Inzane Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I've noticed several times now over the last month or more that LEGO has specifcally highlghted as an exclusive from their sales. Latest example was an email I got today for 20% toys. Sure enough, LEGO excluded. It never used to be excluded from sales, from my recollection.

Veegs Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Seems like the new norm, unfortunately. I hated that some of the TRU Bricktober promos excluded Friends/Disney. I would have cleaned out their Princess Castles at MSRP if I got a Bricktober exclusive + polybag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Last code/coupon I saw that applied to Lego was back in September (http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/11603-chaptersca-25-off-1-item-coupon/) 25% off one item. My guess is that some people abused it and Indigo decided no more. Personally, I only bought one $99 set with the code so it wasn't me. Their BF and CM deals all wanted people to buy books. Blah... who wants books? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Lego is a top selling toy now even for Chapters - they don't actually need to discount it to move the product out the door - they only use it to bring in customers in hopes that they will buy other stuff while they are there.

Sandwraith Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Have a couple giftcards for Chapters i was hoping to combine with a coupon this season, but it's looking pretty grim for Lego to be included in these sales from now on here... Excuse for me to use these cards on personal builds > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Disappointing, I`ve ordered a fair amount from them because of the promos, though certainly not enough to to create an issue. 25% off is great when ordering for your collection, better than 20% at TRU that`s for sure, not a lot of sets I`d invest in at 25% off though, not when you can search a bit more and buy cheaper, that said, there still are several, just not very many.

seapotato Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 So disappointed. I only bought a Lego advent calendar with the 25% off coupon. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_14 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 So disappointed. I only bought a Lego advent calendar with the 25% off coupon. You're lucky to even find any. Those things are selling like crazy. Turn that frown upside down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedsausage Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 So disappointed. I only bought a Lego advent calendar with the 25% off coupon. Ditto. One for personal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee3 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 same. I check them from time to time because I have 100's of $ in their gift cards. All of their sales are excluding Lego. Seems like the new trend though. Even the discounts at try have nearly disappeared. It's all something x air miles points now. I think it may be this way for the foreseeable future here in Canada.

Inzane Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Even the discounts at try have nearly disappeared. It's all something x air miles points now. Did you mean to say TRU there? I've noticed this too. Gone seems to be the trend of the continually rotating themes of the week at ~20-25% off at TRU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
