Based on the gum-chewing, sweatpants wearing guy taking stacks of pirates chess, doctor who and ToA to the front register, I would venture to say my closest store had no limits. The guys with 2 or 3 stacks of 12 pirate chess would be another clue. Sometimes I like the other reseller unfriendly B&M nearby

Like with life - No one ever said that LEGO investing was fair.

Fair would be if they only let him get one snowglobe.

That's what my store did (1 Globe per person and limit 5 per set).  I was only trying to get 3...but clearly some people frequent the stores enough and get a pass (some people on here).  I live too far away to go more than every month or so.

So I hit my second local Lego store.  Downtown Disney.  Pretty crowded, but most stuff purchased was pretty random.  Most stuff for Miguelito.  A few EV and SC's being purchased by what looked to be AFOLs, but not sure.  They were wearing sweatpants though.

The Temple of Airjitzu - No more on the shelf.  From what I was told, a few left in back, but the half off deal at this downtown disney location is OVER.  Supposedly was a temporary thing and ended last Sunday.  I got my fill, I hope others managed to get in on it while it lasted.  I really hope it goes bye bye as I went pretty deep with the half off.

My LEGO store limited to 2 snow globe's per VIP card. Picked up a mixer at $119 and some Ecto-1's at $39.99.

Store had 1 EV left at $200, 0 SC, 0 Wall-E, 0 Mazes (which I was trying to get for xmas present)

Lego store haul

Everyhing was 50% off except Ecto-1 which was 20%. Two snow globes but it didn't look like I would hayve been limited if I bought more. Chess set just for the pieces and minifigures so at 50% off I bit. The green arrow poly was free when I walked into a GameStop and asked for one. I was buying games at the same time so who knows if they would have given it to me if I hadn't. Pet shop was gone in seconds and no Wall-E. I stared at Fairground mixer for a long time but let that go in favor of more 50% off sets.

edit: Also, I had over 200 reward points to spend so my only out of pocket was just over $10.

Sandcrawlers, maze, ecto1 avail in lego stores socal, some got walle, i mean downtown Disney lego store

 

I saw Sandcrawlers, but not marked at a discount price.  This store had several mistakes though and I kept getting the annoying look when I had them scan items that weren't marked on-sale, when they actually rang up as so.

You sure?  In OKC, it was 30% off.  We usually have the same prices as Dallas.

Yes - had about 10 in the middle of the store (not on the wall)... thought about getting one but decided against it since we already have one.

Edit: Had it been 30% off we would have pulled the trigger.
