massakassa Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Canadian Tire Gift card $100 for $90 http://www.ebay.ca/itm/100-Canadian-Tire-Gift-Card-for-90-/191736367924?_trkparms=%26rpp_cid%3D55e5fcbee4b0b1f46bcfb469%26rpp_icid%3D567b0adfe4b006bf4394095f 1 Quote
Zelgazra Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 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. Quote

Zelgazra Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) 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.

seapotato Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 I'm thinking about the gc too since I have a $15 off coupon on ebay too. But maybe no lego left lol 1 Quote

Zender Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Anyone check out CT if they had further clearance prices? Quote
peenutz Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 No additional discounts in the lower mainland stores I've been to. Quote
gravtation Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 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 Quote
Gray2010 Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 the only set left is the Brick Bounty at my local Ct. Quote
tacsniper Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 No further discount to what was already reported Quote
Zelgazra Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 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! Quote
seapotato Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 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 ? Quote
Zelgazra Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 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! Quote

Zelgazra Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 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. Quote

seapotato Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Oh! I thought the gift card was in CAD! Quote

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. Quote

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! Quote
