I love the Walmart in Zanesville. They have managed to make it to another Christmas clearance with Space Police at MSRP :D The boxes have been smashed and crushed, and yet they still survive! haha! the Madera Walmart has been clinging to a Prince of persia set for three years at full MSRP. We shoul...

We got two recycling trucks @ $15 , 2 Kai's blade cycles @ $7 , and several ghost trains at $54. We found one sealed CMF pouch for a dollar. We asked the inventory checker to scan to see how many they *should* have.. they said 45. Nothing brings a family together like scouring the hurricaned toy sec...

I think the 3 non smiley faces are not being made anymore, based on what I'm seeing show up at Target (I could be wrong). All I've seen is basic smiley faces, and I noticed that the clear instructional tag on the box is different that the first run of these heads.

sigh... today I found the alphabet and the numbers Duplo sets for my little one. They weren't scanning right at the checkout; more like 50% off normal price, despite the yellow discount sticker showing a lower clearance price. . I had to escalate to the manager that the 'additional 50% off clearance...

for you central California folks, did anyone visit the Fresno and/or Atwater stores? Last year I swung by the Atwater store and it was quite the honey hole.. ended up with 2 shopping carts full of discounts.

My Kmart was a disappointment. Most of the Lego sets that *were* on clearance last week not only were taken off clearance, but increased to the ToysRUs pricing model. For instance, the forbidden forest was down to $5 at the last clearance sale now was a robust $13.50 !! The only sets I scanned that ...

silvashado wrote:So I went back to the two KMarts near me and went through and scanned sets. At one, I found 3 Alien Motherships for $22.50 and the Tripod for $7.50. They didn't have much stock, but there were themes we didn't try since we weren't interested.

Where in CA is this store?

Did you physically scan them? If they had the yellow clearance sticker, then they should be half off that price... so the QAR should be $45. I was at Saugus,MA Big K this morning (Boston area). Nothing in the 50% off clearance. They had a couple clearance-marked Queen Anne's Revenges at $90 and a Du...

I may have to take a trip to k-mart tomorrow, over an hour drive to the closest, but I cant pass up a deal! I use the Kmart website to check local inventory. it isn't 100% accurate, but in my experience, its been around 85% accurate. If a store shows having one or two of something you like, call ah...

Strictly.Rollers wrote:So the sale prices are still not showing up on their sites? I went to search and I found some listed but when I clicked on the next page the all reverted back to regular price.

Generally, the 'Brick & Mortar' store prices are different than online prices.

Did you scan the sets individually? I've been to a few Kmarts where they have not updated the shelf tags or stickers in months, but I scanned the items, they reflected the sales/clearance price. Unlike Walmart, if one Kmart has an item on clearance, the generally all have the item on clearance. I kn...

I spotted Hogwarts Castle (the big one), as well as Freeing Dobby in the clearance section. Hogwarts was under $50; Dobby were $4 apiece. I got one Bounty Hunter Pursuit for under $20. My Kmart had several of the Yoda Clocks leftover from Christmas, which -should- be eligible for the sale, making th...

I noticed that Goodwill's online auction site seems to be listing more Lego these days.

I stopped by 2 more Walmarts today. These days my travel plans revolve around how many Walmarts are on the way. Each Walmart = 30mins more in travel time. :lol: The first one in Rancho Cordova was awesome. There was a lot f scratch and dent items scattered about, but there was a friendly and compete...

interesting.. those three Harry Potter sets should be clearanced, along with the non-boat PotC and all of last years Cars sets. Stopped by my local Wal-Mart. The ONLY thing I found on sale was the XXL box for $15. They only had one. Here are 9 photos of the LEGO section: http://brickupdate.com/lego-...

I also want to mentioned that the first one had a handful of the PQ 'cursed cobra statue', but at almost full price. I have noticed that if Walmart gets an older set that was discontinued awhile back, it gets put back on the shelf at full MSRP. I saw some PoP sets like that during the holidays too. ...

I visited three walmarts this afternoon: First one had a healthy selection, including: 7931 - T6 Jedi Shuttle $30 8677 - Ultimate Build Mater $15 5766 - Log Cabin $15 (x2) 7498 - Police Station $49 7288 - Mobile Police Unit $21 3368 - Space Center $35 Marina - $25 Knight Bus $17 Hagrids Hut $19 And ...

Sounds like someone stumbled upon Target salvage. :-D :) Of all places to go :???: , I tried my luck at Goodwill today :think: . I found 2504 Spinjutsu Dojo (373pcs, $49msrp) priced at $15. :-) Although I'm not much of a Ninjago fan, I thought it was a fair price to pay for mocfodder. I was only som...

A Target that I was aware of had a shelving unit full of the Portal of Atlantis set at 50% for weeks; I was hoping for 70%. Two days after I last checked, the entire stash up and disappeared. When I asked an associate if he knew what happened to them, I received a furtive 'They're gone'. When I pres...

Our Walmart moved clearance toys to the garden section. The normal Lego aisle has been reset, but no product has arrived. The 'clearance' Lego are not really priced to move.. a crate of U.B. Maters at 29.96 each. A box of series 5 at 2.97 each. some Potter sets at $10 off MSRP.. and a handful of oth...
