Shortbus311 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 How certain are we that the dickens promo will not be included with sale items on Black Friday??Black Friday is a week away. The Dickens promo will not last that long. Expect the ice skating set to be the promo for Black Friday. Quote
fourkidsbuilding Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Dickens should only last this weekend... Quote

Black Friday is a week away. The Dickens promo will not last that long. Expect the ice skating set to be the promo for Black Friday. Dickens is only live Saturday and Sunday then returns BF to CM. There is plenty of them. The stores get partial allotment of the overall total then receive more for the long weekend. Online may run out early next weekend but they will have them. 1 1 Quote

But that is definitely different than last year and the year before. The VIP promo wasn't offered on Black Friday in 2019 or 2018.. Quote

hockeyweasel Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 It is not different from last year.. I got sets on VIP weekend with the Christmas tree and then on BF weekend I was getting them with sets on Thursday and Friday but they ran out either Friday evening or early Saturday. Quote

It's been that way at least 4 years with the preview. Quote

What the h***?? Guess I'll have to add a $5 CMF figure. Hmm, given the supposed rules about clearance items not qualifying for the promos, I’ll be aiming for lowest cost item available if needed to break $200.00 Quote
hockeyweasel Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Raven correct me if I'm wrong, but the difference the last year or two is that the second seasonal GWP has been released the first week or two of December rather than it being Bricktober and BF and we've been getting something stupid like the 24-in-1 advent, or mindstorms in October.

And the little Surfer Van was a BF one day promo. Little Batmobile with big one too. Was a good promo year. There is some other old promos this year as well in limited quantity. Don't remember them all but BB8 is one with SW purchases and Olaf Sleigh thing is back with Frozen. Edited November 21, 2020 by ravenb99 1 Quote
Shortbus311 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 It's been that way at least 4 years with the preview. Had to go back and look at last years calendar. Yep, I was wrong... getting forgetful in my old age. 1 Quote
carini26 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 I believe Xmas tree production #s last year were a fraction of the mini gingerbread houses. The trees didn’t last too long and shot up in value almost immediately. Sounds like Dickens might be around for awhile. Quote

Phil B Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 If this GWP doesn't make it above $50 on Amazon, would that make it a Turdicken? 2 1 Quote
