hendrikdejager Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I wanted to like this, but I am out of likes today. Well done! Was it from Marktplaats.nl? Yes it was, a thrift shop apparently. Quote

LegoBuildingMama Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I popped into Wal-Mart where I've been watching some older sets for discounts. They have an entire 2-sided isle of legos marked down and an additional 50% off the marked price. I spent $2000, but scored 10 Lego 9398 for $45 each; 3 Millenium Falcons for $32 each; SW Jek 14 $15 each; and 5 Goblin Attack Sets for $22 each. I also grabbed a bunch of smaller sets for kid's Christmas gifts. I broke the bank, but I'm set for Christmas selling. The only set I left behind was TMNT Shell Raiser. I figure if they have to discount them when the new movie just came out than TMNT must be a loser. Now I have to bust the blow dryer to pull off the clearance stickers without damaging the sets. 9 Quote

LegoBuildingMama Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Thanks! I was shaking when I loaded the sets into 4 very full carts. Associates were taking Falcons fresh from the boxes and marking them with clearance stickers. I asked them to just just put them into my cart. I tried to leave as fast as I could because I felt like somebody was going to say they were kidding and hadn't meant to mark thing down. I never use my credit card, but I did for this one. I couldn't help myself. I do have a couple of Chima sets that could be a gamble, but they were just so cheap. 1 Quote

No More Monkeys Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 that's a nice haul. i didn't know walmart carried 9398 i wish walmart around me carried those sets ... Yeah, walmart app does not even have check stores button for this, and other big technics Quote
LegoBuildingMama Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I'll work on a pic - I'm trying to fit them into my garage right now. We've had 9398 and other large sets very randomly for the last couple of years. Has anyone else called/visited their Wal-Mart? If other stores have the same sale, I'm going shopping again tomorrow.

cardkid Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Did your store show the same prices on the walmart ap? I havent gone to any recently because the walmart ap shows prices that are not worth buying. Quote
