Bricktober is now officially over...10x more Air Miles when you spend $30 or more on any LEGO Hero Factory, Creator, Ninjago and Chima Building sets

Good grief, was the Air Miles thing not just an excuse to not have sales during Bricktober? Are they really trying to make that the new equivalent to their usual 20% off sales? If that's the case, so long, Toys 'R' Us, and thanks for all the fish.

kidding right? this year was great... the rocket raccoon free with $30, selling for $40+ on ebay sameday (ie: FREE Lego), the Lone Ranger mine set for 75% off, granted the mini buildings were a big snooze but selling for $115 for a set of four did kinda bring down the price on non-sale sets to msrp.

Lone Ranger Silver Mine Shootout scanned $60 at my local stores last Friday. Only 33% off.

When did you buy them?

The silver mine set is awesome, I would've definitey grabbed another one at 75% off. Where/when did you find that?

No, I am not kidding. The giveaways were fine for what they were, its the sales. They literally only had 2 sales. 50% off Galaxy squad and 20% off Monster Fighters. Both out of productions lines that every other chain in Canada cleared out over a year ago. Sure, 50% off is a good sale, but I got all the Galaxy squad I could handle a year ago when Target burned them out for 75% off AND a BOGO. The Silver Mines Shootout (another line that was cleared out of every other store in Canada a year ago) was not at 75% at my store the last time I checked (2 days ago) so that must be a local thing. If it goes 75% off here I'll buy it but that's not the point.

Bricktober used to be great. CURRENT sets on sale for 50% off, entire lines on sale EACH WEEK. This year had 2 sales. TWO. On lines that were either retired years ago. I only bought minifigures to get the rocket racoon. Nothing else was good enough to lure me in. Bonus air miles are not a sale, they are a joke.

I don't consider the sale of Silver Mine set was part of this event. It has never been advertised and It was not on sale at my local TRUs either. The mini set did not come with any exclusive minifig; I wonder if it can retain any value. IMO, $115 for these sets was overpriced. If I have $115, I rather spend it on 70165 Ultra Agents Mission HQ or another Benny's spaceship for investment (plus earning double VIP from shopping at Lego store with exclusive christmas set).

picked up the ghost and phantom set at markville mall in markham. not sure how many were on the shelf but got the last one so don't bother going there to buy this. The box was larger than I thought, double the thickness to accommodate the smaller set instead of putting it beside like they did in other superpacks

$10 card works online but the catch is you cannot spend on star war sets instore or online greater $229. this is consistent with their policy of no discount on large exclusive sets.

I got two of the mini Ghost builds yesterday. Did anyone else get theirs?

Yep. I really like how my local store is doing them now-kids only and the employees physically hold onto the last piece.

[mrbean]

I did our first TRU build with my son, making the bat signal. While we were in line I noticed an older kid grab some extra pieces and put them in his pocket. I called him on it, told him the other kids would be disappointed when they came up and pieces were missing. I think if TRU pre bagged the pieces the experience would be way better. I imagine there are lots of missing pieces by the time the last people in line get to build their sets. It reminds me of Halloween, when a neighbour left out a bag of candy with a note saying "please take one".

[EdgarDoiron]

Collecting the pieces is what my son(5) and daughter(3) loves the most out of these events.

Coming week again no LEGO deals, same old Air Miles crap, is this going to be the LEGO deal every week now? Hell i would even prefer their 20% off deals, this is getting ridiculous.

[harry99]

I'd rather buy from S@H... much better customer service :). Plus you get freebies if you time your order(s) right... can't beat that!
