October 14, 201312 yr I'm also hoping to rack up my numbers of these. They went on sale (30% off then 50% off in store) last year around Feb-Mar, so hopefully I can pick up a couple then. Great set, and if it retires this year the price is going to soar. Nice buys, by the way. I'd be all over stink on crap for 30% off WV sets. Still kicking myself for not buying more Post Offices and Bakeries last year.
October 14, 201312 yr 1 Orc Forge, 1 Uruk-Hai Army & 1 Architecture White House at a buy 2, get one for free deal. Tempted to buy some bigger sets but already stocked up pretty badly last month. :)
October 14, 201312 yr 3 PAB Cups, a Delorean, and Halloween Minifigure Set (Freebie Holiday Set too!) Good stuff
October 15, 201312 yr CityHelicopter Rescue (4429): $30Fire Boat (60005): $17Cement Mixer (60018): $17.59 (Target matched Amazon)FriendsPet Salon: $24.97 (regular price in Walmart for a good while now)Downtown Bakery: $24.99NinjagoGarmatron: $30.40 (Target matched Amazon)Total: $144.95Saved: $64.99Didn't save a whole lot but it is a little more than the cost of that Walmart exclusive Helicopter Rescue set so in a way I could say what I saved paid for it in full.
October 15, 201312 yr TOK you don't mess around when you go shopping lol. I picked up the Winter Village Market, 41999, 2 xmas tree stand promos, and 3 polybags: pumpkin, thanksgiving dinner, and the spring scene.

October 15, 201312 yr Talk about not messing around! Thats 3 sold out sets you managed to snag. Nice! Thanks, but havent you heard? TLG is making, like, a bajillion 41999s and then fibbing about it being sold out. I think I should return it or else the universe will collapse or something.
October 15, 201312 yr My fleet of #9396 came in today. Also picked up Fire Brigade to take advantage of double points and the holiday freebie.
October 15, 201312 yr took advantage of double VIP points and bought: winter village, winter cottage and VW van ... x3 christmas tree stand ... will go back before the month ends and buy more ...
October 15, 201312 yr My wife got me the Ewok Village for my birthday yesterday. My son and I will get it built this weekend, along with the Endor battle pack and the smaller Endor playset released last year. We have the Endor bunker set and a few of the old AT-ST sets as well so this could be quite the battle scene. If I had the bricks for it I'd do up my own landing pad/gate building for use by the UCS Shuttle and the motorized AT-AT we have.
October 15, 201312 yr TOK you don't mess around when you go shopping lol.Ha ha. I may not buy Lego often but when I do, I go for the discounts first. If I can find anything (even a small set) for an extra dollar off, I will. I still can't believe I found those two Walmart exclusives half off but that was what the price sticker stated. I was going to wait a little longer for those Friends sets but I don't see them going for less really. (I probably wouldn't be there if it happened anyway.) I'm only missing Temple of Light for my collection of this years Ninjago sets but I've got other items on my list I'm going for instead unless that one goes on heavy discount. City Helicopter Rescue (4429): $30 Fire Boat (60005): $17 Cement Mixer (60018): $17.59 (Target matched Amazon) Friends Pet Salon: $24.97 (regular price in Walmart for a good while now) Downtown Bakery: $24.99 Ninjago Garmatron: $30.40 (Target matched Amazon) Total: $144.95 Saved: $64.99 Didn't save a whole lot but it is a little more than the cost of that Walmart exclusive Helicopter Rescue set so in a way I could say what I saved paid for it in full. I forgot I finally found Series 3 of the Friends Collectables at Target along with Series 2 so I bought a complete Series 3 for myself. (I already got Series 2 from Walmart couple months earlier.) Now I have a complete collection of all those Friends Collectables!
October 16, 201312 yr Today I was lucky to find 3 hobbit sets at 60% off. Wargs at $18 Mirkwood $12 Billbow and gollum at $4. Bought 5 of each. Thinking I should go back and buy out all. I am starting to think they will be discontinued in our area at the wall arts for the new sets.
October 16, 201312 yr Today I got: a) The unexpected gathering mini modular Need to find extra storage space for them
October 16, 201312 yr 1x 9450 Ninjago Epic Dragon Battle 1x 60022 City Cargo Terminal 1x 75021 SW Republic Gunship $190 from CL
October 17, 201312 yr 2X Helm's Deep $190 (wanted to pick a couple more up as they are now SOLD OUT on LEGO Shop at Home) While picking up, the guy offered me some deals I just couldn't pass up: 40% off the following sets AT-TE $55 Jabba's Barge $75 LOTR Pirates Ambush $60

Those are great prices. I finally ordered the Ewok Village from LEGO Shop at Home. Been waiting for double points month + the christmas, star wars, and lego employee minifig promos. Plan on selling the figures, since I don't care about the store employee fig and I don't collect non-OT star wars.

Plan on selling the figures, since I don't care about the store employee fig and I don't collect non-OT star wars. Just got lucky really. I inquired on an eBay listing that was close to my area to see if I could pick up the Helm's Deeps to avoid shipping charges and the guy had a bunch of other sets that he hadn't listed yet so gave me some great deals to buy the lot.
October 17, 201312 yr Today I got: a) The unexpected gathering mini modular Need to find extra storage space for them I think the Mini Mods are going to fly one day as they are only available at RRP from LEGO or >RRP elsewhere eg. Amazon. I've got 5 of them.
October 17, 201312 yr I still need to pick up some mini mods, i think they'll do pretty well. And I definitely want to build one. But every time I go shopping I end up buying something else... I'm guessing a lot of us have that problem lol
October 17, 201312 yr 1x 9450 Ninjago Epic Dragon Battle 1x 60022 City Cargo Terminal 1x 75021 SW Republic Gunship $190 from CL photo 4.JPG WOW Congrats! Awesome deal. Even better than Kmart 50% clearance price.
October 17, 201312 yr Picked up an R2-D2 with the double VIP points. The lego store employee allowed me to have both the Lieutenant and Winter scene polybag.
