I've been looking at that Hogwarts Express, but it's really far too
overpriced. I need some of those red train windows, but the alternative is
that Ball Bus II combo, which for some inconceivable reason, is $39 at Zellers.
I saw an Escape from Privet Drive at Cloverdale yesterday-it has this really
cool car in it (rather detailed for Lego and six wide).

Yup. It's been actually 9.97 for a while-I bought like four of them at that
price two weeks ago. It's not a bad combo-green and brown slopes, that
nifty cockpit, Boba Fetts for you SW freaks, and you get the Desert Skiff, a
thoroughly disposable set. I sure wish they had the Landspeeder/Slave1
combos instead-I got one of those at Cookstown a while ago, and the
Landspeeder has corrogated, quarter rounds, a windsheild/skylight and some
useful thinwall elements.
Speaking of good deals for $10, I think some Winners still have the 2147
Dragon Fly, which is a great little Town set.
Today I got two sets of 1383 Curse of the Pharoah. It has little arches,
some slopes, a 8x8 grating plate, and that lionhead/gargoyle/architectural
piece. It also means I have a couple of Lego skeletons and Pharaohs to
trade. :)

IIRC they have piles here in Toronto. They tend to disappear during BOGOHP
and I don't honestly know why :)

| Well, whilst perusing the LEGO isle at Zellers (Burlington Mall) at lunch today, and debating whether or not to get the Hogwarts Express/Dumbledoor office (both 69 dollars) so I get the BOGO thing happening, I noticed the 7144/7104 kit for 19.97 (...)
