Rarely shop at TRU. I was wondering if there is a limit on what you can buy? Like poly bags. Was wondering if they would let me buy say 20 of the first order general. Get the 25 off the 100 dollars. Not sure if that's a "policy" or a "YMMV" any input would be great. Looking to go in the AM.

I've been "shot down" before. Had 10x41001 I think. "I'm sorry, we only sell to end users. You can buy 5." Or something like that. Only ever happened to me once.

Usually those stores have cozy relation with reseller. They don't like competition.

For the newbies.
If you haven't picked up a TRU card yet, any Saturday until Dec 17th would be the time to do it.
A very helpful TRU employee pointed out to me that the bonus 15% cannot be combined with TRUTH, but it can with TRUST. It's implied in the flyer.

Today would probably be the best day actually with the $25 GC coupon

and A-wing pilot poly

I'm here now. Was thinking that. They can't find the first order general but have good amount of a wing pilots. Wondering if I should pull the trigger and buy 20 of them...thoughts on a wing pilot?

[Thanos75]

Around me its the opposite. We have a ton of the Generals on the rack but no A-wing pilots.

[Lego Templar]

They won't let me buy 20 anyway so forget it. No deal! Lol...ill save it for another day.

74 in stock can't find any. Been here 30 minutes. They ordered it for me and waived shipping.

Manager is like "no I will not sell 20 of my promotional items to one seller" I was going to get smart but i held my tongue and was polite lol. Like it's coming out of his pocket $ is $ for the store and they have like 100s of the A pilot.

2 x Indominus Rex - $70 each 

They were nice to me since they had to price match the online promo. They pushed through TRUST and subtracted $25 after the price match negated the gift card coupon option.

They price matched both?  I was there today and they said they would only price match one IR.  So one at 109 and the other would be 40 percent off the 149 store price.  What did I miss here?

Yes they did, took 40% off $109.09. It's another YMMV instance.

Nice. The Awing pilot and the Cole minifigs stack naturally at the register. 2 free minifigs for $30

[donbee]

And the Cole rung up $6.99 instead of 7.99. And is 20% off.

I saw a 70909 Batcave Break-in at TRU today.  I didn't try buying... might have been denied... weren't these supposed to come out in 2017?

Also saw SuperHero Girls sets: 41230 Batgirl, and 41231 Harley Quinn to the Rescue (...so Harley Quinn is a Super Hero now?). That Batgirl set looks like money to me ?... but seeing how TRU is already selling them on eBay, I decided to pass.

The LEGO Batman Movie sets have been seen at Target since late last week.  Lots of buyers already.  The two DCSHG sets showed up on TRU's website (and eBay) this weekend.  In the DCSHG cartoon, all the girls are "heroes" including (Poison) Ivy and Harley Quinn.  *shrug*

No truth is good without a gift card

What are the Lego promos this week? I know about the bogo 40 for friends, city, ninjago and duplo but scanning sets from themes other than those and it shows the regular price but says Lego promo underneath.

Oh yeah, meh. Bunch of the D.C. superhero girls and batman movie sets out. Was debating the Harleyquin one since my daughter has been obsessed since watching the show. Kind of crazy that the Msrp for that set is $29.99 for 217 pieces.

[Alpinemaps]

I gotta think (hope) those DCSHG sets will go on sale at least once before Christmas.

If they remain under the DC theme, it's very likely.

LEGO Star Wars Sith Infiltrator (75096) - $66.49 - 30% off
LEGO Star Wars Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle (75104) - $83.99 - 30% off

called my store. same deal in store so no need to price match. should stack with promos and TRUTH tomorrow.

[exciter1]

I bought City: Utility Shuttles to go with the Sith Infiltrator, TRUST, $10 gift card, chicken suit guy, A-Wing pilot, discount gift card and I got the Star Wars scavenger hunt figures early. My son has a basketball game at 1pm.

The Stormtroopers are just in a baggie and a free poster.

[Kenxxx]

I'm confused about the promos lately... going to the store with my son after lunch... what coupons, etc should I be carrying with me?

Oh good. It's not the Sergeant. Just a storm trooper. I still have that market cornered.

Have you ever tried flipping a poster? It looks like Sometimes they sell well on eBay.
