Hah, you beat me to it by 2 minutes! 

 

Think this is worth stocking up on a few? Will CT actually have any lego left for me by the time I get back into town on the 27th? Hmm.

You have to receive it in the mail too, which might take a few days

Gah. Probably useless then. Got in touch with a collector who is downsizing, selling off (current) UCS and modulars at retail, tax free. Better use of funds I reckon. My CT didn't have any of the sweet clearances this thread discussed, which leads me to have little faith they'll have sweet clearances on Saturday. Can't win em all I guess.

I'm thinking about the gc too since I have a $15 off coupon on ebay too. But maybe no lego left lol

Thanks for the reminder! Totally forgot i had that coupon.

Anyone check out CT if they had further clearance prices?

No additional discounts in the lower mainland stores I've been to.

FYI, No more AT-At, ISD  around the Montreal island ..., + no additonal discount so far, I've visisted 9 CT and everything was like it was before Christmas 

the only set left is the Brick Bounty at my local Ct.

No further discount to what was already reported

My North Van CT still had some lego, all of it on clearance but hardly any of it marked, had to use the price checker to confirm. Once confirmed, I went to customer service desk and asked "If I buy these today on Credit, and get a Gift Card in the mail a week or two from now, can I return them and re-buy them on the gift card?" and the reply was "Of course, just bring your receipt in and we can do it without the product." 

 

Kicking myself for not phoning and asking on Boxing Day as I had a $10 ebay coupon which I couldn't otherwise find a good use for... it's expired now (27th, doh) but the $90 GCs are still available. Anyway, if you grab some GCs and then go grab stock (or even potentially use it on stock you've already grabbed) after the mailing duration, you should be good to go on the exchange!

I left my $15 go to waste. didn't get the gift card but didn't think I would make the trip back. Don't want to risk the whole just bring in the receipt thing again ?

It worked out conveniently for me as there's a CT around the corner from work, so I can stop in there literally any day of my work week.  Not so for everyone obviously. Worth a note though. Worst case you bring the product back and return then re-buy I guess. $10 is $10!

It is really only $7.22

How does that math work? Did they charge you shipping to get the GC? I've got an even 90.00 charged to my PayPal.

$10 is 7.22 US, without the bank taking its cut.

Oh! I thought the gift card was in CAD!

This looks like the company that supplies all the big box stores with all the giftcards.

hmmm is it worth buying? All the good Lego sets are gone from CT.

This type of purchasing is not ethical... Why are you encouraging people to do this? That's how all the good promotions and policies that stores have disappear .. when people abuse the process.

Any more posts about this on Brickpicker will be deleted and I'm only leaving this one here because I want people to read my response.

If you'd like to discuss further, please PM me or another mod about it. Thanks.

For sure there's some sets left that might be good later on, but not at only 20%off, I mean for right now.. give us a real deal 35% and more and I would wipe them clean!
