[quote name='scp89']the barnes and noble black friday sale anyone have any details? do you need a coupon for the 50% off or what??? is it confirmed that it won't work for legos? no matter - the youngest wants a leapster leappad not that I'll find one but I'll try still...[/QUOTE]

Actually, I just read the memo. It should actually work for Legos and Leap Pads, but not board games... Guess if I want Battles of Westeros, I need to use the 40% off coupon.
 
[quote name='Zepp-Head']I've noticed that the online sales always start earlier than stated in the email. I guess because the website people aren't around at midnight, so they do the changes to the site before they go home for the day? Anyway, because of this I've been checking their site all day and there was only one Pet Shop in stock this morning. It was already gone around noon, well before the BOGO50 started. Apparently someone just wanted to buy one even without a sale. OR: some people have theorized that TRU.com makes the expensive sets "Out of Stock" right before a BOGO starts. That may be true, but not always because once I almost BOGOed 2 "in stock" Death Stars, but shipping was not free at the time and soured the deal for me.[/QUOTE]

I think what they do is limit what they have available in stock and stuff runs out well before the warehouse is empty.

It wouldn't surprise me if that was the case.
 
Last year, I was able to get some cool B2G1 TRU deals and stock ran out quick. So far this year, I've only gotten some average B1G1_50% but almost nothing on the Pet Shop. I did the $10+$10 Amazon Mastercard deal on the Pet Shop, but that's just 13% off.
 
I heard the OOS right before the sale starts theory, too. So far, I was only once able to grab modular buildings during a BOGO 50% sale, but this ways almost two years ago. I remember it was somewhere near the beginning of 2010.

However, this is when the BOGO 50% started at midnight. I just waited around and grabbed them immediately after the sale started. Since then I can never manage to check the site at the beginning of the sale, so I can't really say if the buildings go out of stock right before the sale or not.

Either way, I do hope that I get a chance to put one of these sales to use to get the Pet Shop and Grand Emporium, as other than the TRU sales there just doesn't seem to be any other occasion to get them at a significantly lower price.
 
Does anyone have the scan of the Target $5 off coupon that includes the Heroica games? It's no longer on line and I'm finally getting around to buying it. :lol:

(It's not the one in the toy book.)

I got the coupon from one of the wish books in a rack in the toy section. It's probably hit or miss finding the books in the store now, though.

Why is the Leappad so popular this year? We were looking into it and decided to just get the Vtech Innotab instead, out of all the videos we watched on both we felt that would fit are daughter best. The one thing I do give the Leappad is the expanded software from the Explorer library but that never interested me in the first place.

It might be because it's on everyone's top ten gift list this year. My coworker bought one too. He wasn't going to get it yet, but I told him it was on a bunch of top ten lists and he should get it before it sells out.

That would explain a lot then, I was wondering why they were selling out.
 
I forgot to post this here... I built this for a TnB contest. I wanted a set to expand the Winter Village so I built a candy shop. Click on the pictures if you want to see some more views of it.

Back view: The lady gets her candy weighed while her husband picks out some more. Upstairs, the chocolatier makes some chocolate treats for the holiday rush.

I want to enter the contest but I just don't have time.

I bought a log capin from BN for $19 ofter tax. I have one more coupon and thinking about getting the huge AC set but it still be like $59 and I think Amazon might have a better deal at some point.

You should try to whip something up quickly... But if you're not going to enter, I would appreciate your vote! :)
 
Just a heads up about some sets being discontinued. Spoke with my manager the other day and he told me some SKUs are no longer available for our inventory. These are the older Kingdoms sets which includes the King's Castle, Outpost Attack and the two smallers sets.The Medieval Market is on its way out as well. The Imperial Flagship is also gone. Get them while you can!

We will also be selling the first Limited Edition Holiday set on Black Friday, so that would be a perfect time to scoop it up if you didn't splurge $99 last month.

If you guys have any questions please PM me.

The MMV lasted longer than I thought it would. So the Fire Brigade is sticking around?

Not sure yet, but put your money on the Fire Brigade. They are still available for us to order so we'll definitely know by next month when the SKU sheet is updated again. The MMW is the final set of the Castle theme and it's certainly gone longer then expected! Prison Tower Rescue is also leaving us.

The Mummy Battle packs are on sale at 50% off at the Legostores! After the holidays Pharoah's Quest is kicking the bucket along with Atlantis so expect our stores to clearance those immediately.

Angel I'll send you PM tonight.

Wouldn't the last set actually be the Joust set ? ;)


I seen the list of sets for Brick Friday... not much, just 25% off 25 sets, quite a few of crap (Duplo and Bellville). There is some SW sets, more than I thought there would be. A certain dark green train might be on the list. A couple games too.


I need to get more Mummy Battle packs, but I don't know if I want to spend 99 to get that holiday set 2....
 
