 | | Other than Target, what are the Lego bargains to be had?
|
|
Hi all, I haven't been able to find anytime to go and check out the sales yet, so I was wondering if anyone else had. Other than Target, what other bargains are there out there at the moment? Has anyone checked out ToysRUs yet? Also, does anyone (...) (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| | Initial peek at WM post Christmas sale
|
|
This afternoon, I made a first pass look-see at the local WM. Post Christmas discounts appear to be as follows. Note that not all sets at these price points are on markdown. I did not have anything to write on, so most of this is from memory, YMMV. (...) (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Sorry to respond to my own post, but wanted to update. It seems everyone is now getting the same stock response: "We're out of them, more to come in October. You must have gotten the last <insert number received here>." When I told the woman (...) (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I had pretty much the same experience. Except I got one of the two that I ordered. (Maybe I got the last one) They didn't give me a gift card either. Maybe I should have acted more upset on the phone. (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) A $50 gift card is about the only way they'll keep my business. I only ordered 3 tubs, but am in the same situation as you. They show as shipped, my credit card has been charged, but only two have arrived, and Airborne has no record of any (...) (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

New color assortment...there's an idea....wouldn't it be nice if TLG was nice enough to several different bulk tubs with varying color assortments ? There could be a "cool color assortment" with nothing but blues, greens, purples, and white, a "warm (...) (23 years ago, 25-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Well, if anyone was about to pick up some of the Imperial Shuttles, and are will to part with one, I would really like it. I went to 4 Target's today in the east bay. Newark/New Park Mall, San Ramon, Walnut Creek, and San Leandro, none of them had (...) (23 years ago, 25-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

In order to keep going with wild speculation; If it was a new color/part assortment I'm sure it would have a new set number. I would however love a tub of black, grey, dark grey and brown please! :-) (...) (23 years ago, 24-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

I read a post recently somewhere on LUGNET that the 3033 tub is back in retailers order books (or something to that effect) which i speculate to be either the original 3033 resurrected or a new color assortment. this might be what the phone rep was (...)

All the boxes are broken down and in storage (except one, which I already used!) and all the paper is folded neatly, ready to be reused. I wish they'd used peanuts (...)

(...) The large Bionicle set is the RC Manas. It was being sold at my local Target for $60.20. The kids seem to love the Bionicles. Target had about 50 SQ FT of them, and they were almost out of them! Rob robo2705@hotmail.com (23 years ago, 24-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Ok - I'm replying to my own message, but I found this interesting: I called the Customer Service, and they forwarded me to another number (1-800-561-6874), and the person there informed me that they expect another batch to be in on the 10th of (...)

Chris, I went to the Target in Newark (Fremont) and it had items on sale. I found one copy of Slave I/Landspeeder. I also got an Arctic 6575 for $13 (only saw 1 copy). They didn't have any A-Wing or Imperial Shuttle though they had a lot of Droid (...) (23 years ago, 24-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)
