It does not appear that etoys has the same discounts
Tru has, at least on the star wars items.

Not sure how long it'll last but Amazon (US) has the M-Falcon for $104.99 with free ship/and possible no tax. Took them a couple days to match TRU but at least it happened. My preference is the savings then the free stuff...so hopefully this helps out someone else too. This site is awesome btw.

Only TRU I found in my area to have the Batman Jetski is in NJ on route 4. They are priced at $5.49. For awhile the stores in NJ had no mark ups while the ones in NY had the usual markups.

I ordered the MF in-store; the manager made me a nice offer since I waited (im)patiently while they scoured the store for the 3 copies computer inventory showed should have been available. But weren't. It added the polybag but not the project case, so we'll see if they throw it in (in box or in store) or if I have to throw a tantrum.

The Friends project case is no longer showing up online. Also, the two items I suggested earlier - Hoth Echo base and Battle for Geonosis, both went up a few dollars since yesterday as now you get 20% off TRU markup (before was 20% off retail).

Is this offer good in-stores as well? I just made a $40 lego purchase today at Toys R Us and didn't receive the Batman Jetski.

I saw the promo text in the store today in three places. However most clerks won't hand you a free Batman Jetski automatically or mention it. You either have to find it on the shelf/hanging rack yourself and the register will discount automatically or you have to ask if they have any more behind the counter. Two years ago and before, they seemed to make sure you got the promos. But now days, they don't seem to care.

You'll probably need to go back in (bring receipt) and ask for your Batman Jetski. You might convince them to give you two for making you drive out again, but I've only gotten that extra treatment from restaurants.

They had the Airport set reduced to $78 for Fri-Sun only. I would have gone for it if there was no tax.

Yea, the Toys R Us by me is not really managed well. There were no signs about the promo today.

On top of that, they screwed up my 20% coupon that I used today. I bought some minifigs and the Samurai Mech. Instead applying it to the Mech, they applied it to a single Minifig :roll:.
I told the cashier to do 2 separate transctions, but she looked at the coupon and said "It's 20% off your entire purchase - trust me"
I thought the price was kind of high, but I didn't look at the receipt until I got home.
Turns out she was wrong, and I had to drive back just to save $10. Then it took the manager 20 minutes to straighten it out.

Oh, and I lost my receipt when I went to the post office today - guess I won't be getting that promo.

On another note, I wonder if it'd be acceptable if I showed them a printout of my rewards for proof of purchase.
