I got a 8277 Giant Model Set for $18.97 (CAD) at my local Walmart last night. bounced through a few more Walmarts today, but didn't see any more of the 8277s.

  Re: Halloween Candy - $5 lego coupon for 19c
 
It was posted here about the "Karnival Pops" cany for about $2 with a $5 Lego coupon in the package. Our local Zellers is trying desperately to get rid of these and they are now at 90% off, so you get them for 19c each! I just bought 10 packages, (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) Well, it always seemed to me that Canadian S@H prices were a direct equivalent of US S@H prices, comparing them on the Lego Direct flyers that came in sets. So I don't see any difference there. There's no actual *import duty* on toys, so that (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)

  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) Yeah, I noticed this order form too and I'm quite relieved - if Lego collects the GST then at least we don't have to get hit with a Canada Post $5 fee every time a package arrives from S@H. I don't nderstand why you guys out east get whacked (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
