Toys 'R' Us Sale!
For those that aren't aware, twice a year, Toys 'R' Us (TRU) has a buy 2, get 1 free sale and it's going on now! I, for one, wait just for these sales to get my goods.

Thank you for posting this.
Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
Great offer, and there's lots of choice on what to get. In the end I opted for three Drawbridge Defences.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
I don't like this sale. I always wind up with two sets I want and can never pick a 3rd.
But at any rate, I'm not going to be anywhere near a TRU for months...

This is exactly what I do and it works out to be a great way to help fund an otherwise expensive hobby.RichardAM wrote:http://www.bricklink.comAthos wrote:I don't like this sale. I always wind up with two sets I want and can never pick a 3rd.

Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
It definitely excludes Star Wars at my local store (also learned the hard way), but on the website, I have in my cart three of set 8038 (Battle Of Endor) and it shows the third one as free. Maybe it's a glitch on their site? I got nearly all the way through the checkout process and would have continued if I had the cash, but I spent it all today! So it looks like it'll work on the web.

Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
Can anyone confirm whether this sale has or has yet to start in Canada?

Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
Hmm... how do you know they do it twice a year? Do you know when the are usually scheduled, or is it random? The last TRU Lego sale I was lucky enough to run into was back in March (I think) and it was a "buy one, get 2nd one half price" or something like that.RotsiserMho wrote:For those that aren't aware, twice a year, Toys 'R' Us (TRU) has a buy 2, get 1 free sale and it's going on now!

Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
Yea, works out to around 30% off either way which brings the 10 dollar sets they jack up to 15 bucks back down to msrp which you can get any day at other retailers.domboy wrote:Hmm... how do you know they do it twice a year?

They jack the freakin impulse sets up to 7 bucks.
Its a good deal if you get some of the high dollar sets and have some addiional rewards coupons to throw at the sale.

Re: Toys 'R' Us Sale!
This has definitely turned into a sale you need to research. You can still get some really good deals with non-licensed themes but watch out for Indiana Jones. Some of these sets will only net you around a 10% savings overall from LEGO pricing. There should be better sales coming for those items.
I picked up some of the smaller sets myself, mainly for the minifigs and my savings came out to be around 23% per box using LEGO pricing as a base.
Do your research.
