I have made a couple trips to the Woodfield P-A-B store since it opened. I quikly learned that taking your time packing the blocks in can result in 30-40% or more increase in your spoils! Trees really require a few minutes work to pack in the cups (...) (21 years ago, 6-Nov-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

I had the opportunity to visit the new Chicagoland LEGO store at Woodfield Mall last night. Tim Courtney and Ondrew Hartigan (who both work there but were not on duty) offered to meet me at the store and I met up with them shortly after 7:00. Over (...)

I'd rather have "too many" 2x2s than too many 1x1s. 2x2s are very useful (and easier to sell in the colors you don't need). The ton of grey 2x2s is a Castle lovers dream, I'm sure (I don't need them from my 20 tubs, so I'm selling all 1120 of them, (...)
