What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

Longhamel,

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.  Don't like doing that as it clears all...but gotta do it I'm afraid.

Or try "private browsing" first to try.

You can also just clear cookies/cache for specific sites ... instructions are browser dependent.

Thanks Greg,

It worked!  Clearing  cache did it.  Tried cookies first to no avail, but after clearing cache I was able to place order.

Got another TOA and TLM

They don't do the right thing when their website loads background java script files. Browsers cache them for 30 days, so eventually it sorts itself out but there are tricks the developers can do to force the browser to update them when you issue a website update or for very important ones you can prevent the browser from caching them altogether.

Either way, they suck as they don't bother trying anything from what I've seen viewing the webpage source.

My 12 minty fresh Wall-E arrived.  I had no doubts about this being a winner, regardless of actually never seeing and holding one.  But wow, this is beautifully boxed, hefty (feels like a quality set), and it's of a beloved robot.  My son has never seen this movie, but LOVED the looks of it, so now I probably have one less to sell this Christmas.

Simply the smell and feel of the booklet should be enough to open one of them.

that's not clearance. someone must have returned them from an online purchase, so they mark it down to sell. they dont' typically sell those in stores do they?

 

I saw it once on the star wars release day. they mix it the star wars set. they have about 15-20 set on the shelf and it was gone the next day never come back.

Not sure if there were returns or older stock.  Nonetheless, I'm thrilled with the find.  All but one box is in excellent condition.  This was the same Walmart that I found Series 14 CMF for $1.00 apiece.

I had a good run at TRU today. I've been avoiding getting a new TRU Credit Card, but I gave in today. I got:

1 x Agents Ocean HQ (thought I would take a gamble on this, the timing seems perfect to purchase it)
1 x Hobbit Witch King Battle (an impulse purchase, the minifigures looked cool)
1 x Bricktober Hotel (these flip easy for $24ish)
1 x Bricktober Train Station (this was free w/ the $75 purchase)
3 x CMF14 (limited myself to 10 bags, smooshed out 2 x Tiger Lady and 1 x Cheerleader)

My total was $106. This included 15% for opening a new card, 20% off 1 item coupon, and $5 off coupon. My total is about the retail for the Ocean HQ, so I'm feeling good about it. If I flip the two bricktober sets, that will net me about $40.
