Finally pulled the trigger and picked up The Lonely Mountain at Meijer.  Between the 25% off, an additional 10% off for mPerks and a $5.00 coupon that stacked, it came to $83.  I have been lukewarm at best regarding this set, but at that price, I decided to roll the dice and see how it goes.

42 used bionicle sets in the original containers off Craigslist for $25. Not really into them,but at that price I dont think you can not make some money. Second time buying good deal from the same lady.

I got a hulkbuster smash for $18.99 at tru by price matching target and using a $5 reward that's been sitting for awhile :P

 

It should be doable this week, since it's in the ad this week and you don't have rely on price matching it online (currently OOS).

For me alotta times if it's just in stock for store pickup they don't mind and price match it, but it can be ymmv I suppose. Since it's in this weeks ad like you said that should definitely be enough, especially if you have the actual ad with you.

So my family made a trip to the Lego store for the last day of double points, and I had a little birthday money left to spend on something for the personal collection.  I couldn't decide between the Simpsons House and Slave I.  I didn't have enough for either, but my wife being nice and overlooking the extra cost.  After much deliberation I decide on the Simpsons House since it's older and I'll have more time to buy Slave I sometime in the future.  I'm at the register to purchase it and the check out guy and I are chatting about buying this set over the other.  My wife chimes in - and says some something magical, "Oh heck, it's the last day for double points, why don't you just get them both."  WHHHAAATTT???!!!

  It wasn't a trick, it wasn't a test of good husband decision making - she was honestly telling me to get both sets!  This was on top of the fact that a week earlier she had secretly worked out a Bday gift surprise with my parents and her parents and got me the Death Star!  So, the Death Star has literally been finished less than 24 hours and she rocks it out with giving me the go ahead on Simpsons and Slave I.  Best week ever.  Best wife ever.

That is really awesome. That was super rad of your wife. Happy birthday by the way!

Happy Birthday! Just remember there is a "hidden cost"

Update: My wife just came home and told me she is buying my oldest a hamster for her birthday...and that she found a really nice dress for Easter that was "on sale."  Oh well, at least I have Lego.  I still claim it as a win.  :)

got the barnes and noble 20% off coupon to work by purchasing a piece of candy along with the lego.

in this case i got another (the last on the shelf finally) fallingwater - #11 for me- my lucky number so that's enough.

after the 10% off membership, 20% off coupon (which also counted toward chocolate), and a 15% off raise card, came out to  $61.19 before tax.

time for the um neighbor getting married down stairs to open a bn account.

Last week I ordered another 5x Sea Cows, 5x Pet Shops and 5x Red 5 X-Wings from LEGO Shop at Home (2xVIP) that showed delayed shipping for several weeks but, they all arrived this morning!
