Investing in Lego can be fun and profitable Just because it is one of my pet peeves... but buying lego to sell at a profit later, is not investing. It is speculating*. Same for buying anything only on the assumption (or even certainty) that you will be able to sell it at a profit. Investing is buyi...

If it makes you feel better: I only buy lego for myself or to give as presents to my daughter or her friends when they have a birthday and such.

Just FYI (because I'm OCD like that :) ) - picked up my order and it was actually in good shape. Shipping label on the box, but easy to peel off. So for those who are interested: the Kre-O Star Trek stuff is actually excellent quality. Like their Transformers series, the blocks are all made to high ...

Not that it helps you much, but they had a few small Friends sets left at 50% in Saint John, New Brunswick. I picked up four as birthday presents for whenever my daughter is invited to one of her friends' birthdays. And one for a toy drive :) They also seemed to have missed one Galaxy Squad set in t...

Well... at least the order confirmation is in. Now lets hope they don't cancel it again like they did my last order... The Kre-O set original price: 79.99. Currently listed on their website at 30% for 55.99. Ended up in my order as 18.54 (before tax). The Ninja Turtle Stealth Bike set I added to rou...

cheers - mark

+1!

I keep saying I am done with Sears.ca, but they keep sucking me back in. I had been eyeing that Kre-o Enterprise for a while (yes... yes I am a geek). It is listed at 30% off at the moment. But when I added it to my cart on sears.ca, for some reason they applied another discount and it ended up at $...

Another thought or suggestion, one can donate to SIckkids hospital if they live in Toronto, those kids have a harder time compared to those that their parents cannot afford toys for them. For sure! Great idea. The main idea being to donate something we are all a bit obsessive about (or we wouldn't ...

Heh :) thanks, that is a very nice compliment... Hmm, maybe a totally informal suggestion/idea for the readers on this forum? A little pre-New Years resolution? Help spread the hobby by donating a Lego set to the Salvation Army or similar, so a less fortunate kid can get a really nice (and, let's be...

I just bought two Galaxy Squad sets (original price about $175 together, ex tax), for $47 including tax. Cashier took the BOGO off without even asking. So I'm really pleased. One is for a Christmas present to a Salvation army family and one just as a present to myself.

To my surprise, Target in Saint John, New Brunswick still had plenty left of most Galaxy sets on Saturday.

If you do have issues, Sears.ca actually seems to respond to comments made on their Facebook page. I was called after being messed around with the Black Gate set 'in stock' then a week later 'oh we cancelled your order' without any explanation... I appreciate the personal contact, not that they were...

Again will pass till they clear them out at 40-50% off all their sets. These 2 40% off sets have been at 50% or more at Walmart, Target before. I think the point was that with these codes, you can get another 15% off as well as 30% in Sears gift cards back as points... Unless they cancel those extr...

Thanks found it there. It seems to work too... The $10 off $100 doesn't appear to work, or not in combination with the other coupons. Also - the 15X points coupon does have in the small print 'cant be combined with other coupons'. Sears just sucks with all these various coupons and offers that work ...

What 15% off coupon?

Sorry, 15x points is only if you pay with their (no-fee) Mastercard. I know what you mean about yet another credit card though. Other than that, it basically works out as a 2% discount on anything you buy at Sears - returned in the form of a Sears gift card. So in this case above, it would essential...

Also seems to be 15x Sears points on > $150. Not sure if that would stack.

The $10 off > $100 code that was in a thread below seems to apply when I tried it on the Falcon. Just FYI.

Thanks! Found it. I was looking too much near the lego stuff :)

Thanks! I can't find a statement anywhere about that pricematch + 10%... Can anyone point me to a link or page in the flyer where that is clearly indicated?
