Since LUGNET's Brickwise™ online shopping guide hasn't been current for some
time I thought I'd try posting my own Smart Shopper reports. I plan to
feature a store or group of stores and will generally only list items that
are at 25% off or greater savings.
(percentage off is based on LEGO's suggested retail, not KB's sometimes
inflated prices)

KBToys.com "Bestseller" sale (while supplies last):
http://www.kbtoys.com/kbsearch.html?head=BestsellerSaleLEGO&skeys=CO10069%20GP50401&place=ajyc&ls=toys
4177 - Building Stories w/NaNa Bird  $12.99 (57% off)
4980 - Tunnel Transport  $29.99 (40% off)
5533 - Red Fury $34.99 (30% off) SOLD OUT  :(
6453 - Com-Link Cruiser  $3.99 (33% off)
6477 - Firefighter's Lift Truck  $14.99 (25% off)
6617 - Tough Truck Rally  $19.99 (60% off)
6713 - Grip-n-Go Challenge  $19.99 (33% off)

6600 - Highway Construction  $49.99 (38% off)
*note* this has been KB's "Surprise of the Day"

other notable:

7144 - Slave I  $14.99 (25% off) *was 12.99 last week but still an ok deal
8001 - Battle Droid $19.99 (33% off)

***use coupon code: DENNYTOYS for $5 off a $25 purchase (expires 08-30)***
I have used this code more than once with no problems  :)

***Don't forget: shop through Ebates and receive 2% back on your KBToys.com
purchase***

Standard shipping cost:
$3.99 + (Total Weight x Price Per Pound) = Total
0-9.99 pounds = $.80 per pound
10-19.99 pounds = $.75 per pound
20-34.99 pounds = $.70 per pound
35-49.99 pounds = $.65 per pound
50 pounds and up = $.60 per pound

Let me know if you found this useful, or have any suggestions or requests
for future reports  :)

Shop smart!

I did find this useful, just sucked up a few Naboo swamps. I wish that the Lugnet report could be updated more frequently, so this is in the meantime definitely appreciated. Seth. (...) (23 years ago, 22-May-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
