Enough to get my credit card fraud department to call.  Always a good day when that happens :)  You'd think they'd have my buying patterns down by now.

Found a lone mixels black series 1 today. Wasn't gonna spend anymore money on toys but couldn't leave it lol.

Wow, where did you find that?  That's been MIA for a year now.  I wouldn't leave any Series 1 Mixel behind.  :)

Market Street?

Yep, nicely done.  I won't know until it gets here whether it's in there.  I see (in other pics) a couple of the windows.  I figure 35 lbs at $225 isn't a bad buy in.  I'm either lucky and it's in there or I can cherry pick and then get rid of the bulk and make my money back.  I don't feel like I can lose on this one.

Was that baseplate sitting right up on the top like that?

Yep.  That's the photo of the lot from Goodwill.  I haven't received it yet.  That's the only clue I have that Market Street might be in there.

My last order of Mystery Machines arrived.   Should be a healthy ROI set (long-term or even maybe XMAS flip) so no worries.  Just wish the box was smaller (like the Batman Riddler Chase set which is the same MSRP) instead of the Creator Treehouse and MF Werewolf size.  I assume Lego needed to use a larger box for marketing purposes to justify the $30 price tag since it's a non-Batman set.

75035 Kashyyyk Troopers $9.00 (Wal-Mart)
75036 Utapau Troopers $9.00 (Wal-Mart)
70223 Icebite's Claw Driller $35.00 (Wal-Mart)
31021 Furry Creatures $9.97 (Target)
41093 Heartlake Hair Salon $22.78 (Target)
30314 Go-Kart
30315 Space Utility Vehicle

Still slim pickings at Wal-Mart aside from those three sets I picked up. There were some other stuff but majority are small sets I already purchased and only a couple dollars off which would have helped the first time around but not for seconds. A few big ones were on sale but again the percentages just simply not deep at all (this last Police Station was marked down to $99 from the raised 'retail' of $119). Whatever. Well I was debating on whether to get those two battlepacks in the first place to be honest. Utapau Troopers are great minifigures while Kashyyyk Troopers had better pieces (for me anyway) so the savings helped. Icebite's Claw Driller is one set I wanted for the bodacious 'big bear' mech and I love those bears! Haha.

My best find was the Furry Creatures for half off at Target which seems to have been a printed shelf label mistake because when I went to scan the set, it came up at regular retail so I got an employee's attention about it and showed him the label. Well he did a scan check himself with those PDA gadgets, did a little head scratch, thanked me for pointing out the error, and still let me buy the set at the incorrect price. Nice.
