Oh. Oops. I thought that sale goes in the order as shown in the picture. Better fix the title! Thanks for the heads up.

I believe you're right! I think the last couple of times it was actually the last day of the sale for LEGO.

Hmm... some of the banner ads I have seen (incl. TNB) make me think it's Wednesday as LEGO is positioned right in the middle and Playmobil as the first... hopefully HP sets are included in the sale. Will be sort of the last opportunity for some of the sets.

Unfortunately, HP will not be on sale. Included sets are:

LEGO will most likely be tomorrow then - I don't think it's an exhaustive list in the small print. Wouldn't make sense to not include HP - it's pretty much EOL and they still need to clear - plus they have LOTR in there... hoping for it to be included!

Err what? :what?: If that's true then it has to be the worst BF sale for Chapters and not cool. I was going to snatch some of the Superhero stuff. :evil: I just hope that you're wrong Brandon.

^ Considering that Black Friday is on the 23rd, I'm pretty sure this a Black Friday sale. It's right on par with the other sales they have throughout the year.

Just sayin'.

Odd - there are only a select few sets on sale right now. Maybe they are working on it - but there are currently only two LOTR sets on sale.

Seems like that is the sale - sort of disappointing... I took the liberty to mark the 'sale' items.

Yesterday, the fine print on the sale said that Monster fighters would be included, and all Lord of the RIngs. I call bullsh*t on this one. Bait and switch it might not be, but its not cool either.

^I fully agree. Clearly they must have determined that they are running low on stock and not to put these sets on sale. It's not exactly a witness to fine business practices. To be honest, I would have expected better from Chapters.

Well in the fine print that Legobrandon quoted in his initial post, it does say, "Offer may change or end at any time without notice". And that's exactly what happened. Yeah, I know it sucks, but they're well within their right to change the terms of the promo because of that little disclaimer.

Thems the breaks in the world of retail.

^Absoloutely - they are within their rights. It's just not fine business practices. Chapters was usually one of the companies in the better books.

This sale is even weaker than the one they had just a few weeks ago.

It wasn't too, too bad - as good as it usually gets for Canadian sales (for non-clearance items).
