I am stealing Jaisonline's idea from last year! For each LIKE $***THIS***$ post gets I will donate 1 dollar! 1 like=1 dollar towards the schools raffle!

We've never had the salesperson aspect to the Daily Deals thread. Don't Delay, Act Now, supplies are running out.

So you bailed out? or are you still investing? it seems like you are making both claims simultaneously

Not all today, but

We are so very grateful to Ed, Jeff and the Brickpicker community for helping our little school - we are working hard, growing slowly, managing to provide amazing education and well rounded, thoughtful, students who will be our future. We are teaching them that its worth it to fight for what you believe in and to work hard doing it! So, thank you from my husband and I and from my two SPS students!

Oh? Trying to bribe your way onto the leaderboard then? ....Eh, what the heck.

Hello LEGO fans...Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. It's that time of year again. Time to raise money for my son Max's school, St. Paul School, in Burlington, NJ. After a very...VERY...successful first BRICKPICKER LEGO RAFFLE in which we raised over $62,000.00 for the school, a year has passed, and it’s time to raffle off some dynamic LEGO gifts for charity. The money we raised last year literally kept the school open...which is a great thing. It's a special school that once again was voted BEST Private School in Burlington County, NJ, by The Burlington County Times, along with numerous other awards, such as: CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE 2017 BRICKPICKER LEGO RAFFLE FOR ST. PAUL SCHOOL! Best Private School Best PreK-Nursery School Best Teacher Best Fundraiser Best Music Instruction Best Tutor Service (Junior National Honor Society) As I stated last year, St.Paul School (SPS) and its community are wonderful. People from all races and religions attend St. Paul School. Besides excelling in educating the children, the school does a tremendous amount of charity for local people in need. From food drives to helping out at local retirement homes, the children of St.Paul School are required to perform “service hours” that are designed to teach generosity, altruism and instill a hard-working, disciplined attitude. Excellence is expected and permeates through St. Paul School and the faculty and student body, so does a sense of goodness and frugalness. We make a little money go a long way. For example: All grade levels (Pre – K through 4) are scheduled for “Specials” each week...such as art, music, library, computers, and physical education St.Paul School is nationally accredited by “AdvancED” (the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement – NCA – CASI. SPS middle-school students have three periods of Spanish and are testing into Spanish II for High School. SPS provides more periods of physical education each week than is required by the State. SPS provides multiple extracurricular activities such as: LEGO Robotics Club, Science Club, Vocal Choir, Rosary Group, Tonal Chimes, Hand Bell Choir, Crafty Kids Club, Basketball (Boys/Girls), Indoor Soccer, Cheerleading, Yearbook Club, National Junior Honor Society (NJHS), Student Council, MATHCounts, STREAM (Science Technology Religion Engineering Art Math, Activity Tutorial Period (ATP for 5th-8th grades) But all is not wonderful though. As many of you know, many Catholic schools have a hard time making ends meet. Enrollments are down due to weak economic conditions throughout the world. Even superb schools like St. Paul School have a hard time keeping the doors open. While we did pick up 25 new students this past year to ease the financial burden, we will still be way short of breaking even; thus the need for the 2017 BrickPicker LEGO Raffle 2.0. This year’s version of the LEGO raffle will start with TEN awesome prizes.These include: PRIZE #1 BRICKPICKER MEMBER RAFFLE LOT: 21301 Birds (Salimr) Comic Con Throne of Ultron (echin313) Comic Con Dagobah Mini-Build (echin313) A mint 7144 Slave I (echin313) A mint 8001 Battle Droid (echin313) 10218 Pet Shop (exciter1) Rio Olympic Mascots set (Emvisawthatswho) 70816 Benny's Spaceship (Brickcrazyhouse) A special custom LEGO snow globe (Flanagan Bros Inc) PRIZE #2 BRICKPICKER MYSTERY RAFFLE LOT (OVER 5000 PIECES): A bundle of quality LEGO sets from multiple themes that will far exceed 5000 pieces! PRIZE #3: 10220 - VW Camper T1 Van 42056 - Porsche 911 GT3 RS PRIZE #4: 10227 - UCS B-Wing 75060 - UCS Slave I PRIZE #5: 10221 - UCS Super Star Destroyer PRIZE #6: $500 Amazon Gift Certificate PRIZE #7: 75159 - UCS Death Star OR 10188 Death Star PRIZE #8 CHOICE OF: 75827 - Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters OR 71040 - Disney Castle PRIZE #9 CHOICE OF: 10225 - UCS R2-D2 OR 10197 - Fire Brigade OR 10228 - Haunted House OR 10211 - Grand Emporium PRIZE #10: 10255 - Assembly Square 10251 - Brick Bank This year’s total prize value exceeds last year’s total by over $1000.00. Last year we had 11 raffle prizes and winners from around the world. From Vancouver, Canada to Reno, Nevada to Miami Beach, Florida to the Isle of Man, United Kingdom and everywhere in between, generous raffle participants were rewarded with awesome LEGO prizes. The 2017 BrickPicker LEGO Raffle 2.0 can be found here on the secure Rally.up.com site: CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE 2017 BRICKPICKER LEGO RAFFLE FOR ST. PAUL SCHOOL! Like last year, we will ship the prizes to anywhere across the globe. If there is an issue with shipping or prizes, a comparable prize and/or shipping method will be arranged with the winner. Last year, the LEGO BrickPicker Raffle worked very well. The Rallyup.com site is a first class, secure site that made this all possible. They also issued the school a big fat check. All raffle proceeds and donations benefit the school directly by bridging the gap between what tuition covers and actual educational costs. It also raises money to upgrade the school’s technology, keeping St. Paul School ahead of the academic curve with a dynamic curriculum. The prizes have been donated by Jeff and I, the St.Paul School PTA and by some very generous BrickPicker members. I am hoping, like last year, that more people will donate sets after the raffle begins. It was fun adding to the prizes last year. You never know what can pop up as a prize! On a personal note, I would like to thank every person who donated sets/money and/or bought tickets to last year’s LEGO BrickPicker Raffle. It saved a wonderful school and kept dozens of people employed and 175 kids with their friends and teachers. I don’t like asking, but will anyway...please help out again this year. Even buying one ticket can help and it gives you a chance to win some great prizes. Watching the raffle ticket total rise every day was an intense rush and extremely gratifying experience. It made me so proud to have started this site with my brother Jeff and made me realize there is still good in this world… The contest will end on February 7, 2017 at 11:59 PM. Winners will be notified by Rallyup.com. If you are a winner, please contact me on the site so we can confirm the prizes and shipping addresses. The Rallyup.com site works very well and is secure, so please feel confident in donating to the school and purchasing raffle tickets. All the money goes to St. Paul School, which is a 501(c)(3), and to Rallyup.com for running the raffle. I will make every effort to supply the winners with the appropriate prizes. If there are shipping issues, inventory issues or potential problems beyond my control, I will make sure the winners are awarded LEGO sets/gift cards comparable to the original prizes. Any questions, ideas or concerns, please reply below or PM Jeff or me... TICKETS AVAILABLE UNTIL: February 07, 2017 at 11:59 PM EST DRAWING DATE: February 08, 2017 at 12:00 PM EST Thanks again!

