(...) I ran... I ran... I bought... I bought. :) (...) My haul was one Yoda, 2 cloud cars, 1 Final Duel II, and two Star Wars minis. Just enough to get the free 500 piece bucket. So all of that for less than $68 tax included! Probably my most (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Wow....Wow....Wow. All SW LEGO at 50% off (except the stuff already marked down, that was 75% off total). Jean-Marc was kind enough to give me a ride to the only TRU in the province this evening. The first time I've shopped with another AFOL. (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Gail you forgot to mention that by splitting the bills every $50 you got 5 free 500 pieces buckets... Thanks to my wife who read the heads-up message, she "draged" me to the TRU (I didn't resist too much though... ;~)) I got 7 free 500 pieces (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) This is a VERY dangerous thing. We did the same sale today in Toronto with Derek Raycraft and John Guerquin. Another Lego fan means increased spending. The guilt disappears when you have some else with the same vices. :) It's like smokers (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) It should work like that, yup. They ran through all of Derek's purchases at once and checked in the three buckets and they all went through reimbursed free. We ran out of free buckets in the store we were at :) Calum (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Hmm. I'm not sure I like that analogy. I think playing with Lego is a healthy, positive thing to do. But, it definitely is true that shopping for Lego with other Lego fans is hard on the credit card (and the space!) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

Gail and Jean-Marc Thanks for not going too crazy at the Mic Mac TRU. I did my part today by picking up 4 Yodas as well as an assortment of smaller SW sets. The Creator buckets are almost gone though. John Battcock (21 years ago, 23-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

Does anyone know how long those clearance prices are on for? I stopped in at the TRU in Newmarket ON today and picked up quite a few bargains :-)) Unfortunately not all of the SW sets are included in the markdown. They had a couple of the new (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)
