While in the Lego isle we found an even distribution of  Toa and Bohrok
sets.
I didn't get any.
Why?
Toa sets were priced at $9.99 and Bohrok were $11.99.
Nope its not a typo.
Nope the department manager wouldn't budge on the prices even after I showed
her the prices in the catalog.
So what's everyone's opinion on this?
Should I make some sort of complaint? Or what else?
Obviously I'm going to get them elsewhere.

By buying elsewhere you have made the most effective complaint. If you are
fond of this store for some reason, you could write a letter to the
management expressing your dismay with their mark-up.

But if they are just another retailer, there's no reason to do them any
favors by spending time and energy on them.

(What's a Boscov?)

The nearest TrU (a terrible, terrible store) marks them up, too (in
unpredictable ways) so I go ACROSS THE STREET to Target and shop there. Or
drive a few minutes to Fred Meyer's (generalzed department-like store owned
by Kroger's) and sometimes find things on sale.
