What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

1 pteranodon capture for $9, arm swiped 6 SC museum sets for $5 each, 3 each deep sea scooters (3.50) and deep sea starters for $5, 1 rhino and spider man for $19, broke down for the two elves sets: marketplace and treetop hideaway for 30 and 25 respectively. All at WM. target was very slim pickings as there were no less than 5 workers resetting the entire toy section with new stuff. Left with only 3 senate commando troopers for 6.48 each.

I want the tractor and tank, the boy wants the helicopter.

Well, if you can live without the minis, I think we need to talk...

Bought a London Bus promo on eBay.  Noticed it was a race to the bottom.  Found a BIN with OBO.  Got it for $20, and used the $5 in eBay Bucks that were expiring tomorrow.

Math worked out much better than buying $75 in non-exclusives without a discount.

Also got a London bus Promo for $20.. Better than spending $75 on a full price Lego order.

That's usually how I do it, especially if there is nothing I want to buy, although this time there are some nice new sets out....

I am not sure about this London Bus promo, I have no desire here for the London Bus :beerhat:

so, what exclusive under $160 do you think i should buy for the london bus

I'm personally on the fence to what to do. I use these "freebies" as extra reasons to buy stuff. Thinking of doing 3 separate orders. One Big Ben. 1. Spider-Man bridge and the new smaller stuff to hit over 75. It's all stuff I want. I would get 3 buses and if I sell them for 20-25 that's roughly 75 dollars toward my Initial purchase. Plus 5% back from VIP points.

When I sell the freebies/add the VIP points per purchase/credit card rewards. it's roughly 35% off the order.

Maybe I'm not doing it right but to have a new set and in sense get a discount (works for me)

For personal build, I was going to grab the VW Beetle.  If I was going more expensive, then I would have gone with the Brick Bank.  Investment-wise, I'd be trying to get as near $75 as possible for an exclusive, so I'd go with Minis, or Beetles or something else similar in price.

I'm passing through "Buckwild" country today. Kmart has added some LEGO stuff to this clearance round. I'll add them in the KMart thread later.
Picked up all these for $180 out the door after coupons and 20% off clearance. They must have found some Mixels Series 2 in the back, picked up a dozen. They rang up $3.44 each.

I think that you should have your own 'what did exciter find in the wildernerss today' topic. :)

We just ordered the new Ninjago: Airjitzu Battle Grounds. We had to toss on the last 2 Airjitzu Flyers we didn't have to make our set (they were on sale) so we made the $75 minimum for the dumb bus, on the bright side we cashed in $60.00 of VIP so everything with tax cost $16.93 hoping to sell the bus to cover it all....

Apparently Gamestops are flooded with these. This guy was generous, 25 in one shot.

Just walked up and asked if they had any Lego promos to hand out without buying anything? Similar to the Silver Centurion/Iron Patriot polybag situation several months ago?
