Starts Friday.

 

I'll keep going with a new thread for now until we decide if we want to merge or whatnot.

 

Thanks to Stragus we already anticipated this, but now it's official

 

Make sure to use CineplexHoliday on any order over $40 online, i believe this will be the last sale to use it(?). If you have any 7965's left, now is a good time to get em. At %20 off even an inflated price tag of $199 - there's still money to be made even if you turn around and sell it same day.

 

Edit: This is assuming 7965 is actually included in the sale, it was for the previous sale, so i'm assuming it will be.

Not even sure I've used a different browser. Haven't done 60 orders though...

What the heck are you guys hoarding from TRUs?

There have been so many great buys! The best 'already retired from S&****' sets are long sold out, but I managed to get some great stuff online as well as in store. Also check out the large Transformers toys and Star Wars Black Series...clearance is BOGO 50% and Cineplex works, too. I think these are easy sells this holiday season, and with the size of the discount it is hard to resist.

There's no hoarding here; we sell around 30k parts per month on BrickOwl and BrickLink, so these purchases mostly maintain the current inventory size.

I live 20 min south of Winnipeg... and qualify as a 'remote' location, not worthy of free shipping.

Ah well, can choose the in-store pickup option, I guess...

Wow. Do you make decent money doing that? I guess you have to be passionate about sorting/organizing bricks and the amount of time you'd inevitably spend doing so.

Frankly, the regular job (I'm a software programmer) pays a lot more per hour.

 

My wife is doing the order picking (25 hours/week or so), and we often hire a few friends to sort parts in short bursts over week-ends. I spend maybe a hour per day to pack orders and customer service.

 

Most importantly, we are also a household of builders. The near infinite supply of parts is very handy, we pick whatever we need right from the store's inventory.

Try their ebay store. Lots of items get free shipping or very cheap. I ordered an MTT off the TRU ebay store, only cost $4 shipping instead of the quoted $44 on their actual website. Down side is no coupon codes, but they still have the sales. And I live an hour south of winnipeg.

So I got my package today from TRU. Never seen a box so badly damage from shipping. Probably last time I order from them. Walmart is way better.

Don't forget to clean out some playmobils and nerfs with that coupon. One last shot tonight. And also call of duty. You can literally build a swat team with those tiny juggernauts in COD and line them up against a lego minifig riot. I am planning to build an anti riot squad standing at my lego train station.

Your situation really makes me jealous.

If you want to set up a store and could use tips, just ask!

I have shared some of my software (BrickSync) and will share more once it gets more user-friendly.

Thanks pal.

 

Will surely need your help if I decide to set up my store

Just a question I figure I should ask here instead of creating a new thread.

 

Does Toys'r'Us Canada ever do clearance sales in store on Lego? I don't mean "normal" sales like these ones, but something a bit more aggressive percentage wise. I haven't seen any and I'm just wondering if I'm just not looking at the right places at the right time.

They do, but very rarely.

Galaxy Squad at %50 a while ago being a recent one. Silver Mine Shootout has been "clearance" priced forever.

And i remember the Dino Trex tracker was clearanced at $40 in my local one, missed them though.

So yes they happen, but rarely and not always on desirable sets.

Silver Mine Shootout... I think they have a guy in the back room making these or something, they are perpetually on 40% off sale & every time one happens to visit TRU there's more of them on the shelf, nearly the entire bottom row of one complete aisle is nothing but sms now.

Someone can share a cineplex code if we can reuse it?

The cineplex code ended March 31.

Yes i just see it!

I've seen up to 50% off on Lego at TRU.  Boxing day 2012 saw 50% off on all discontinued Star Wars, picked up a bunch of 10215s for $44 and change, Pod race, Hoth Echo base, and those sweet Republic Frigates (all 50% off).  Never saw a sale that good there since.  Last year was some pretty slim pickings.  I don't know if that was because Target was giving thier Lego away below cost half the year (   ) or because TRU hit their sales quota and didn't have to dump price to encourage demand....

 

I'm liking these 20% off sales, with the Loonie in the crapper plus discount there is some decent value there.

The CineplexHoliday code was fantastic on top of the 20% off, I already miss it.

I'm a little concerned for the future with Target out... Our part store requires a fairly constant supply of decent sets at 30% off or so.

How about this code:

 

ThymeID10

 

It is $10 off $50+.

 

So this time, if a set reaches $49.99 after discount then this code and make it  40% off.

That would have been great, but it doesn't seem to work, unfortunately. A Google search indicates this might be for baby products only.
