At a local Walmart I was able to pick up 4-#7498 Police Stations for $40.00 each, 4-#4645 Harbor for $40.00 each and the best one was 4 of the #9474 The Battle of Helm's Deep for $45.00 each

Great find. My local walmart had the The Mines of Moria Set (9473) for just $43.00 last week and went quickly out-of-stock. They said they should get more in a few weeks. Now, I went back to Walmart and it was completely replaced with a different lego set, so I wonder if that store will carry it anytime soon.

Yesterday I went to Wal-Mart and they had a bunch of clearance stuff on tables outside in front of the store, but all the clearance Lego was full price so I didn't buy anything. Then last evening there was a sudden downpour and they couldn't get it all inside fast enough, so today they were selling a bunch of waterlogged items for 50% off. I got two Batman and Two Face sets and a Loki's cosmic cube escape.

LOL - d'oh! That's pretty sweet though to snag them. Were the instruction booklets just wrecked or were they safe?

The instructions were o.k. after they dried out but the stickers were mostly ruined.

Someone just went into their dark ages. I have no idea what I just hauled for $300. I got 20lbs of manuals, boxes and boxes of legos, and lego boxes. Pieces are smelly and dusty but did see Jabba's Barge Sail and the MTT.

Found a sealed nearly mint box, 1670 Trial Size LEGO system dated 1992. A whopping 26 pieces! It was at a Goodwill for 89 cents.

Yesterday I bought a Black Pearl for $55 off of Craigslist. For my son, for Christmas. I was happy.

Received my Aug 31st Lego store clearance order in the mail yesterday. Not impressed Fedex left the package on my front step when I live across from an elementary school... But everything is safely inside now.

5 x 40031 Bunny and Chick
1 x 7067 Jet-Copter Encounter

$84.94 CAD Retail for $24.52 shipped.

^^ Me too, I got 2 of the Jet-Copter Encounter sets from S@H for $32.00 CDN shipped (regular $49.99 each), delivered yesterday. No complaints there!

I also had a couple awesome scores off of Kijiji recently; 9516 Jabba's Palace (2012) and 9473 Mines of Moria for $125 CDN brand-new (still sealed!), regular $260 + tax.

I also got about 50lbs of Lego on a bulk Kijiji deal for $20! Sets that I've found so far that are mostly complete (and include all minifigs):

Jabba's Sail Barge (6210)
Republic Cruiser (7665)
Hoth Rebel Base (7666)
Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive Booster Ring (7661)
Imperial Landing Craft (7659)

And a lot of smaller Star Wars sets, as well as Indiana Jones, City, Mars MIssion, Spider-Man and a TON of train stuff. I was ridiculously pumped to nab this deal (especially since the Sail Barge has been on my most-wanted list for a long while now), not even going to complain that it will take me 3 years to sort and clean it all!

I won an ebay auction for Mines of Moria and Helms Deep, brand new for a final price of $142 + $15 shipping, all in all, a nice little discount!

Hopefully it's not a drop shipper. I'd stay away from any new in box LEGO on ebay that's lower than MSRP.

It looks to be shipping from NY, the sellers location, and via USPS not FedEx like they usually come when they come direct from LEGO.

Snow trooper army pack for $4.99
Rebel trooper army pack for $4.99

I got the Alien Mothership for $21.99 last week.

Pick your local microcenter.com and search for LEGO
