Finally something good especially with 40% off Palpatine's Shuttle and Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter!

On a side note, they are advertising that they have Winter Toy Shop (min 3) and Tantive IV (min 4) in their stores excluding the express ones. There's also a text next to their exclusives as "once its gone, its gone".

Also, can't believe they labled Battle of Endor as their exclusive. But I'm quite certain thats going to be discontinued very soon. I can't find it in any Wal-Mart or Zellers store and even LEGO Shop is sold out.

I can't find the pink brick box on their website. I assume this is set 5585?

That is a good deal on the firetruck, but when you consider that MSRP is $29.99 on that set, when you take that into account its really only 42% off. Still a good deal though. I'll be getting two for my sons.

ToysRUs has marked up City Fire Truck MSRP from 29.99 to $34.99. Thus it's actually 41.66% off. Being said that, it is better than no discount.

City Police Dog Unit MSRP has been marked up, too. :mad:

Oh...hatcher, you just beat my post. :-D

Was this fire truck released at 2005? I didn't notice that it is still circulating at retailers after 3 generations of City fire theme.

Ultimate Build Mater is a Wal-Mart exclusive. Is this supposed to read "Lightning McQueen?"

Police Dog Unit did not get marked up. Perhaps you were thinking of the US $12.99 MSRP? :razz:

Ah yes, I believe it is Lightning McQueen, not Mater.

Toys R Us also has the $10 off Lego Cards again this week for a future purchase. Although, I find these cards quite annoying to get. The advertisement specifically states that you get the card for any Lego purchase and on the card it states that you get $10 off your next $50 purchase, but some CSR's won't give you the card, unless you spend $50 to begin with (and then another $50 later). Anyhow, if they give you a hard time, you can always buy $50 worth and return it immediately... it's a pain, but the CSRs should know better.

I've run into this problem too. I spent a good ten minutes schooling an associate on how THEIR promo actually worked lol

Just came from the Barrie TRU. They have about 55 of the fire trucks out for sale right now. They also have about 15 or so of the Obi-Wan Starfighter set. However, they are at full price, so I don't see them moving. Saw a few of the Tantive IV's, also full price.

Nice! If anyone can't find these, remember you can always bring Wal-Mart's ad to Zellers, Superstore, etc to get it price matched.

It really depends on the associates. I always ask for their savings card when I buy $50 or more of LEGO and they are happy to give it to me.

Savings are much better like this when I can get straight $10 off $50 vs buying something first to get the $10 off $50 card. But during the Christmas season, its a lot harder to get them this way as they tend to run out of the cards pretty fast.

This happened to me today. I picked up the fire truck (50% off!) and asked if I was supposed to get a $10 gift card at checkout. The CSR said "no, you have to spend $50 on Lego to get the gift card." I told her it said "any Lego purchase" on the sign but she said she was told otherwise. I didn't get the gift card. :down:

Stupid employees. They don't even know how to fun their own promotions. The manager should educate them better.

Best way to mitigate this is to come armed with the flyer in hand that clearly stipulates that the coupon is avaliable with ANY Lego purchase even if you buy a $6.99 box... if that still doesn't work talk to the manager... still no results then get the name of the manager and call the 1888 number and they will take care of it!

TRU is really difficult sometime but if you follow that path you will get your coupon :-D

Got the City Dog Unit @40% off plus the $10 gift card. Tru employees were pretty confused with the wording of the promo card, but I convinced them...
