I had much the same experience with the same set at another Myer store. When
I first took it to the counter the assistant said it was $49.95 but when my
partner took the same set they gave him the extra 25% off.

As to whether we were *supposed* to get the discount - the advertising on
their sign said "25% off the marked price of Lego". As the marked price was
$49.95, I suppose, technically, the discount was correct. The catalogue did
say no further discounts apply, but I just assumed that meant no staff
discounts on top. Open to interpretation I imagine!

Hmm... cheap Lego....

(errmm wait on...). Anyone else get the extra discounts from their Myer
stores??...

They also *had* the Black Falcon's Fortress @ $37.45... (only saw one • there)...

Plenty of Shrieking Shacks though.

P.S. this is why I *refuse* to buy LEGO at full price... shhh!! ;)
P.P.S. prices in Australian $
P.P.P.S. I imagine I'm not meant to get the extra discount on an already • reduced
item... correct?

I too got the extra 25% discount applied to 4 shrieking shacks that I put on lay-by at Myers. (An effective total discount of 62.5%) If anyone finds out that the 25% manually applied on top is wrong, please email me. Spammers will be ignored, and (...) (20 years ago, 4-Dec-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
