Which is why I added a "never say never?" tag to my post!
The major downside to Pick-A-Brick is geography. I'm in Philadelphia PA USA
and I don't see any stores opening within two hours of me anytime soon.
(Will the Lego Outlet in VA get Pick A Brick?)
Believe me, I would love to walk into the Lego store in my local mall and
scoop whatever bricks I need into a baggie, slap down a $20 and walk out.
But at this time, sadly, I can only do this in my imagination at the
imaginary store.
(See my imaginary brick scoop? I'm scooping into a bin of purple 2x4
bricks... and scooping some more! <grin>)
