[USA] ToysRUs LEGO Sale from November 11-17

Post by Toys N Bricks » Sat Nov 10, 2012 6:13 pm


This week from November 11-17, Toys R Us America will be offering the following LEGO deals and sales.

25% off of the LEGO sets shown on the picture above
25% off LEGO Games The Hobbit, Castle Fortaan, Minotaurus, Creationary
Free LEGO Hobbit Notebook with $20 LEGO Board Game Purchase
Free LEGO Series 8 Minifigure Case with purchase of 3 LEGO Series 8 Minifigures
Free LEGO Ninjago Backpack with any LEGO construction set purchase of $50 or more

Note: Percentage discounts are based on ToysRUs regular prices. In the end, you'll probably only save a little like Jabba's Palace (TRU reg.$149.99 vs MSRP reg.$119.99). They do however also have a Free $10 Gift Card when you spend $75 at Toys R Us or Babies R Us coupon which could help ease off some of that markup..

Highlights would I think be the Ninjago Samurai Mech (should be about 16-17% off MSRP) and the SW 7879 Hoth Echo Base, which has to be near EOL and is MSRP at TRU so you'd get the full 25% off.

This appears to be many or all of the same sets that are already on sale in the TRU Big sale book. Nothing new here just more advertisement. :sad:

I picked up the Lego Avengers Quinjet Aerial Battle for $63.79 and bought some much needed batteries to put me over $75. So, with the sale and the $10 gift card, I'm happy.

Picked up the Hoth Echo base for $71.24 and had to get a couple other small items to get my $10 giftcard.

Ran across this sale at the store today and had to laugh/gag. Some sale. Jabba's Palace marked up to 149.99, marked down 25%. I paid 86 for this set.

I think the ad was a misprint. I should read: "Lego - 25% over retail on these sets". :clap:

Doesn't TRU have a price match guarantee to the competitors in store? You can show them prices on Target or Walmart on your phone, have them match it and then get 25% off that?

Thanks.

I was actually thinking of swinging by TRU to pick up a SW Advent Calendar for my son - until I noticed on-line that instead of discounting the item 25%, they raised the list price overnight to $59.99. Glad I didn't waste my time...

Sorry dude, according to yet another genius scheme, TRU only price matches AFTER all coupons/discounts are taken into account.
To me, this policy is an insult to all of us b/c who in the right mind would exhaust all coupons/discount only to have the dumb price matched at the end????

TRU price match is simply another scheme, whats new with TRU? They will not accept prices shown on your smartphone, a printed advertisement or sale leaflet is required for any price match scenario's, and of you check leaflets / sale advertisements from competitors nobody's list an actual discounted price, all that is mentioned is 10% etc off so TRU will not respect that for a price. - TRU'ly schemed !

I lucked out on the Jabba set right when they started pricematching. It was $102 at Walmart.com and they let me pricematch the website when looking at my phone. I also had a $10 off coupon and a 25% off loyalty rewards coupon they let me stack on top of it. I left there with the Jabba set for right around $70.

I got scammed at TRU...yesterday I bought 9448 Samurai Mech for $23 pretax (25% off plus $10 gift card). It clearly showed the $23 (pretax) price on the submit order page, but both the acknowledgement and pickup receipt emails show the $33.74 price. Then I looked up the order online- it does say 'TRU gift card ending in XXXX' (meaning an $XX gift card was entered), but the price is also $33.74. So basically they altered my order and made it look like nothing was wrong.

I haven't picked up my order yet, though. I doubt they'll budge but I'll try to fight it.

So I just spent $45 on Ninjago and I got the free backpack and free head band pack. I guess the sales lady didn't know I had to spend $50 to qualify for the free stuff. Plus I got a coupon for 20% off any regular priced item. It's the best TRU coupon i've gotten in a long time, usually I get 3 for 2 on baby formula...

I'm confused....The order total would still be 33.xx if you used a 10$ giftcard....it does not deduct the giftcard price from the item, it is a method of payment. They should charge your credit card the remainder of the balance. It does not make the item priced 23.xx. Is this what you are talking about?

Scratch that...the total is actually $26 as TRU calculated tax BEFORE I added the $10 giftcard.($33.74 + CA tax - $10 = $26.57) But still, everything else reflects the price as $10 higher, as if I never entered the gift card. Even the 'order summary' page reflects that price. Although it says that I entered a TRU gift card, the amount wasn't deducted.

my invoices have been incorrect from TRU before and didnt reflect any discounts or credits, but the charge my credit card has always been the correct amount, have you checked what your credit card says?
