Phil B Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Since nobody seems to want to share their EBay coupon deals (are we ashamed or is everybody keeping quiet hoping nobody discovers the hidden gem called White House?), here are my purchases for today: 21033 Chicago Skyline - $0 after EBay Bucks 60134 Fun in the Park - $12.87 after EBay TRU sale price ($30.99), $15 off $75 coupon, and $3 in EBay Bucks (70% off) I tweaked my accounting to charge me full price for the Iconic Easter minifigure I tossed in to get me over $75. Theoretically it should have gotten 8% off as it was $6 out of a $77 total, but since that's around 50 cents I couldn't be bothered. Now let's see what TRU actually delivers. Also today, trying to cash in on SYW Rewards points before the roof caves in at my local Sears: 41311 Heartlake Pizzeria - $17.43 after Sweeps winnings (42% off). Not bad for a set that has been out for 5 days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponderingzissou Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I should have bought 2x Whitehouse. Instead I bought 1x Batman Movie: Scuttler $70 after taxes (from TRU ebay. I'm selling a few of the minifigures that I don't want... slightly embarrassed that I didn't wait a few months for a better deal but the Poison Ivy minifig is beautiful and the Scuttler looks like a fun build. https://shop.lego.com/en-US/The-Scuttler-70908 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TANV Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I did something I swore to never do just since it seemed...excessive. I bought a box of the LEGO Batman minifigures off eBay for $257. Hopefully it ships and more bag-feeling adventures to be had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyHawkeye Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 ordered the detective's office using the coupon on Ebay. $140 total, $0 out of pocket after Ebay bucks. Looking forward this year to building the newer modulars I hadn't gotten around to yet, including this one, Parisian Restaurant & Brick Bank (and now Assembly Square). Pretty excited about that lineup. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, I usually get all of ebay's promotional emails, didn't see anything yesterday. I have about $100 in ebay bucks and a sale on top of that would have made for a nice purchase on there somewhere. Thanks for the help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These flash sales I never get messages for (folks see it on eBay homepage banner maybe?). Anytime I see them it is because of the group posting in DD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Collector Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Picked up TA 31053 on clearance at Walmart for $23.97 and a few of the new Batman polybags from Walmart on my way into work this morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanatos2pi Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Picked up two sets of the architecture capitol for 58€ each. Not such a big discount like some of you seem to get, but 42% of an architecture set should be okay. Was from thalia.de with an additional 15% email code. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brickbuilder77 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Purchased 3 first order transporters for £40 each and 2 Ewok villages for full price, I know stupid me but I wanted one for me and one to long hold just incase. The store employee hated me going "thats too damaged can you see if the others are the same, awesome one with no damage, just need one more now" the look of hatred on his face made me feel bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go today before the hoarde descend at the weekend you should be able to get one. Ugh, last time I bought CMFs from Argos it was when they had Simpsons S2 for £1 each, I thought I'd go in for a round 100 but the basic customer ordering system in store wouldn't let me order more than 16 at a time, so I asked the woman at the till if she could manually add them Somehow she came up with that should couldn't add more than 5 at a time, and each addition was taking the POS computer a good 5 seconds of processing time. Turns out the 5 at a time max was made up because she managed to add a few 50 at a times and ended up with 270ish after the computer caught up with itself. I bought them anyway but they insisted on counting them out of the cases into one huge shopping bag and wouldn't give me the boxes. Very tedious. Edited January 7, 2017 by Rog posted prematurely.
