How Many Holiday PAB boxes are you filling/going to fill?

I forgot a few things that might also help you with PAB selection.

As some of you know, the bottom two rows must be filled with elements no smaller than a two-by-four brick. This is why so many walls have so many basic bricks. This is done because of possible choking hazards with younger children.

Then (and I didn't know this) it is policy that they must have tires, hub inserts for tires, and the piece that the hubs can attach to. This means a little over a third of any wall is already spoken for. Now from there the store has two options.

The first is they can get auto filled. That means their pieces will only change twice a year. The same pieces will go in the same slots and only the store manager can change this.

Second, the store orders the elements. This is where you can see some more interesting elements. The problem is not many stores are given the hours for their employees to adequately do this process. So if you can get the opportunity to look at the ordering catalog it can potentially help the employee who makes the order since that's a few less things they have to try and pick out. Besides it's also kind of fun. :)

I'm not sure about the holiday boxes, but Lego encourages you to dump your bricks at home and re-use the cup. There's a small discount when you bring your cup back to fill again (I think it's .25 cents). I hope that helps. You'll have to tell me if something's different about boxes.

There is a 50 cent discount for reusing the large cup, I'm not sure about the smaller cup.

If you reuse the smaller PAB cup you save 25-cents.
I'm addicted to the PAB wall/cup.

That's cool. I didn't know that the smaller cup was half the discount but it makes sense. And I know what you mean, that wall is dangerous to the pocket book. :)
