• The January 2015 LEGO Store Calendar is now available and there are some very cool stuff happening. First is the Free Exclusive LEGO Creator Flower Cart (40140) with purchases of $75 or more. This will be available during the whole month of January or while supplies last. This little polybag is a nice complement for the LEGO Creator Detective

Thought the same when I was placing the order (thinking I would have to call) but it came through on the confirmation email.

Wish I could get a SSD, HH or TH for the prices listed on the UK site.

Interesting that DS, TB & the Red 5 X-Wing aren't included.

They can

Santa's workshop and battle at the black gate for me. Promo did not show on the order. Hopefully it will be on the confirmation email.

SSD, TH, R2 and HH are extremly discounted, wehre the avaliable this morning?

i think thats a bug or something. it was already sould out and now its just showing the discount.

One of the good things about being in Australia is that due to the time zone we'll be getting in first on all the items that state "Call to check availability".

My theory is that they put out these discounts on retired

So it's 10:30am here on January 2 and I just tried calling Lego Shop at Home to see if I could get some of the "Call to check availability" items - l got the standard voicemail of "please call back during business hours". It is business hours Lego!! 

I've been smashing them all morning also, if you check the website it says lines are extremely busy in OZ. :/

Is it just me or are they out of AT-DP and Flower Cart polybags in North America already? I guess a UCS Slave I will do that but I still thought they'd survive at least a week.

They are both gone at the moment.  I hope someone will call and ask them what is up.  I have had my fill of strange question calls to Lego LEGO Shop at Home lately and do not want to push it with more but would be curious to know their response.

Going to be a costly day on the 5th with double VIP points

Hmmm? Where do you see that?

In other news, Shop@Home (CAN) doesn't offer the flower cart set anymore. The Friend's Minicart is still being offered.

I'm seeing the same.   Hopefully this is just a temporary glitch??  

AT-DP sold out in stores by third day.

Interesting..

 

Was going to keep the ones i have on the way for myself, but now i just may need to think about keeping them to sell (unless it is just a glitch).

Thankfully I had spread out my orders to receive multiple freebies. I was only keen on getting the flower cart for myself and for resale. The Friends minigolf figure is pretty common so i wasn't too interested in keeping it. The Star Wars one doesn't have much of a resale value as a minifigure polybag. I've only scored 3 flower carts and one minigolf so far.

They might have more stock at the B&M store towards the end of the month. On Shop@Home they will give you as much as all three freebies in one single transaction, whereas in the store they only give you a choice.

I went to my local store over lunch at got one flower cart (for my own collection).   Staff there said the ability to "stack" the promos within one order online was a glitch and was not intended to work that way.   That probably contributed to the speed with which they ran out.

My Lego store let me stack. I even asked and they said there was no official policy from TLG that they could not.

You see... I am not the only one who is skipping lunch to buy lego.

If only I lived in Italy. Then I could take a 4 hour lunch break and go buy legos.

Ok guys, did anyone else notice whether or not they earned VIP points on their >$75 purchase to get the flower cart?   My points are not showing, however the points I earned for a 2nd smaller purchase to use the January calendar coupon (minifig offer) did show up.

 

I'm hoping this was a mistake that can get fixed, or a delay on the system, and not that you have to choose either VIP points or promo.
