(...) Not sure about now, but earlier this year, Tuesday Morning had some lego on sale. Every once and a while, both K-Mart and Target have 10%-20% sales, you just have to watch the Sunday ads. What type of sets are you looking for? Technic, (...) (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.us.texlug)

Does anyone know of any stores in or near Austin that ever have particularly good prices on LEGO? In the past, I occasionally found some nice LEGO sets on clearance at Wal-mart.

I asked around here at National Instruments about using one of our meeting rooms on the weekend, and they said that I would have to be able to link it back to the company to make it work. We do have a product called RoboLab, which uses our software, (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.us.texlug)
