They have the polys behind the front desk at my store.  If the stickler wasn't there, I might ask to buy the A-Wing pilots outright.  The wife wouldn't let me go back last night after we got back from soccer.

So I'd say you were "block blocked" :)

Four freebies?
You mean the gift card?
What're the other 2 freebies?

GC, friends bowling alley poly, star wars a-wing poly, bricktober week 4. Probably should have just bought the friends poly like sfcommando. No good deals on friends sets that were near $30 at my store.

friends poly includes purchase of friends, disney, elves, or juniors so there may be some deals to be had.  especially for gifts.

Doesn't say that on my card.

Yep, you got lucky.

Yeah, in the past those types of buy xxx.xx get xx.xx in gift cards had a specific date in the future only that they could be used.

After magic my race truck is $22. If I had the 10% my race truck would've been $11...now I want to return it and wait for next Thursday.


Your math seems a little fuzzy, 10% of $22 is $2.2, how would you bring it down to $11?

Unusually busy at my TRU build event today .  Got there right at noon ,  and we were 43rd in line .  They handed out numbered tickets saying they had Frankensteins for only the first 50 kids... Said others would get " a little figure with a car". Wondered what that was ,  but didn't stick around to see .

$40 (race truck) + $60 (deep sea explore) x 10% = $90 + tax - $25 GC - $60 (deep sea if sell at cost) = $11 for race truck

vs

$100 + tax - $25 GC - $60 (deep sea if sell at cost) = $22 for race truck

I feel another "how do you account for your purchase discounts" discussions coming up.

How do you plan to sell the sea base set for $60 and net $60? You would have to account for fees and shipping.

Craigslist, got a buyer coming to pick it up tonight for $60 cash. There are also a few sold for $97+ on ebay.

Official TRU promotion cards that say "valid beginning 12/1" I got on Sat and checked out with store manager worked fine for purchase last night (Sun) online. 3 cards total.

No one whispered wait 6hrs to me.

Got 1 more today since I'm away Thurs. Maybe their system will wise up? Don't see what is unique about card unless they begin tracking a specific block of gift card numbers.
