  Attention holiday shoppers - Zellers BOGOHP (Dec 15-21)
 
Just saw some flyers on the lunch room table and noted another Zellers BOGOHP and the sale starts tomorrow. It will be really nice if some new sets are actually on the shelves this week. Andrew (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Request for lending a 9V transformer in the Toronto area...
 
Dear Lugnetters from Toronto! A collegue of mine - Henning Schlums - has sent a 3225 train set as christmas present to his young nephew who lives in Toronto / Markham. Additionally he has ordered some straight and curved track plus the 9V (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: 2002 sets found in TRU Merivale
 
Hi, I can confirm that TRU in St. Laurent also has the new sets. I picked up Harry Potter Flying Lesson, 2 figs and stuff for under $5. Not too bad. I think I may be getting a few ewok sets though ... they look kind of cool. Hadn't seen anything at (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)
 
  Re: 2002 sets found in TRU Merivale
 
(...) I was checking those out on Saturday, and telling my wife, "you can get me any of these for stocking stuffers"! :-) I saw a bunch of sets at Lincoln Heights Walmart today too. Several SW sets for $9.86 each, several new Racer sets for $4.86 (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

  Re: Well, I can ask him, but I don't think he'll be very keen!
 
(...) There's at least some in lugnet.org.nalug. Occasionally. :-) (...) I can probably get shot by the other nalug-ers (see (URL) our little page), but you might also consider the Cyber K'nex stuff. It looked interesting, but I haven't physically (...) (23 years ago, 12-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
 
  Re: 6150 Crystal Detector
 
Hi, (...) I picked up the set on the weekend. It has some ok parts for $15. You can see the inventory for 6150 here: (URL) (23 years ago, 12-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Well, I can ask him, but I don't think he'll be very keen!
 
(...) Heh. Yeah, well us locals tend to do our yakking on the NALUG mailing list. As Steve (Chapple) reminds us, we should do more talking on Lugnet, just so folks know we exist. :) (...) That's easy to fix. :) (...) You should talk to John Koob or (...) (23 years ago, 11-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
 
  Well, I can ask him, but I don't think he'll be very keen!
 
I see this is a pretty high traffic group :-) I figured I should post something, just so Edmonton gets some representation during the year 2001 :-) I don't know if I count though, seeing as I don't actually own any Lego yet. The Mindstorms/RCX stuff (...) (23 years ago, 11-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
 
  Re: 6150 Crystal Detector
 
(...) According to the Lugnet guide, this is a $20 US set- that's a ridiculous $30 CDN at full price. I think it's already is on clearance, unless this turns out to be a 2002 Classic rerelease. (23 years ago, 10-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Walmart rollbacks some LEGO- got your Mania Magazine coupons? :)
 
Looking through the flyers and.... LEGO rollbacks! Now $54.86 are the <set:7316 Excavation Searcher>, the <set:8549 Tarakava>, and the <set:3409 Championship Challenge>. But LEGO Mania magazine recently gave club members coupons for $15 off the (...) (23 years ago, 10-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: 6150 Crystal Detector
 
Bryan Wong wrote in message ... (...) Yes, they have a whole whack of them at the Zellers in North Van too. I'm waiting for them to go on clearance after Xmas :-)... I can't see much in the way of parts in them that I would find useful. Kevin (...) (23 years ago, 10-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: LEGO finds at the Pickering mall
 
(...) I'm pretty sure the 8720 was never re-released. They occasionally crop up here in Australia too - I picked up a damaged one (already opened) for AU$15 at Big W once. And it was only missing the crown wheel & rubber bands!! ROSCO (23 years ago, 10-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on)
 
  6150 Crystal Detector
 
Hi all, I just found a bunch of 6150 Crystal Detector sets for $15 CDN! I found them at Zellers at Lansdowne Mall (Richmond, BC in Canada) and they had around 20 copies. Although the set doesn't really interest me, it was a pleasant sight to see (...) (23 years ago, 10-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Toys, Toys, Toys in Eatons Centre
 
Toys, Toys, Toys in the Eatons Centre had <set:6714 Speed Dragster> on sale for $12.99 when I was there on Friday. Also, Soccer sets at 25% off. The Speed Dragser is a really good set at that price. (23 years ago, 9-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor)
 
  LEGO finds at the Pickering mall
 
Zellers <set:6150 Crystal Detector> About a dozen of these, at $14.97 (50% off MSRP). <set:8720 Power Pack> Yes, it was the 8720. They only had one. $46.99, IIRC. (Were either of these sets rereleased?) Mastermind <set:78777 Alien Discovery> $11.95 (...) (23 years ago, 9-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on)
 
  Re: Stock at Price Club of the Giant OffRoad 4x4 8466 question
 
(...) Oh damn. I hope I didn't drag you out there because of that... When I was there, there was only one sign: $100. No sign of any other price. Calum (23 years ago, 7-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Stock at Price Club of the Giant OffRoad 4x4 8466 question
 
(...) At the 400 and 7 Costco, the shelf-worn Silver Champions are reduced from $170 to $130, NOT to $100. This showed up at the cash register; the price tag near the pile still says $170. I know, I tried to buy one :) There are lots of 4x4s, for (...) (23 years ago, 7-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Stock at Price Club of the Giant OffRoad 4x4 8466 question
 
(...) Yup. 8466 SUV for $99. They also had the Silver Champions too for the same price (in the same pile) but they were pretty shelf worn. It's likely they had the Silver Champions from last year (they were $119.99 back then) and have brought them (...) (23 years ago, 3-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
