How lucky are we here in the Chicago suburbs?????

3 P-A-B within an hours drive!

Meanwhile, there are no Lego stores (as far as I know) in the region west
of Minnesota and north of California.  That's what, a quarter of the US
and half of Canada, roughly?

So I agree with the Canadians that Canada should get a Lego store. . .

in Vancouver. :-)


I totally agree. The only other store west of Minnesota not in California is in
Colorado. BC has just under a half million people less than Colorado. Plus we
don't have any small chain toy stores. I would think this is one of the lest
saturated markets in Canada right now (Aside from Zellers and Wal-Mart). I
remember there being a period of time 2 years ago when the TRU in Bellingham, WA
(Just South of Vancouver) had a better selection than any TRU in Greater
Vancouver. They had the S@H exclusives and the Target had the MOT sets. Sure we
see plenty of sales, but that's about it
