I know I would feel the same whether I bought big yesterday or had already used my budget for the month prior to yesterday. I'd feel the same if I blew through my budget yesterday and didn't have anything left over for this weekend. The point I'm trying to make for anyone that missed out yesterday is that other opportunities will arise, so if you didn't have the ability to participate yesterday you'll get another chance some other time. That's what I tell myself when I miss out -- there will always be another opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hansomebricks Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Whoa we have a conspiracy theory about whether he even buys the sets or not, haha. This thread about "the guy in the video" is getting hilarious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now you know, always buy LEGO first and then see if you have some spare change left for lunch or to put gas in your car! Left turns are expensive!

He gets 10% off a set that TRU is charging $16.99 for? That is more than the MSRP! Maybe he should try Target next time with a Red Card.

Personally, I'd rather buy them at the lego store or online and get some promos and VIP. I certainly wouldn't make a video of it and think was cool enough to put on the web.

Hansomebricks Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Cladner, the one person that did any research into the matter before posting a comment. Then when he did post, made a suggestion that is a reasonable one but wouldn't work for that volume. Good job sir! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point on the TRU exclusive. I guess you can tell I haven't been stocking up on the Speed Champions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously doubt the person bought the sets. No purchase video is complete without the token stupid questions/comments from the checkout clerk (typically "SOMEONE must like LEGOssss") Edited November 25, 2015 by cladner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
