  Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
Kmart Expect 7244 Speed Boat and 7249 XXL Mobile Crane to be on sale this Thursday. There was a whole lot of these sets piled up in the 'extended' toy section. Don't know the price, probably $25-30 for 7244 and $50 for 7249. Also some 8436 red (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
(...) Kmart catalogue is out and I'm afraid is not that exciting: Boat 7244 is $39.96 save $9.99 (20% off) Crane 7249 is $71.99 save $18 (~20% off) World city train 4511 is $143.96 save $35.99 (hmm, that would be 20% off, surprised?) These 3 are all (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
(...) That's pure crap (and BS since other stores have those KK2 canisters not to mention 4511). I gave Kmart the benefit of the doubt and assumed they would have something to get excited about. Although, 20% off 8435 (blue technic 4WD) makes it (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
Mmm, you're right - I thought I'd seen 4511 in Myer but wondered if I was thinking of something else. Haven't seen the KK2 canisters elsewhere, but I haven't been paying that much attention either. Maybe the Kmart layout person got over excited with (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)

P.S. Look on the bright side - no need to fight the madding crowds on Thursday!! Christmas toy sales are best avoided if at all possible - at least on the first day :) Deidre (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
(...) I have only found crowds at Target and it's literally wall to wall people (same as the warehouse sale for those that went). It's not easy pushing a trolley that's stacked 2-3 feet above the top while everyone you pass asks 'why are you buying (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) The castle (8781) started around $140AU at Kmart. It eventually spiraled to about $88AU during a sale around December/January. -Brad (19 years ago, 6-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
(...) not to prevent you from spending your money here, but I have to say this because it's posts like the above that make me sick quite frankly. I'm 17. I have very little income, and if I see something like this, I will want to buy 1 of each, (...) (19 years ago, 7-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Ok, now I feel really bad replying to my own post... I was in a very bad mood just before, and you guys are having fun. don't let my bad mood spoil your LEGO fun :). What I said does stand, however. if you, as AFOLS, buy all the cheap LEGO (...) (19 years ago, 7-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
 
  Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.
 
(...) Hi Matt, I don't know what Brad gets up to, but whether it's Ebay, partsies, or just avid model building I can't say that the "Brads" of the world have caused any difficulty in getting Lego sets for my kids. I often find that it's the sets (...) (19 years ago, 7-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
 
  Re: Kmart (was Re: Mid Year Toy Sales.)
 
(...) But no crane, as expected. Damned if I'm gonna pay $250 + shipping from S@H, when the yanks get it for us$150. Guess I'll just have to try & get my hands on more red trucks. ROSCO (19 years ago, 7-Jul-05, to lugnet.loc.au)
