My kids’ birthday is coming up soon and Dad does not like to give the usual gift bags. Last year I found Mixels on sale and mixed in (no pun intended) a few Series 15 minifigs for the gift bag thing. This year the Target BOGO 40% sale hit at the right time and a bit of inspiration hit me. Today I bought two of the 61034 City People in Park sets for $47.18 total and got the minifigs I need for the birthday party. Looking forward to keeping the leftover minfigs for us! Maybe this post will help other BPers and give them ideas for their kid’s birthday parties. This community rocks!

That's what I said!

It puzzles me why people choose to post odd stuff in a deals thread.

I'm in Canada visiting family for Passover - stopped at a Lego store and got Joker and Batman Brickheadz along with the Y Wing and U Wing Microfighters. Because of the price in Toronto it broke the $50 canadian barrier and I also got a Beetle Promo set. With the US Exchange rate I ended up getting all of that for about $43.50 American.

bought some sealed gems for my personal collection - Haunted House, Town Hall, Grand Emporium and MetalBeards Sea Cow

Trying to contribute more, this is the latest MOC I've completed. It's been around a few months and I'm trying to figure out how to get better pictures while having no lighting equipment. It's a Neo Futuron spaceship named "Deep Space Sentinel." I had the trans-blue dome panels from old sets and I've always wanted to make a spaceship cockpit with them. It got a little bigger than I'd originally planned. The hardest part was getting a stand built. It meant I had to keep it mostly un-assembled while I figured out a decent stand. I want to do the same thing with the other 80's-90's space themes; make giant spaceships.

Proposal: create a mirror thread called Daily Deals Discussion. Put some code in that copies each entry in DD to that thread (and a sticky to the DDD thread in DD). Then moderate the DD and delete non-deal posts, while allowing discussion in DDD

Often it leads to the best tips and info.

I wish I was retiring soon ..

The cheap keychains have been good for party favors this year too.

You mean the girl that surrounds your post?!

I'm probably going to give out dimensions packs.

Finally got the Parisian Restaurant and Palace Cinema that I bought with r'us rewards points. This will be my first time diving into the modulars and I am super excited!!!!

Found Vampyre Castle 9468 gently used for $30

There is no doubt this will be the Death Star for the Disney line up.

The scene at the Main Street store at Magic Kingdom. It is true, all of it.

Lol

Do you WUPHF?

Bought some of these at Legoland, but they have plenty.

Juniors Ariel's Dolphin Carriage SOLD OUT in europe shop at home, on sale at all retailers in USA. Cheapo small Juniors and Princess sets have been very good to me. this post is doomed for all eternity to having that annoying chick laughing above me.

$1.65 keychain works the best. cheap but awesome ever party gift.

You guys suck, carry on. Stick to defined price match rules for discussion.

Check these out: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=lego+silent+mary+comparison I've still haven't got round to building mine, but i think it will look ok against QAR, but not the BP. I'm going to mod my BP with an extra hull part, should be easy enough.

McKinney Texas Thursday

saw this built in store today and wow! I went from zero interest to hubba hubba. Not sure I have it in my budget or any space to display it (especially with the impending Snowspeeder) but if I can get a good deal on this someday I definitely want it. Are there pics online of this ship next to the previous 2 POTC ships? I missed out on those but would be curious to see the comparison

The boxes will show "do not open until may 1st"....to that effect. So, unless an employee just doesn't pay attention to the rules or they have none on the shelves and get an exception, good luck. Or, just ask when you get there.

Ok, i thought we did, merged it here now.

you had me worried that my buyin suddenly sucked. i wouldn't put it past TLG to have lowered the price and raised it again. 39.99 is overpriced for this set and its brethren the first night .

2X LOTR Black Gates for $155 shipped on EBAY

I hate to break it to you Phil, but you saved 54%. MSRP on 21120 is $39.99. https://shop.lego.com/en-US/The-Snow-Hideout-21120

Possibly like the Disney Castle in Disney properties.....

That post is from this past December. All the indications seem to be that everything that was previously announced will still be released, but there probably won't be a third year of releases.

It's kind-a meh. I had some rewards to burn, which helped, plus combined with the BOGO40% gave me a good discount ($4 for LEGO worth $33 MSRP). Plus that helped me earn another reward (since the pre-promo price (i.e. shelf price) counts towards the reward).

I just put together my first BrickHeadz set. I don't see myself getting more of these, but they're clever.

One more, Mr. Creosote?

I was going to say: Who _IS_ buying christmas stuff this time of year, especially when it's not on sale .... but then I sold a christmas bundle (24-in-1 calendar, snowglobe, reindeer poly) on EBay recently so there are people out there who plan ahead. I'm keeping mine (I've got 15 all bought at $2) till closer to the holidays, and if they don't sell (or the market gets flooded, or LEGO decides that this comes back from the dead), I'll part out the bricks.

Good, I always thought this set needed more cheese slopes.

20% off all Lego at Big W this coming Thursday.

Confirm 120€ (italian forum), and It has no structure. 1m high +- http://hbricks.forumcommunity.net/?t=59417828&st=15#entry424236781

I was shocked it wasn't marked up to $400.

At least it's not discounted. Well, annual passers get 10%

nice price. post pics once you're done.

no i think its nya and samurai

I can still pick up tons of ninjago and krusty

Easter Win What You Want sweeps is a $1 doorbuster right now. Also, check your recent VIP Shop Your Way email - I got a $25 back on $60 coupon on one of my accounts (the other got another $10 back on $50).

I posted his last week but someone tried to gain access to my account . So glad I signed up for the two step verification system prior to that .. highly recommend everyone does that , takes a min saves you hours if not months of headache .

I talked them into giving me a batmobile poly with my order cause it was my birthday. Tried to get get the bat battlepod but no joy. Really want one of them.

There may come a time when our clearance is raided......

I reckon both will be done in q4 this year so you should hold on till then - what difference does 6 months make when they have been kept for years? Both of them have substitute models in the Beetle and Big Ben and this year was the overlap.

Here are some ideas on how to get great deals using the above coupon: Depending on whether the coupon counts the pre-promo price or the post-promo price before applying the $5 off (I've seen both happen), you could get 2 $15 sets for $16 total (or 2 $20 sets for $27 total if the $5 off $30 applies AFTER the 40% off). Especially if the BOGO40 stacks with already reduced pricing, this might be very tempting. Again, depending on how the $5 off $30 applies, this could net you 3 fun packs for $16 or a starter pack for $25. The coupon can be reused, but max 1 coupon per transaction.
