Re: where are the reviews on Lego's website?

Figured it out. Work only has IE10 installed and for some reason the whole reviews part of the page is missing. I tried firefox and everything displayed fine.

where are the reviews on Lego's website?

When browsing within a theme on the Lego shop website, below each set is a rating out of 5 bricks. Where are the reviews associated with these ratings? Also how do you rate & review a set?

How did you learn about the freebie? I don't see it on the calendar, and just wondering if there is a part of the site I'm missing.

Re: TRU Canada - 50% off galaxy squad sept 27th - Oct 3rd

I wish they had such deals for other themes. Personally I'm just not interested in the parts in these sets, they seem too specialized to build other things.

Re: LEGO Special Announcement this Friday

Do the order of the colours have anything to do with the Space theme? Maybe the newest spacemen will be red? My guess for the 4 is it's just a countdown till Friday.

Re: Chapters Indigo - 25% Off One Item

It helps if you read the coupon. I myself only just noticed the coupon says "25% off one item, storewide & online, excludes books online"

Re: Chapters Indigo - 25% Off One Item

Free shipping was not available for any Guardians or Ultra Agents sets, nor X-Men Sentinel. Store pickup was also not an option. I guess I get to hold onto my money a bit longer until someone offers a proper sale.

Re: Chapters Indigo - 25% Off One Item

You could always select to pickup at store , which is free. This is the option I choose when my item is below $25.

That's good to know. I just wish they had a website to check prices online.

Re: [Canada] Target 30% off a couple of Lego sets.

pretty much, and scan everything, cause they're not always advertised That's funny, I remember I went in not too long ago and there was an Unexpected Gathering set that was stickered at 30% off, but scanned at full price. I already had the set so left if, but I imagine you'd just ask the cashier to...

Re: [Canada] Target 30% off a couple of Lego sets.

Thanks, just picked up Toxicita's Meltdown and Mission HQ for 30% off. Those were the only sets I noticed that were tagged with the 'Temporary Price Cut'.

Just curious, how are you guys finding these unadvertised sales? Are you visiting the stores every week?

Re: LEGO Minecraft 21114 The Farm and 21113 The Cave Picture

I think these are awesome, I love the larger scale. I never purchased the other minecraft sets because I felt they were too small to play with. I'll be buying these for sure.

Re: Indigo.ca - 20% any one item promo

I guess it depends on the value you put on the monthly promotion. I think this month's is a Chima polybag if the purchase is $75 or more, and if its $100 or more you also get the mini cooper. If I purchased sets worth exactly $100 to maximize these bonuses I'd earn $5 in VIP points, and the bonuses ...

Re: Indigo.ca - 20% any one item promo

20% off is a standard sale, but still good on items that are usually excluded. I purchased an ecto-1 for 20% off, which I hadn't seen on sale before. Thanks for posting the deal.

Re: [CAN]: Target now price matching online merchants (some)

So today I went to a different Target location to try and get some of the other sets and they refused to price match the printed ads. They wanted to see the ad on a smartphone. I asked if they could check the online price using their computers and was told no. So far I'm underwhelmed with Target Can...

Re: [CAN]: Target now price matching online merchants (some)

By the way, I don't have a smart phone either. I printed out the items on the TRUs website that day, went to Target and the cashier accepted it without a problem. They did mention I could just show it on a smart phone if I wanted though, but I didn't get the feeling it was required. Maybe I just got...

Re: [CAN]: Target now price matching online merchants (some)

Thanks for the heads up. This month Toys R Us has some sets I want at 20% off. Thanks to this I saved an additional 5% with my redcard, which was nice. Unfortunately the lego section at my Targets seem pretty bare, and the choices of sets are pretty limited, they only had one of the sets I wanted. I...
