My goodness!  B&N was hopping today with LEGO sets being pulled for online orders left and right.  I saw a few behind the counter I missed out on.  One associate was scanning the shelves for a set I probably already had in my stack on the way to check out.  I made two separate purchases/trips due to my carry limit which resulted in two HP 4-pack promos.  If only I had the morning off work to get around to all of the local stores.  This was a great combo deal.

is this normal?  I personally don't mind but what if this would have occurred a few days before xmas?  Would they still have closed down?

I know what it is for, I just don't remember this happening when other presidents passed away.  Sucks about your jacked up boxes. I feel you

Federal employee here. Yes, the last few presidents that have passed away, the federal government has either done a half day or full day shut down for a National Day of Mourning.

I would expect that, regardless of administration, you could expect this to happen. However, the last Democrat President to pass away was LBJ in 1973!

Last time a President from the opposite party died was 1994, with Clinton in office and Nixon passing away. We observed a National Day of Mourning then, too.

I ended up getting 15 or 20 of them for $20 each. None in my area are less than $20. I'm keeping an eye on them though and if they do drop to $7, there are supposedly around 400 of them within a 100 mile radius of me. I'll be taking a road trip to see how many fit in my truck... then I'll need to figure out where to store them when I get home.

How do you check to see stock around you?  All of my stores blew them out within 2 days. $12 and $7 never showed up. Ever. 

Anyone have success b&n with store pickup?  My closest store doens't have anything but the one by my sister does ?

Yes.  I would post pics but this is the wrong forum.  Plus, it was so good they’d be NSFW.  Let’s just say I came home with 6 HP from one store.

Has this been priced as low before?

 

LEGO Star Wars TM Bounty Hunter Speeder Bike™ Battle Pack 75167

 

$7.99

I believe a clearance price of $9 is the lowest it has been but I could be wrong. Perhaps some made it to $7 or $4/5

where are the hp packs are they behind the counter?

The one store I visited previously, they were behind the counter.

The FOMO is strong today. Closing my 20 tabs now. We'll survive missing a deal.

The lowest I've seen was $9 during WM clearance this past summer. I'm sure others have and will find them lower, but this is certainly a good price for four bounty hunters.

Has a list of sets included in the B&N sale been posted anywhere, or are we just searching their website? I just got home from work so I have some catching up to do.

Picked up two battle packs which were essentially BOGO. No promo code however and I couldn’t find any of those 10% online order coupons either.

Terry, I checked around here and didn't see much available.   Call ahead if any stores around you actually have anything you are looking for.  I was not able to "buy online" as stock numbers are low or zero, might be different by you though.  Search their website, find the coupon that says 50% off SELECT lego.  if you missed it, didn't miss much.

Thanks, guys. Yeah, not much to get terribly excited about other than the Coast Guard Headquarters.
