I got there when they opened at 8, fortunately there was no rush, (...) (21 years ago, 8-Nov-03, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

Clickits are also 20% off. They are listed in the flyer with the 'girl stuff' not the LEGO. Last time I was in TRU they were with the ello (Mattel) not the LEGO as well. I think they make neat decorations in a town. For Nova Scotians, the mall opens (...) (21 years ago, 6-Nov-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

One of the other local AFOLs spotted them at Superstore, on a pallet near the checkout lines. I checked my local Superstore, and found them on a pallet in the Lego aisle, so you may have to hunt around. They scanned in at $15.98, and they had a full (...) (21 years ago, 4-Nov-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

Hi, Went to the local (Kitchener, Ontario) TRU this morning, hoping to get 4513 Grand Central Station at the 20% discount. They had two in stock and would not scan at the 20% off. I tried to convince them that it is part of World City but they (...) (21 years ago, 1-Nov-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)
