Informal poll:

Laugh react to my post to take the Amazon points on the backend, allowing you to use those points free for non business purchases as credit card rewards are not considered income thus not taxable. While allowing you to write off the extra 5% cost of the set purchased.

Confused react my post to receive the dopamine boost of the extra 5% off at purchase while getting to pay taxes on the extra profit netted from that 5% frontend discount.

I use the 5% points from Amazon cc to pay back the balance.  It is literally free money

Agree, but FYI, the Amazon 5% is tied to only the cost of the item and not total cost (i.e. excludes sales tax).  Hence 5% on front end, before sales tax is a slightly better deal.  Doesn’t account for convenience, etc

true , unless you live in a state that charges sales tax, then getting an amazon tax exempt account would make more sense. different strokes for different folks

There are entries that are either not being updated or removed when they are no available/prices change.

I did not go through the list thoroughly but some examples would be Mias Horse Trailer and the Whomping Willow from Target.

Target Hidden Side Ghost Train is another example.  The other sale prices are still there for the Hidden Side train, but not target.  It looks like Target changed the base price of the train to 25% off.

Not updating: Prices dropped @ BestBuy for some sets to more than 40% off, 41169 & 70418 are two examples.

They are right at the top of the page, updated around 7:20am

That's strange.  The prices aren't correct.  I guess Best Buy reduced them again after 7:20 AM this morning.

Ghost lab: $9.99 - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lego-hidden-side-j-b-s-ghost-lab-70418/6351874.p?skuId=6351874

Olaf: $7.99 - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lego-disney-frozen-ii-olaf-41169/6352652.p?skuId=6352652

Yes. And they are incorrect. That is why I said they have been marked down further. Just trying to help.

My mistake, the way I read it I thought you meant the feed wasn't updating at all.  No problem, I will fix it.

I made a few updates to how Best Buy was being updated. It should be grabbing the Clearance products properly now.  I also made a change to leave it as "in stock" even if the button was saying "Find a Store".  It may not be helpful for everyone, but for those that may be in range to get one, well good for you.

Why are all those Ghost Labs and Olafs still there :)?

Amazon price matched both

And that is an excuse??? I remember a day when there used to be arm sweeps

If you clear out the competitor, Amazon reverts back to the next lowest competitor price. Better to buy from Amazon and let best buy stagnate as long as possible.

I really enjoyed this link as I could visit it and new what had a NEWER price.  Is there a way to do that now with this feed? -  Or will that link below start working again for Sept?

 

 

I find this is more useful - " Dropped 2% on Aug 24 09:20 PM"

This -Last Updated: Sep 2 9:20 AM Is always "current" but I'm more interested in Changed or Added

Just to make this page more readable because of all the sales and who knows what will happen over the rest of the holiday season, this feed will only show products and locations of 30% off or greater

Hello,

This page is so helpful. I’m wondering if there a way to subscribe to this for text or email notification without having to constantly checking this page? I’m new to this site. Recently got into Lego sets as a hobby.

Hey, Jeff,

Wanted to see if this feed is updating.  At least on my end, it seems to have stagnated with many Target items displayed that have been OOS for awhile and Amazon prices that have since reverted back to higher prices or gone OOS as well.

Thanks!

Target is fixed, looking into the others.  I see a few Amazon and Kohls that haven't been removed
