gravtation Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Am I the only one !? .... Today I rushed myself to the stores.. I always carry this feeling, that I'll be the last one, that I won't have a chance to score big,.. that everyone seems to be running to the store at the same time I've plan to visit ... that they will run out of their cars, to grab the same ones I was going for But this is just in my head .. so far can't remember that it ever happened... Now with the known special deals of today .. should I RUN again tomorrow with my promo cards for what's left or even untouch at certain stores ... or do I wait to see if there's is a real sale at the Boxing Day. My question is, most of the parents aren't waiting for a special supposed to be day deal at Canadian tire to buy their kids presents "Lego" ...at one week from the D Day, I've bought my Sons gifts a month ago ... is there any chance that there's enough parents to pick all the good sets left ? .. Should I be patient and hope to get better deal with the remaining GOOD lego at 40 or more % off by Boxing day ! Quote

I am not waiting. I am going to the locations I know where there will be ISD remaining. I will not wait till boxing day. 30% off is good enough for me, I rather get to pick and choose now, than nothing to choose from on boxing day. If price drops again, I am sure they will credit you the difference. I wouldn't wait on those AT-ATs either Edited December 18, 2015 by tacsniper Quote
gregpj Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Whoa I don't think my CT has that big a lego section! Does any think the tehcnic cargo plane is worth buying at $129? Nope... Unless you're getting the $50 gift card. It's a cool model but I don't think it will do all that well in retirement. Quote

NO Deal , no rebate, nothing nada, seems like it was untouch since the very first day they put these out for Xmas... full, full full .. Now that is one stocked CT! All of mine (and I've been to 5 or 6 in my area within the past few weeks) only have about 1/4th of that. Craziness. Ended my spree with 6 AT-AT's, 2 ISD, and 2 Bounties. Debated more, but the CC is hurting from the %15 off at TRU >< Will pick up more ISD's or Bounties with my gift cards today. Edited December 18, 2015 by Sandwraithx157 Quote
lego rules Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Ended with just 3 iSD's with one of them using the $50 off. I hit several stores but the stock is gone or small section for Lego. The online inventory tracker is garbage, went to several stores that said they had AT-AT's in stock but nothing. Lots of Bounties at one location but left them all. Quote
Gray2010 Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Came back from CT and was able to pick up 3 more brick bounty. There were some star wars troop transport and a couple of elsa's castle at 39.99. Why pay $39.99 when I can get them for $25.00 right. I will take a look at some more CT near my area. BTW, no ISD nor At-Ats. John Edited December 18, 2015 by Gray2010 Quote
tacsniper Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Huge thanks to Veegs for letting us know on this deal! Got my 3 ISD for free today! Also picked up 12 of the 75016 for $19.30 each Also for those into bricklink and like these drawers to hold your bricks, CT have them on sale as well! Edited December 18, 2015 by tacsniper 1 Quote
Moppy Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Amazing but there is absolutely nothing in the 3 I've gone to in the Lower Mainland... No nice sets, very little Lego at all... Quote
Veegs Posted December 18, 2015 Author Posted December 18, 2015 I think it helps in this case to be in a smaller/slower market or lower monetary demographic? Or maybe just luck. For those in the big(ger) cities you do probably have more kijiji cash in hand flip options so maybe it all evens out? Any BPers in London, ON? Still seeing some store stock at a few of sets I want. I'll be there over the holidays and if you leave any on the shelves I'll force myself to 'swoop' them. 2 Quote
Zelgazra Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Did anyone snap a pic of the discounted Poes X-Wing with price tag? I'd like to go try to price-match but without pictures of that one I might struggle to convince them. I guess a store location that had them on sale might work as well, as I could ask them to check against that store. Any help appreciated. Quote

I tried to price match some stuff at a location that had no sales and was told that since it's a "managers sale" they don't price match other stores. YMMV obviously though. Quote

seapotato Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Oh would love to get a first order transporter at that price. I really only want it for the phasma figure. Quote

I really only want it for the phasma figure. another CT is selling the POE X-Wing for $62.99 and First Order Transporter for $69.99. Tie Fighter for $56.90. I was able to get the higher price store to price match the lower price store. I bought the transporter for part out too. POE will be sold as a set. Keeping one of each for myself.

Gray2010 Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 So, do you guys think there will be more at CT on Boxing Day? John Quote

John Last year I recall they did 20-30% discounts (like now) and then pulled stock that didn't sell. Obviously I hope we get 50% off, but I'd be pretty happy with another 20x the point even again, and use that on sale sets. Another gift card promo is possible, too. There was a $20 a couple weeks ago, and the $50 on Thursday. Another one for Boxing Day would be pretty awesome. Quote
gravtation Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) Hope so.. need to refill, know a few CT that still have many good sets on shelf. wasn't sure about the Imperial Destroyer like Tacsniper told me to buy .. well bought 5 , 4 sold for 180$ each already .. need to get more .. bought 6 at-at : 2 sold 150$ each, keeping all other at-at for more $$$. To me At-At is way better to ship than the big Imperial, shipping is a killer for that set ! Weird how so many people are happy with the price I ask on my adds come pay and are wonderful and thanks me for saving their christmas present, and so many emails that I'm an A$$hole stating that I'm stealing poor people with my asking price ! Well I can't be loved by everyone I guess! One lady asked me to make a good action by selling her an At-At at 100$ , told her I'd do better than that : "I work for the CF I've done my part already helping everyone, are you able to tell so? ! " Rude, Rough, but fair enough.. don't judge someone when you don't know about their history ! Edited December 20, 2015 by gravtation 1 Quote

Canadian Tire stores are individually owned and operated so it really is YMMV. Quote

MOSKAL Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 Quick question If I show my receipt from CT will Toy R Us or Walmart price match? I pretty much cleared out what was left in all of west Ottawa today. Quote

If they is no proof that it is that particular set on the invoice.. it will be hard! but yes they will 1 Quote
