the flyingfrog site takes you to a homestead site, where you can search)
http://stores.homestead.com/FlyingFrogProductions/Catalog.bo...
Once on the homestead site, you have to either go to the Advanced Search page, or once on the above page set the dropdown box to Last Night on Earth, and then just click search, it will pull up 14 entries.
On page 2 is where the little mini-expansions are found.
Or you can click the first link I provided. If it was me, i'd feel safer going the manual route (starting from flyingfrog.net) so feel free to do it either way.
It took me a while to find them, so I figured I'd post a guide on how to get them for anyone else who is interested. Shipping in the USA was only $3-$4 via Priority Mail for both mini supplements, so that isn't too bad.
Edit: to address the posts below mine, the board-game-geek site truncated the web address, so it went to a 'dead' URL. I have fixed the top post so it goes to the generic FlyingFrog Store on Homstead.com, however, again, feel free to start with google, find flyingfrog.net and then find their webstore. Their site(s) are terrible, which is why I put up this guide.

Site is down. Looks like you were right, it's a scam.

Following the path from Flying Frog's store, Stock Up is here:
http://stores.homestead.com/FlyingFrogProductions/Detail.bok...
So, no scam, and the site is up.

Well, like i said, start from the flyingfrog site if you're worried about legitimacy, I would, and I even posted how to get the supplement!
I never take anything at face value on a forum, particularly when it looks suspicious. The flying frog site is about as unprofessional as it can possibly be (google it yourself, and start from step 0), and they have outsourced their online sales portion to the homestead site. I don't know why, but they did.
As Wulf has posted, the site is up, it isn't a scam, and I have no vested interest in FlyingFrog nor 'Homestead'. Personally I think FlyingFrog using a second domain for their online sales is shoddy and unprofessional at best, confusing and misleading at worst, which is why I suggested starting from flyingfrog.net.
I had a hard time finding the supplements, so i posted how I found them.
BTW, they did arrive in under a week, and I am enjoying them. The Stock Up scenario is very hero-biased, while the other scenario is very zombie biased, but both are fun.

I'm not a fan of companies making use of shopping cards hosted by another party with a different domain name and feel it's pretty unprofessional as well. The cart system is terrible (if I selected to pay by credit card, the system would reject my postal code saying it wasn't valid which is nonsense, but had no problem with it when I selected PayPal) and I got no order confirmation from it (just the standard PayPal payment receipt), so I had no idea if it was going to show up or not. I did, however, receive my two expansions yesterday, only a littler over a week after ordering them (shipped to Canada so it took a little longer).
So no, the site's not a scam, but it's certainly not professional. I'm not happy with the shopping experience, but at least they're here and arrived in perfect condition.
Love Flying Frog. Hate Homestead.

Yes. The end result of getting the items quickly in exhcnage for money was professional. The experience and and presentation of getting to that stage, however, was not (along with not knowing if my order was even placed during that time - it could have been the PayPal transaction had happened with no order being properly committed to their database). I was trying to present this as a warning that the ordering system (Homestead) itself is the unprofessional piece that left me wondering if my order was ever placed, not Flying Frog.
