The moral is don't wait until the absolute last minute on something that is a few months old? lol... So what is the moral about how to guess when it's before the last minute? :p lol point taken. But I had heard about the Zombies set being a limited run right from the get-go, and considering that is...

I managed to snag one from S@H back in October just before the double VIP points promo. I was worried about not being able to pick one up before it was discontinued, so I kept checking its availability. It finally came up as 'expected ship date November 22', so I raced to my local store for 'shop &a...

These will be awesome little stocking stuffers for my nieces. Thanks for posting this!

so is the pick a brick box parts of your choosing?? like could i fill it with 1x2 and 2x2 tiles? lol yes, you can fill your box with anything available in your local store's PaB wall. The good thing about the boxes (as opposed to the regular cups) is it's square shape. If I remember correctly, it's...

My experience with Canadian TRU and polybags is that they introduce it as a promo. Then they seem to disappear, than a month later there will be piles of them for sale. Currently my Toys R Us has tonnes of Ghost Clock polybags. I've noticed this too! Hopefully this trend will continue as I'm sure t...

The third LEGO Brand store opening in the GTA will be located at Yorkdale mall! To be honest, I'm quite surprised this wasn't chosen as the first location in Toronto, considering its location (a lot more central than Sherway Gardens in the west end of the GTA), and the massive volume of sales and tr...

Now we're talking. I actually really like all of them, except for the policeman. I mean, his printing is nice, and the hat details are nice, but do we really need another policeman?! And there also seems to be quite a few new pieces, but please school me if I'm wrong. Robot head, cyclops head, tarot...

Good eye! I totally missed that while looking at those photos. I'm glad they found a clever use for those parts!

The minifig in that free Chima set looks pretty sweet!

The TRU at Markville Shopping Center in Markham, ON, has all the Hobbit sets, as well as a few of those smaller Creator sets pictured above, and the Galaxy Squad Bug Obliterator set. They also had the 10656 My First LEGO Princess set, and 10661 My First LEGO Fire Station set. Both are very cool sets...

No no, the problem is stealing. Just because something might be easy to steal doesn't mean it's okay to do so.

The customer is king - that should be the mantra of every company... sadly it isn't anymore. While I understand exactly what you mean, I think you could've worded it better. While yes, companies should make their customers their top priority, they should never feel obligated to bend over backwards ...

I added the Star Wars Advent Calendar to my shopping cart to see if the discount would apply, and like everyone else, it didn't. I did, however, notice that it says."You will earn 99 VIP points on this order". Is there a secret double VIP points offer going on?! (Canadian MSRP is $49.99)

It's possible that a Plum Points membership will also qualify. I received the email as well, and I only have a Plum Points membership, and not an iRewards membership. If that's the case, a Plum Points membership is free, and takes like 5 seconds to sign up, making this a pretty good deal. It's worth...

I'd like to reciprocate that +1 for Sadowsk1. Awesome communication and fast shipping. Thanks again!

Well in the fine print that Legobrandon quoted in his initial post, it does say, "Offer may change or end at any time without notice". And that's exactly what happened. Yeah, I know it sucks, but they're well within their right to change the terms of the promo because of that little discla...

^ Considering that Black Friday is on the 23rd, I'm pretty sure this a Black Friday sale. It's right on par with the other sales they have throughout the year.

Just sayin'.

I'm looking at that flyer right now...just wondering is it specifically THOSE Creator sets on sale (the ones shown in the flyer), or is it ALL Creator sets? If it is THOSE specific sets in the flyer, I can see why they did it...TRU has a lot of the big time exclusives on their site again...stuff li...
