Lego November Promo free pick a brick box question...

Post by sadowsk1 » Sun Nov 14, 2010 8:33 am

I am curious how large the pick a brick holiday box is. I know that they come free with a 75 dollar purchase at a brick and mortar store, but I'm curious how big it is and if anyone has a picture. I'd order online for free shipping otherwise I was thinking about making the drive to a Lego store about an hour away. If anyone can help out with this, I would appreciate it.

PaB box holds slightly more than the small cup usually used for PaB.

Box looks like this although different printing this year.

I got a box a few years ago. Are they still the size of a happy meal box?
I was able to pack a lot of pieces in it; much more than a regular PaB container.

I'd like to get another box this year, but the drive is about 4 hour per round trip.

Last year's box was probably half the size of a Happy Meal box.

Hihi. Does anyone know the policy on this one? Do you get a pick a brink box for every $75 you spend or do you just get one if you spend $75?

I paid for $200 worth of Lego over the weekend, the sales girl only gave me one pick a brick box.

Thanks for any input ))

I don't know for sure about limitation stipulations, but it would definitely at least be limited to one PaB box per purchase, I'd think. If you bought $75+, left, shopped around a bit, went back and spend the rest of the money, you'd most likely get a second one.

Depends on the store and the employee. I purchased just over $200.00 and received 3 PaB boxes. I am a regular customer though and the staff all know me. :D

Meaning they thought "he's just going to be back in here to buy another $75, so just give him the boxes now"? ;)

It's 1 box per $75. But it also depends on their math skill. Some do 1 per $100 to make it easy. I got 3 today for $190. I think they remebered me from BF. My brother inlaw got 2 when he puchased the UCS falcon last year.

I got the box after buying 7327 and got something like 460 parts. There could have been more, but as I finished my inner layer or 1x2s (lime), my parents began to get impatient. It contained 1x3 green bricks, 1x2 yellow bricks, 1x2 lime bricks, 100 1x1 trans red tiles (1 was a plate), some wheel axle bricks, some steering wheels, and more.
