Re: What lego did I buy today thread
Went to my local toy store today.
I bought the Snowtrooper battle pack (really excited with that one) and the very last 3 minifigure packs in the shelves (cheerleader, wrestler and robot, but no nurse again...)

There are 2 Lego stores in the North Suburbs of Chicago and every year at Brickworld they coordinate with the Lego Stores to have a Damaged Box sale where sets are 50% off due to damaged box (crushed corners tend to be the majority of the damage). When you register to attend Brickworld you get access to go to the Damaged Box sale which is on Friday night of Brickworld around 9:30pm after the malls close. This year they did two simultaneous Damaged box sales, 1 at each location and we were randomly assigned to one of the Lego stores for the sale. I picked up 10179 Millennium Falcon, 10211 Grand Emporium, 10193 Medieval Market Village and Atlantis Exploration HQ from the Damaged box sale at 50% off (thanks to a friendly patron who changed their mind about purchasing items form the sale and basically bought for me).sweener wrote:I've yet to make it to Brickworld, could you go into a little more detail on how these were obtained?

I got the Space Police Galactic Enforcer (5974) at my local Walmart today for 30$
kind of too bad I don't like the space police sets , but the deal was too good to pass up.

Where was that? And do they have any more? And can you pick one up for me and I'll pay + shipping/handling?
Re: What lego did I buy today thread
It was the last one they had, at that price I would have picked up however many they had. sorry. The Walmart here seems to overstock quite regularly. I picked up some 50+% off sets last year after X-mas too.vynsane wrote::!:toystest wrote:I got the Space Police Galactic Enforcer (5974) at my local Walmart today for 30$

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
Dang. I'll have to check my local WM... although with the bricklink orders I'm placing tonight in order to build a MOC, I think I'd have a hard time explaining it to the missus.

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
My boys just bought the Battle of Endor (8038) with thier birthday money. They love that they get 12 minifigures with it. Great set.
Re: What lego did I buy today thread
I'm keeping an eye on these at my local wal-mart. They have been in the clearance aisle for about 3 weeks at $70. I am just waiting for them to drop, they still had 6 when I was there yesterday.toystest wrote:I got the Space Police Galactic Enforcer (5974) at my local Walmart today for 30$

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
Yeah I've been checking the Clearance isle like twice a week. They have slowly been marking down this set to, it's down to 25$:solo606 wrote:I'm keeping an eye on these at my local wal-mart.

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
Dang, man... my Walmarts don't have them on clearance, and there's no 'clearance aisle' either. The only things I saw when I went the other day were Hoth Rebel Base, Tri-droid Fighter and Corporate Alliance Tank Droid all for $20 each.
Re: What lego did I buy today thread
All 6 local Walmarts (in 20 miles) have Clearance aisles most of the time they are located in, or just outside of lawn and Garden. Are you sure yours doesn't have a Clearance aisle?vynsane wrote:Dang, man... my Walmarts don't have them on clearance, and there's no 'clearance aisle' either.

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
I'll check the next time I'm there, but it wasn't where I remembered it being this most recent time. It was near the 'Seasonal' area last time I explicitly checked for the clearance section, and it wasn't there this time, just pet stuff.toystest wrote:All 6 local Walmarts (in 20 miles) have Clearance aisles most of the time they are located in, or just outside of lawn and Garden.

Meanwhile, I got another PaB cup at the new Rockefeller Center LEGO Store today - for $5, since I had a $10 VIP credit thanks to the double points promo two weeks ago and reused the cup for another $0.50 off! WOOT!

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
Clone Trooper Battlepack and the Ramse's Pyramid board game. Got the board game from a friend for my birthday. Will post a review for it sometime this weekend probably.

Playing with LEGO when I can. Where does the time go?

Re: What lego did I buy today thread
Went looking for clearance items at TRU (that I didn't find...) but ended up getting my daughter the CITY 3177 'Small Car' (SMART Car). It's cute. We put it together this morning before I signed in for work.
