My sister in law works for HBC (the parent company of Zellers). She says that as of right now, they plan to keep operating the Zellers that Target doesn't take over. At least for a while. And even if they close all the remaining Zellers at some point, you can still use the Zellerd rewars points (HBC rewards) at The Bay, Home Outfitters and online. But unless you do a lot of shopping at those stores, there really isn't any reason to get an HBC credit card to get a small discount.

Does anyone know if they actually have stock of these two sets?

I would suspect that they have extra stock that they just put out on Saturday - otherwise the whole sale would just be 'false advertisement' (in other words putting something on sale that they don't have is fake advertisement).

I am just quoting the Ontario Consumer Protection Act:

http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/statut ... .htm#s14s2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Part III - Unfair Practices, 14 (2) - Examples of false, misleading or deceptive representations:
8. A representation that the goods or services or any part of them are available or can be delivered or performed when the person making the representation knows or ought to know they are not available or cannot be delivered or performed.

I would hope that they refrain from these practices...

The Moonlight Madness Flier says that Zellers will be closed today from 5-6pm to prepare for this event. Maybe thats the time when they take all their stock from the back.

Too bad you can't combine it with the 10-15% off coupon. But if you have SPC Card, then you can get 10% off and the $10 Gift Card.

Even then, I think Naboo Starfighter is still overpriced. Maybe if it reaches $20 or something, then I'll get it. The set doesn't seems to be moving at all in the stores so lets hope for a clearance soon.

"Can we use this tomorrow with the other gift card coupon?"

Zellers: "yes, you can use this in combination with the other coupon"

@Ice but the $50 Off sale is on Saturday. So you will have to be there early in the morning to be able to snag one.

I'll be there at 8:00 sharp! I am not that crazy that I am going to be there any earlier but at least I will see if they had any at all...

Me too, I'll probably be at the store at 7:90.

Thats pretty sweet then! I really wished they had some the new sets as I would like to pick some up with BOGO 50% off + 10% off + $10 Gift Card.

Its a good price, but I'm not going to get those sets. Need to save money for the new overpriced Star Wars and Super Heroes sets. :)

If you read cashier instructions on the coupon, it says level 3 discount code. That is the same discount code used for SPC so I would assume no. Doesn't hurt to try though. A friend of mine worked there before, hence I know a bit how they operate.
Thanks for the response Ice.

I vaguely thought the spc discount might be level 3, but I couldn't remember.


Also, I just noticed something. You don't actually need to print out the coupon to get the $10 gift card. Quoted from the bottom of the coupon....
To redeem, either surrender this coupon to the cashier or
display it to the cashier on your smart phone
at the start of the sale.

Legobrandon, are you on metric time? :-D

I dropped by my local Zellers today and didn't see the City Corner set. I wonder if it will be different tomorrow morning.

So can we instantly use the 10 dollar gift card toward the purchase, or will we have to use it at another time?

Cannot

"you can't use the $10 gift card in the same transaction or the 1st purchase that got them the gift card. You can use it on a separate purchase AFTER getting the gift card to redeem it. It can be redeemed right after, or next week or month...!" - Zellers FB

Going to Zellers tonight (bad idea, since it is the moonlight sale) to check if they have any stock. Last time they had a moonlight sale, they had the products on a pallet wrapped with plastic wrap and with paper.

I was in to the local store yesterday and they said they were going to be on skids in the toy section. It sounded like there were going to be a lot... they said I would not need to line up, but don't wait until the afternoon :)

Awesome! Thanks for posting that :)

I'm still going to try to head out early tomorrow though.
