I picked up 2 sets, and they were marked as $85.94 (I think) on the shelf tag. They rang up for that too. I opened the ad and showed it at the register, saying that the ad says that they're $30. He looked at it for a second or two and said "you're right", and adjusted the price to $30 each...

I did not pick up a heroica game for $7, but did grab: 7930 Bounty Hunter Assault Gunship $18.50 2283 Witch Doctor $11.00 7051 Tripod Invader $9.00 7059 Genosian Starfighter $13.50 I wish they would've had the Marina, since I actually want one of those. I already had the Tripod Invader, but it was h...

The Coralville, IA Walmart has 3 AC Motherships left in the clearance aisle for $29.50 each (50% off). They're marked at $45 but ring up at $29.50. There's a Harry Potter set that rings up with a discount (The $49.99 Hogwards set). I think it rings up at $39, but not enough of a discount to make me ...

I did not know that. I figured that using it would flag your membership with having used the particular code.

Tempting... They have 6 or so of these things left here locally.

Nice! Picked one up over lunch using the 20% coupon: $34.65 including tax. It was the only set in this series I didn't have yet. I'm tempted to pick up another one with the 15% coupon but really don't need duplicate sets. Now do I build this thing soon or save it and give it to my son for Christmas?

Now they are tempting me to go back to the store today with a $5 coupon. I'm tempted to pick up another mini crane with it which becomes 25% off that way. Or just use it to get another base plate for $1. Where's this $5 off coupon come from? It was in an email last night for TRU rewards members.

I picked up 3 blue base plates at $5.99 each (1 free, so that made each plate cost $4) and 3 of the series 8 evil robots at effectively $2.12 each. Not bad. Beyond that I didn't see anything worthwhile. Possibly the Cars Big Bentley Bustout 8639 at $59.99 each which would put them at $40 each if I g...

Been looking forward to this sale. I'm disappointed Technic isn't part of it as I was hoping to stock up on some mini cranes (great parts at the price) or possibly grab another motorized crane, crawler and unimog (one of those for effectively $10 would be a good deal). Oh well. The other sets I'd li...

I received the part today, and they sent me the correct (4728) part. My Grand Emporium is now exactly how it should be :).

I tried to make it clear (and responded once more to the letter they send me), but I'm not sure they fully understand the problem with the part. The Lego rep wrote: I'm sorry that the part looks different from what is shown in your building instructions. I reviewed both design IDs you provided and l...

I like the drawers method myself. I've gone with the more expensive "Alex" drawers from Ikea recently. The 6-drawer units are great, can be easily moved around (until you start stacking them anyway) and make a nice display surface too. The drawers are 16"x23" (3 of them roughly 2...

Is it me or has the quality control at Lego gone downhill recently? I've never had a problem with missing pieces before last week, and now in the span of a week, the last 3 large sets I've put together all had issues. 1) Grand Emporium: The flower piece on top was the wrong kind (closed stud instead...

I grabbed an Ultimate build Mater ($14.50) as well as an Alien Mothership ($29.50) and the copter from that series ($19.50), all at 50% off MSRP the other day. They had several more Maters and Motherships, but I can't really justify having duplicate boxed sets sitting in my basement. It's bad enough...

Although some Targets are showing that they are available, it could be fruitless to make the trip! My local target shows available, but I went there and they explained that their's are street dated for the 9th! It would probably be best if you called and present them with the DCPI number first, to ...

Got the catalog, but no coupon (I never have seen a coupon in any of them before either). There's a Promo Code on the back that lets Lego know that you're ordering from the catalog, but entering it as a promo code just gives an error on the website. I ended up buying the Fire Brigade simply because ...

Hi. I'm Wim. I'm originally from The Netherlands but have been living in Iowa for the past 11 years now. As a kid I loved Lego (especially Space Lego, and once the Technic Lego started appearing, Technic) but I stopped playing with it in my teenage years. It wasn't until I found a sale on the Ferrar...
