Mirkwood Elf was a highly sought after TRU exclusive. Some of the other ones can only be found at Target in their seasonal aisles for a very limited time. The Lego Store usually is not the best place for polybags, in my experience.

To echo this, I have never seen a polybag set like the ones mentioned in the LEGO store. I've seen polybags of various themes at TRU, maybe once at Target (not any LOTR or Castle ones, I believe). So your best bet is TRU.

Walmart has had them at Holiday times too. I"ve seen them there at Easter and Christmas. They aren't exclusives but they have been there.

Our Walmarts have them all the time.

Our TRU has a bunch, but they are mostly City and some random Star Wars.

In my only LEGO store experience, there was not a single polybag to be found :?
I found the last one to be somewhat disenheartening, as I expected the LEGO store of all places to have polybags. But that's the way it usually is, or so I am told.
