Seriously, if you don't want in on these deals don't bother to read the thread. Gift card deals are some of the best ways to get discounted LEGO in this market. If you have better deals, go ahead and post them. We'd love to see what you have to share with the community. I rarely find deals so I'm very grateful when others share, especially when it comes to gift cards.

Separate threads for GhostDad chats have been suggested in the past too.

Here is a list of discounted gc on eBay (even better when you have 8% Ebay bucks promo) $100 TRU for $85 (online) $100 BRU for $85 (online) $100 TRU for $85 (physical, free shipping) $100 Barnes Nobles for $88 (physical, free shipping) There are other gift cards too (gas, restaurants, etc) http://www.ebay.com/rpp/gift-cards/Gift-Card-Promotions-March?&_pgn=2

Parted out, Lex Luthor's hair brings in at least $15.

Seriously, a completely separate thread for gift card chat would be great...

Seriously needs a comma...

Looks like $120 more than new to me.

Discounted GC + eBay bucks + TRUTH is a killer combo. Thanks to everyone who helped spend my money again this month.

Do we need a "How to get free #$%# at Gamestop" thread?

This is why you check the Walmart clearance area a few aisles down from the Lego aisle. I wish I could say I got all of these on sale (just the B-wings and walker at $50 each), but given that these sets are all EOL and most have already appreciated nicely I had no problem pulling the trigger on them. Sets like the Phantom, the Droid tank and the T-16 all went EOL earlier than expected so I don't foresee a problem moving these quickly and very profitably. Funnily enough, I only stopped in at this Walmart because it was on the way from the Staples I went to to buy a box to ship a Star Destroyer, and a TRU that I was heading to to get the discounted Fortress Smash sets plus some batmobile polybags. And even when I went in, I almost missed these as they were in a different spot than the usual clearance area. Looks like somebody found a misplaced box or three in the warehouse. Picture doesn't show it but there are 2 bwings and 4 laketowns, just 1 wolfman.

Oooo... just like the old daily deals but with #moretumbleweed.

After multiple giftcard inceptions, my last TRU cards from ebay were bought at a 35% discount. Target and ebay might be colluding to bring TRU down, or it can all be in my head...

...and sometimes a touch of BS.

Just eBay branded gift cards are excluded. All other gift cards listed in the Gift Cards & Coupons category should earn the 8% eBay bucks if you are eligible for the promotion.

I believe it was sarcasm LEGO can reject something and then just say they had something similar in the works. It's possible they do of course, but hard to know for sure.

Try contacting the buyer and explain the reason for the refund. Also point out that you already ship the item. Then ask him to reverse his feedback.

Hi fellow Lego enthusiasts! My name is Travis I'm from Western Australia and I have played with Lego since I was 2, both my kids play with Lego even my dog plays with Lego.. (not in a good way though) I have recently been working on a Working Elevator (I work on real elevators too) I have got it working really well, it works almost the same as a real elevator, I just recently got the doors to open and close electrically which I was really happy about it took me ages! Im also working on an escalator (which is proving difficult) All of my mocs use the power function motors and I'm trying to find out if anyone has been able to use the mindstorm ev3 set to program the power function motors to do certain tasks, I dont want to change from the power function motors, any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! and happy building Trav a quick vid of my elevator:) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xpr_q4WQQ_4

Bought with blood, sweat, and tears

Tell that to the people who bought the DeLorean for $28 a piece I guess it depends on how you define poor performance

Ooops!

Sweet mech and 3 minifigs for under $15 = can't loose. Yup, but I could not win either

Amazon.de Technic 24hr Race car : $87 ea if u buy 3

Except that this ISN'T the fruitcake thread Where's that guy with the mop again?

My daughter and I finished up the Friends Jungle Rescue Base that we picked up for $15 at Wal Mart. I have to say...it was a cool little set with the zip line, animals, and details in the cabin. Best Friends set we've built...but she hasn't done the mall or hotel yet.

With the May the 4th figure, Lego must have wanted to add to the disappointment of the UCS Hoth release. Geez, this may be the first May the 4th where I don't buy any Star Wars from shop at home. A hermit Luke minifig from Ep 7 with exclusive printing would have been a great promo. We likely won't see a Luke minfig from Ep. 8 until the Force Friday release of sets in late 2017.

$84 F40 and $60 Bike Shops from TRU arrived minty

Now this is what I class as a true UCS Assault on Hoth ...

Coming soon, the new Daily Deals...

I tried, but he didn't know what a comma was. This was more appropriate.

It's a $20-$30 polybag. If free, you are doing fine

It's scary how much I love this set every time I look at it...

I'll see what it's like today. I've done zero scouting this week, so I have low expectations. I did get my rewards restored from my Batcave cancellation, so I now have 2 months worth to unload. I was hoping I could put together enough Easter items to spend all of my rewards. Of course, whatever TRU Support's escalation process is didn't work and I had to call them back after a week. Some way, some how, the CSR chatted with someone in that department and had them issued on the fly. She gave me a new number on the phone and I tested it while she was on the line. Can't wait to see the cashier's look on their face when I hand over a written down number for my restored rewards.

giftcardmall is having their share of 15% off TRU GCs too on ebay

At $15 and below, they are actually decent birthday / Christmas / Easter presents

Wouldn't that ruin the surprise...?

There is already new superman and lex, there will be no more xmen. Minifigs = win

... or the Caterham Seven. That thing looks sweeeeet.

Lex Power Armor deja vu

Thanks to your post I ordered a PPS Sunday for $33 after points and coupons and it arrived today. I finished the first 3 of 6 numbered bags and they realy did give this $60 MSRP set the UCS treatment. The single instruction book (cardboard backed to keep it neat) is done realy well, bound book orientation so it doesn't flop closed. It is printed on light blue paper which I find makes it easier to see the pieces. The printed sails also come cardboard backed to keep them flat and are in their own package. There are NO stickers and some neat new printed elements, and a green apple! So far the build is pretty straight forward, fun and fast paced. Will post a pic tomorrow when it is complete. No clue how this set will do but it may be the poor man's Sea Cow or a good substitute to popping those seals on a MISB set.

Actually found a Silver Centurion today.

I built the milano today. Really enjoyed it.

Took my son to visit our local legoland today, walked into the star wars shop and to my disbelief they had 2 x Red5 and 2 x DS sitting in their stock room!!!! Couldn't believe it!! Needless to say, they aren't sitting in there anymore!!!
