On a day to day basis, Big W is the best place for Lego, if there's one near you; sets are usually 10% less than elsewhere, and old stock can go on sale for 40-60% off. Target's just had a 25% off sale, and (...) (24 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

Here's a rule of thumb, if it doesn't fit well, it's probably CA. If (...) (24 years ago, 21-Sep-00, to lugnet.general)
