What weird retail stores/websites do you find/buy legos? Obviously everyone know the typical places to look for in the U.S. I'm mostly wondering if there are any local places that I haven't thought to look for deal.

Well asking for local is relative to where you live. Might help to give your general location!

As for websites, search the forums as a lot of people have mentioned various sites that sell lego

I live in central Carolina. I started the thread to be useful not only to myself but to others. Feel free to add (chain) stores that you shop or places people might not think to look for legos.

For example TJ MAXX, Marshalls and Ross frequently have current or EOL legos below MSPR.

Those are good places. I also would add Tuesday Morning to the list. Some chains of stores are regional; those are the stores I would be checking first before the national chains because better deals are to be had.

Tuesday Morning is absolutely amazing. I don't know if anyone mentioned it yet but google mom and pop toy stores around you. I know this one store around me where I can still get series two minifigures if I wanted too hah.
