 | | Anatomy of a Shop At Home group order

A few days ago, in this thread: (URL) mentioned the large group order that we (my co-workers & I) do every year about this time. This was our third annual and largest order yet. I'm not sure how many other people do this in their office/workplace or (...) (20 years ago, 7-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Thanks for posting those Tim. The one in St. Catharines had 2 2714's. I don't know if there are more there. The store clerk found the 2 I bought in their store room (not on the floor).

(...) I checked the Payless by the Mall and found no LEGO items at all. I have this weekend off, so I may run down to Crawfordsville to take a look. Last Saturday (Oct. 30) I bought three 4562's and left 2 at the Walgreens on Sagamore in West (...) (20 years ago, 5-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

The nearest Kroger is in Crawfordsville which isnt too far. Kokomo has 3 of (...) (20 years ago, 5-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| | 4400 tub: No Variations?
|

Hi All, I have purchased 6 of these tubs now from different locations and cities! Every tub I bought is identical in its' contents. Has anyone else found variations on these? I'm thinking that maybe there isn't any and they are all alike. Either (...) (20 years ago, 5-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) If you buy in multiples of 6, they seem happy enough for you to take the tray too, which helps when you carry them out to the car and so forth... I did not notice the LEGO part number. Good sleuthing. (20 years ago, 5-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) A bit of side trivia... The cardboard trays appear to be supplied by TLC to Walgreen's sale spec. The label on the trays has a TLC style part number (7-digit) which does not appear on any of the trays for the other toys. Seems like a quick and (...)

Like many others, I'm searching for a Krogers that stocks the new version of the 4400 tub. There aren't any Krogers in the town where I live (Lafayette, IN), so I went to Kroger's web site to see if they had a store locator. The site did have a (...)

(...) Nevermind. :) A clever co-worker pointed out to me today that the tree on the front is bigger than the actual set inside. So apparently it's just 'art' and not a real product. LOL Sorry for any confusion. Allan B. (20 years ago, 5-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.lego)

(...) An update to the previously stated. I now have 3 4679's with different serial numbers. The third is 2814, and it is closely related to 2714 in contents. It also has old grey's in the tub. Here's my pix of a 2714, and a 2814 stamped combo after (...) (20 years ago, 4-Nov-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.general)

Hm, well, the point is moot - I post via Communicator, and when it sends plaintext, the Lugnet server prints it as plaintext, so the formatting isn't showing online. So any time I post, you won't see the pics. Because I am NOT about to go to the (...) (20 years ago, 4-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)
