Of course the email I received states "All lego construction sets on sale". I was thinking everything would be 30% off. Wish the r2d2 set wasn't inflated.

Yeah, I was a little ticked about that. Not that being upset with a TRU advertising tactic is anything new.

Have a feeling we aren't going to see this, atleast it won't be without a million restrictions.

The Death Star (10188) is listed as 359.99. Think that's a good price to buy it at, or do I wait for Black Friday sales?

It's interesting if you look at their financial statements. If my understanding is right their gross margin on goods sold in the second quarter went up more than a full percent (38.7% to 39.9%) and the real reason they're reporting a net loss of $36 million for the quarter is because of the $103 million in interest payments they have to make on debt assumed when they were taken over by private equity (which received $5 million in "management fees" in second quarter 2012).

Anyone else notice that on the TRU web site its reads: "Buy 1 Get 1 50% off Hundreds of LEGO Construction Sets"

Can't seem to find anything that works.

One of the managers at TRU this weekend saw me walking out on Saturday empty-handed. She told me that next week would start the BOGO free lego sale. I told her that was great but they would probably have most things excluded. She laughed and said "actually that will not be the case." She went on to say that she didn't have the details in front of her but there wasn't going to be the normal exclusions. Again, I don't know exactly what that means but hopefully it is good news!!

Well I saw ads on the site today for Buy One Get One Half Off, so they must be working on something.

Do these sale usually go live on Sunday morning at 12:01 am?

So, go to toysrus website, search for Lego, then click on Hard to find.

The title of the page is "Lego Hard to Find - Buy 2 get the 3rd free "

You can see in the screenshot, and in the source from their page.

I think they let the code go to production a tad early :)

Will be interesting to see which sets apply since we know how they are :)
Wonder when it goes active...

Can a person buy everything online this week and then return it to the store for a price adjustment once the sale is on?

Given the TRU markups what are some of the best deals? I'm a B&N member so the deal would have to be better than 30% off.

Basically products that B&N doesn't carry...otherwise B&N > TRU.
