  Star Wars Lego 40% off at K-mart
 
Hi All, Sunday morning I was at two local K-marts because of the buy 1 get 1 50% off sale. To my happy surprise, the Star Wars sets rung up at the 20% off prices! With the 50% off the 2nd set, that averaged out to 40% off regular prices for both (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

My wife bought 2 sets yesterday. 1 X-Wing set, 1 Tie Fighter vs. Y-Wing set. X-Wing rung up at 20% off, but the Tie Fighter rung up at 19.99. That's 62% off! On top of that, she got 50% off the 19.99 price, for a grand total of $9.99 for one $51.99 (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) A little of both. I had this happen the other week--they still had the "buy one, get 50% off another" signs up and everything rang up at 20% off, so I called them on it and they honoured the dual-sale. I haven't had it happen on the register, (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Star Wars Lego 40% off at K-mart
 
I think I can clarify why this is happening: K-Mart is running a 20% off all star wars toys this week. They are also running a buy one lego, get second lego at 50% off. This is happening because both sales apply to the Star Wars Lego sets. Ray (...) (25 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Hello! (...) It's still going on? I am *so* very there tomorrow morning...;) Mos Espa Podraces? Why yes, I'll take two... best Lindsay (25 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Yes, thru Saturday the 11th. I also had two Mos Espa's scanned at $108 + tax. Ray (...) (25 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) That is obviously what is happening, but I wouldn't count on getting both sales. Don't these things usually say "not valid with any other offer"? (25 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Star Wars Lego 40% off at K-mart
 
(...) Nope, it doesn't say that, and when I went to buy two Speeder Bikes 7128, two Snowspeeders 7130, one Sith Infiltrator 7141 (?), one X-Wing 7140, and two Mos Espa Podraces 7171, the total was right about $188 including tax--or a pinch less (...)

  Re: Star Wars Lego 40% off at K-mart
 
(...) Just to be way too pedantic, the ad on Lego does say 50% off the _regular price_ on the second set. This would still be 35% off, average, and our computer system probably can't handle that fine of a distinction. (Or the people who enter the (...)

  Re: Star Wars Lego 40% off at K-mart
 
(...) I was prepared to have the checker tell me that both sales couldn't apply at the same time, but the sets I bought rang up automatically with both the 20% discount and the buy-one-get-one-50%-off sales. So no fast-talking was necessary! (...) (25 years ago, 9-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Star Wars Lego 40% off at K-mart
 
(...) ...and just to return well-intentioned pedantry, they in fact do scan 50% off the 20%-off level. ;) (...) I don't think they raincheck that freely, but I could be wrong. :) -LFB (25 years ago, 9-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