I wish those Mummy Battle packs included an Anubis ... actually, I wish there was a practical way to get an Anubis figure without having to buy the most expensive PQ set.
 
[quote name='etcrane']I wish those Mummy Battle packs included an Anubis ... actually, I wish there was a practical way to get an Anubis figure without having to buy the most expensive PQ set.[/QUOTE]

if PQ ever deserved another run, I bet they would probably toss Anubis in a $20 set.

I think some of the sets were just poor. Pyramid is awesome, but other than that, not much.

Will the sets on this list be on sale in store or online (or both)? Also, any idea if the discount from the scratch off card in store stacks with the 25% off?

I assume this list isn't publicly available?

The MMW is themed as a "Castle" set. The Joust will be a "Kingdoms" set.

I assume both. No idea on the scratch card but I'd assume it should stack since it's a sale price instead. And the list isn't available till Friday. I've seen it only because I have someone on the inside in advertising.

Ah you're right! :applause:

I only picked up one, I always wondered if I should bother with a second one...

Thanks.
 
Looks like the Barnes and Noble Black Friday deal for 50% off Toys and Games might not include Legos. All their Lego items on the website now say "This item does not qualify for coupons or promotional discounts unless expressly stated."

Don't know how it will work in store though. I used one of those 40% coupons on a Lego set in store yesterday without a problem.

I'm betting they won't give away sets …

Lego is only doing 25%
 
Look for Lighting Deals starting at 3PM today, looks like were getting Star Wars Pod Racer, Pirates Mill & White Cap Bay and a Cars set.
 
If you guys are buying on lego.com, might possibly want to wait for this time period...cashback at 10% thru rewardsrunner.com.

6:00 PM - 7:00 PM CST Target 12% Cash Back

7:00 PM - 8:00 PM CST LEGO 10% Cash Back

Okay, I gotta go back to online shopping...got like 15 tabs up. Thanks for heads up on Amazon lightning deal...another tab to open now. :p

Here's hoping it does work! I also used the 40% to get the King's Castle, but if I could get it for 50% I'll definitely do a return. Crossing my fingers on this!

I work tomorrow at my store so I'll post up what sets we have on sale and the deal with scratch coupons. I think it's going to be absolute mayhem, ugh.
 
I guess not too many are biting on that pitiful podrace Amazon deal. Only 28% off Amazon? C'mon! When did they stop doing the 50% off deals of years past? Regardless, I will still consider Whitecap Bay in a few hours. :lol: I already got the POTC Old Mill for about 50% off at Fred Meyer, and I doubt Amazon will beat that. It was funny, I actually saw the percentage claimed number go DOWN the podrace set! I only really want the minifigs from that set, so I will hope for a 50% off Target clearance down the road.
 
Even last week the deals were at least 40% off. Anything less than 33% is a fail to me. The mill set is only 25% off! What a joke!

I've seen it close to that price before and this was the only set I was really looking forward to today but I guess I'll pass.

Agreed, major joke. I doubt the Bay will be 50%.
 
For you guys who have been keeping up on the Lego Black Friday deals, can i get the Lego Millennium Falcon at a price less than $100? If so, where (online preferred)? Thank you for any help.

[quote name='skiizim']If I didn't have 2 dropships I might of picked up another one, the Tantive IV is somewhat tempting though.[/QUOTE]

If I had more money I'd pick up the Imperial Flagship but I'm fairly broke as it is from buying xmas gifts for the family.

I'm sure that one is going to go quick, Tito said they are not going to restock this set anymore either. It's a descent price, a bit under 25% but since it quite possibly will be discontinued soon it is an awesome price!!!

Yeah, sucks for me. I'll have to add this to the list of sets I'll probably never own. Great set, though.

Edit: Spend $149 get 10% off entire purchase, Holiday set 2 of 2, and free shipping. So the Imperial Flagship + the Tanker Truck ($14.98) means you effectively get the Tanker Truck for free AND the free Holiday set. Damn being broke sucks. That's a damn decent deal.

Now that I safely have them on order through the Black Friday sale, I can report that Imperial Flagship and Fire Brigade are definitely discontinued. As are the currently "Sold Out" Scorpion Pyramid and HP Hogwart's Express. There are others too, but I didn't want to hassle the poor lady on the phone anymore. I spoke with this Shop at Home rep on Wednesday and she said once stock runs out at Shop at Home and other retailers, that's it for these sets. They probably didn't discount Fire Brigade like they did the Flagship because it is more popular and they know it will sell through even without a discount. She said only about 100 Brigades remain in their warehouse and recommended I order right at midnight tonight, which I did! This is my second - its a really nice set. I may get one more solely for investment purposes. I've been sitting on 2 Green Grocers for over a year and they have increased nicely.:D

Thanks for pointing that out. I forgot about the extra 10% off. I went with two POTC battle packs to push me over the 149.

Looks like I'm never going to have the Fire Brigade. I like the set, but I only have so much money and there are other big sets I want more.