Ferris wheel : $159.9 @ walmart https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Creator-Expert-Ferris-Wheel/42104279

Yeah, same here. I skipped the entire 2016 seasonals range, but just now decided to collect the full 2017 range of these vignettes, provided all seasonals of 2017 are vignettes like these.

Marked down a few bucks further (here in Minnesota, anyways)...

Christmas break is in full swing. Just cracked this open.

Haha. I have to say, it's just that I'm a little excited about the lego Christmas sales, since everything is going at a really low price. I want people who aren't aware of deals going on to know immediately. Like today, Target has everything 20% off.

.....took me a minute!

Sam's Club has the girls junior Lego set on sale for $15. It's a nice easy set, no stickers, comes with a horse and it's own container to hold the bricks. Makes for a great starting set.

Oh God. Now I HAVE to go there. For the collection only, for the collection only, I'm broke, for the collection only...

Millennium Falcon $179.99 Both X-wings $94.99 GO GO GO!

I just roll in my CT-scanner .... I get some funny looks but the smooshing is a breeze.

Looks like they raided Heartlake Supermarket. Nice little set!

An oldie, but a goodie. Let's have a little fun. All wings, check in!

I hear ya, smooshing is a time commitment, unless you have a magic basket.

Any time I see the name of this set my brain reads it as Tiger Woods Island and I think WTF? for half a second.

60110 Fire Station for $49.97 at Costco

No idea what theme this is from but new 2017 chess set 40174 £45.99 seen at lego store

FWIW, my daughter is 8 and we started with some Cars Duplo when she was probably 2 or 3. Her interests with Lego have been mainly with Chima (she loves anything with animals) and most recently Minecraft. She has had one small Friends set and an Elves set (that had a fox in it). If a set has a fox or wolf or a dog that looks like a fox or wolf in it, she wants it. We have friends who have a 2 year old boy. We have a bin of Duplo for him to play with when he comes over. I think my daughter has as much fun or more than him when playing with the Duplo. So I guess my point is, don't assume you should skip the Duplo because it could be something she likes to come back to even when she is "too old" for it.

I believe they're individually numbered to 99 sets worldwide. I'm lining up now. Bad news is not every LEGO store will even receive one and you won't know until the store opens on January 1 so I might be wasting the next week and a half for nothing. Please note: The above is inaccurate as the set is not numbered or known to be limited in any way.

wait for after-christmas-clearance, something fun will likely turn up

I sold a Friends set to a mom for her son the other day and one of my co-worker's daughter is crazy about Ninjago. So I guess all Lego sets are gender neutral

But ... but ... but .... it's a checkers board too! That must be worth something, no? ;-)

Obi Interceptor 75138 (x6) at $12.81 each. Sam's Club. Haven't seen them at 50% off before in my neck of the woods.

Love that gif. And love the hang loose at the end.

Thank you Bricklink buyer, for filing a Non-Shipping Seller complaint against me, a full day *after* I've sent out your package (in a timely manner). I really appreciate you checking the order and looking at the tracking information provided and contacting me to ask me what's up before you involved Bricklink (oh wait, you did NONE of that).

This is our Daily Deals thread, for all deals. We appreciate links and store names when you post a deal, thanks. We have an automated posting for Amazon deals, yes, but are interested in deals from all retailers.

Last update. Recovery after cat attack is finished! Merry christmas to all of you crazy lego folks out there

For Priority Mail packages, simply opening up an insurance claim online (since they're automatically insured for $50 - $100) works wonders for getting them moving again. Sometimes the postal service just needs a little extra incentive. No idea if that works for 1st class or parcel select, if you haven't separately insured it. I've only had one 1st class or parcel select package lost in the past 10 years though. Seriously. People like to hate on the post office, but in my experience it delivers 99.999% of the time, and handles packages more gently than the private carriers.
