Last Chance To Buy From Creations For Charity 2012

Now is the time...

With just 5 days left to buy an item from the Creations For Charity store, time is quickly running out to help raise money to buy LEGO sets for underprivileged children this holiday season. I’ve been honoured to be a part of this charity in my own small way for the past two years and just shipped off my 2012 donation to it’s new home over the weekend. All the items from the store have been reduced to their minimum price and at last glance there were items priced at as little as $2 like the CFC bracelet, so if you haven’t helped out yet but planned on making a purchase please take a look!

Black Friday Deals

Black Friday Shopping

Update 2: Updated Toys’R'Us; added Barnes and Noble, Kmart

Update: Added Toys’R'Us, Meijer, Overstock

Just like last year, I’ll be compiling all of the Black Friday deal that mentions LEGO into one post. Forum member ufjason already started a thread about it and from the looks of it, there aren’t any wallet-breaking deals that are worth going after. I’ll be updating this list as more ads come in so keep an eye out.

LEGO Brand Retail Black Friday Event, Exclusive Holiday Set

download

Forum member that guy received his invitation for LEGO Brand Retail’s Black Friday event. The Black Friday event is a special sales event held by the LEGO Brand Retail stores where a select number of customers are invited to shop at the store during special hours. It is still a mystery as to how LEGO chooses which customers to invite. The only distinction that shopping at a retail location versus online are the pull cards. The details he was able to glean are as follows:

Shop@Home Debuts Retiring Soon Page

LEGO Shop@Home has debuted a ‘Retiring Soon‘ to inform customers of sets that are, like the page says, retiring soon. I’m sure we’ve all had that feeling where you’re browsing their site and see the dreaded words “Sold Out” or “Call to check product availability” under set names. Well this page will help make it easier to know when a set is approaching the end of their lifecycle.

Currently, there is one set in particular on that page that is worth mentioning and that is 10193 Medieval Market Village. It is a fantastic set with tons of play features and can fit into just about any Castle-themed setting. At $99 for 1,619 pieces, you get your money’s worth and then some. Amazon has this set for 10% off at $89.86, but buy it from Shop@Home and get free shipping AND VIP points while you’re at it.

Thanks again to ufjason for the heads up.
