ChristopherJB Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 The Ender Dragon 21117 for 45% off now appears out of stock, I hope everybody got the one(s) they wanted. Lots in stores. Not to worry. Quote
seapotato Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Looks like a pretty boring set....hard to say no to 50% off though lol Quote
Stragus Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 And it's back online if anyone had missed it.http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?productId=43745896 1 Quote
Veegs Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 And it's back online if anyone had missed it.http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?productId=43745896In for the (max) three. Not the best Minecraft set, but at worst I have lots of nieces and nephews that love Minecraft and would love this set. Quote
zettaireido Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 I passed on the Ender Dragon. Still not worth it at that price. I think it will eventually be on clearance at walmart for $40 or something Quote
lobo1969 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Ender Dragon quietly back to $99.99 when I checked today. Thought the sale would last until end of tonight.... Quote
Zender Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I got Best Buy to price match which got an extra $4 off so 45.99+tax 3 Quote
Sandwraith Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Ender Dragon quietly back to $99.99 when I checked today. Thought the sale would last until end of tonight....I think it was advertised as a 3 day sale or something. Quote
lobo1969 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I think it was advertised as a 3 day sale or something.Ah, you may be right Quote
Zender Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I think it was advertised as a 3 day sale or something.When I tried to Price Match at Best Buy the support person said they couldn't because it was a 'limited' time sale. WTF! Every sale is for a limited time or that would be it's regular price. They would not give me a threshold for 'limited time', and pretty much just said they wouldn't do it. Phoned back an hour later and the person I got next had no issue with the 3 days sale and promptly put through the price match. Quote
Zender Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) New code for $10 off of $50. Sounds like it works on Lego but haven't tested:NewArrival16Just tested on new Star Wars Lego and it seems to work so we are good to go! Not sure when it expires though.

Looks like it works on the few LEGO items i've tried. Nothing LEGO related on sale though to combo it with this week Interesting that SW figures/vehicles are already going %20 off this week, might be some good opportunities there.

ChristopherJB Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) Amazing, a new $10 off code, thanks Zender!Now we would just need a simultaneous 20% sale on about anything to place a bunch of orders...20% off plus $10 off would be a colossal fire sale in CAD with this exchange rate. The last time there was a 20% off, I hammered the Avengers tower hard and made about $15USD each on those after ebay fees and shipping. Just do the in store pickup. The cashier at Lansdowne Mall in Richmond B.C. asked me what the heck am I doing with 25 sets of these. I have a suspicioun people will be punching in orders for the monsters minifigs this time if it shows up online.3.99x15 = $60 - $10 = $50$50x1.12 (BC tax) = $56Convert back to USD is around 2.75 a pack after taxes. The cheapest I got the minifigs was in Oregon stacking GCs and 5% red card at target, and it was 2.80USD a pack. And I had to go to the store lining up and the cashier had to scan this and that.So what you really want to see now is the CAD dropping to 72 cents. Then you clean every lego set that is on sale with the code. Minifigures can be used as fillers. Edited September 24, 2015 by ChristopherJB 2 Quote
Sandwraith Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Code was working yesterday. Tried today and can't seem to get it to apply to LEGO or SW figures Anyone else have better luck? Quote

My local postal worker gave me a lot of strange looks in the spring when I was making so many small orders. I think one day they brought 15 mid-sized boxes to my door. I have so many TRU boxes folded up in my storage room it is ridiculous. Unfortunately they aren't as usefully sized as amazon or TLG boxes, though, and I'm often too lazy or busy to modify them Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 lol.. I had to rent a van and drive to the back of purolator so they could unload the skid... I think the poor purolator guy just "nope-d" his way out of my delivery that one time. hahaha. Quote

I think the poor purolator guy just "nope-d" his way out of my delivery that one time. hahaha. My Purolator guy refused delivery twice with weird online tracking errors such as "Loading dock unavailable". After insisting on the phone, he finally arrived, rang and asked for our help to unload. It was quite a large truck so I asked " Which boxes are ours?". His reply: " All of them." It was glorious. Edited September 25, 2015 by Stragus 4 Quote
Stragus Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Code was working yesterday. Tried today and can't seem to get it to apply to LEGO or SW figures Anyone else have better luck? It appears to be working on 40 minifigs, just for testing. Did you forget to clear cookies? Quote
Sandwraith Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) It appears to be working on 40 minifigs, just for testing. Did you forget to clear cookies? Got it to work on minifigs, but no other basic sets so far. Yesterday it worked on basic sets as i picked up a MM and a SW figure. Tried cookie clearing/diff browser/guest account. Edit: Fine print: Save $10 when you spend $50 or more (before taxes) on any baby products. I guess they applied the "baby" filter recently Edited September 25, 2015 by Sandwraithx157 Quote

I guess they applied the "baby" filter recently I guess since the minifig heads are hollow and won't block your airway if swallowed babies can play with minifigs? Good to know we still have baby toys in the house if anyone brings one over!!! 2 Quote
Thumper Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 30x air miles points at TRU on September 26th (in-store/on-line)... doesn't say Lego is excluded as far as I can see... Quote
Stragus Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 30x air miles points at TRU on September 26th (in-store/on-line)... doesn't say Lego is excluded as far as I can see...I have never bothered with air miles (I just put my mother's number whenever asked), do you know how that translates into a discount percentage? Quote
jeff_14 Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) My rule of thumb is 10 air miles are worth a $1. It usually costs $20 of spending to get one air mile at TRU. So if you spend $20 you now get 30 air miles or $3. That's a 15% discount right there. Edited September 25, 2015 by jeff_14 1 Quote
