[US] Walmart summer clearance sales

Postby BrickSavage » Thu Aug 02, 2012 9:27 am

I was just at my local WalMart and just picked up The Battle of Helms Deep for $89 they also had Quinjet Aerial Battle for $49. They also had many City, Cars, UFO, Star Wars and Hero Factory sets on sale. If you live close to a WalMart you might want to check it out

I went to a Walmart a week ago or so and got a TIE Fighter for $5, but unfortunately it was their only one. No other set was marked down.

Another Walmart had more TIEs but were still at full price and no other set was marked down.

Maybe I'll try another Walmart tonight. Unfortunately, it seems all the local Walmarts have like 1/4 or less of a toy aisle set aside for LEGO. At one Walmart I found a couple LotR sets in the pool aisle.

Yep, everybody get out to your Walmart ASAP - I just got back as well, and they had LOTS of sets on clearance. Picked up Helm's Deep for $89 as well!!!

This has to be some kind of screw up, right?? LotR sets have only been out less than a month, so it makes no sense for them to be on clearance so soon. I had to do a double-take when I saw the red tags!!

For the record, here are some deals that I can recall:

Helm's Deep - $89
Weathertop - $40
Mines of Moria - $54
Quinjet - $50
Hellicarrier Breakout - $35
Republic Frigate - $54
TIE Fighter - $35

And quite a few more.

Man. No such luck at my Walmart. They did have the Batcave for $49 though.

Hit up one Walmart this morning and the back wall near the toy section was filled up with clearance stuff but nothing enough to make me bite as Walmart "clearance prices" were only about $2 - $10 (at the most) off regular prices. Didn't see anything as new as LOTR or Avengers sets. Saw some City shuttle sets, Creator lighthouse, T-16, podracers, bounty hunter ship, Cars stuff, Alien Conquest abduction and tripod, Hero factory.
Gonna go check a few other Walmarts this weekend, hopefully find something good

Found the $50 Hogwarts battle set and POTC Whitecap Bay for $15 each. Best deal I've ever gotten at a Walmart.

Wow $15 Whitecap?!? Nice score! I saw a memeber on another board score the new Black Pearl for $20.
I hit a few more Walmarts yesterday in search of those deals or a deal on Helms Deep or Hulk helicarrier breakout but came up empty on those. Saw a lot of the same stuff everyone else is reporting but the only thing I picked up was the bike transport set for $13

Hit another Walmart today, and no trace of Helm's Deep or the Quinjet. They had Pod Racers at $64 though. Even a Dino set on clearance.

After some digging around, I did find a Hogwart's Castle hidden behind some bigger boxes. Nabbed it for $64.

One local Walmart had PotC Black Pearl for $70, Harry Potter Knight Bus for $22, and a few other PotC and HP sets on clearance, about 30% off. No other themes were on clearance.

Another Walmart I went to on the same day had nothing on clearance. Of course, they barely had any LEGO to begin with, so maybe that's why they didn't put anything on clearance.

This is the best clearance I've seen at Walmart in MANY years. It's all other the place though. Different sets at each store.

Wow. Keep checking back. Last week, no sale on Helm's Deep or Quinjet. Tonight, more than half their sets are 30% off including these two. My Lego budget is getting wiped out!

My closest Wal-Mart had very little Lego on the regular shelves and just a few sets in the clearance section. Frustratingly, the sets in the clearance section were marked at full price.

Snagged the Quinjet and Helicarrier sets for 30% off in Fallon, NV. They also had the Bounty Hunter Ship and the Avengers jeep set marked down too.

Still looking for the Helms Deep clearance.

Hit another Walmart on lunch, and this one had the patented Walmart full price clearance pricing on Helm's Deep, Republic Frigate, and Black pearl.

Went to 5 Walmarts in Rochester NY hunting for Lego deals (I'm on vacation...). They each had different clearance items--not a single set was clearanced in more than one store. Found nothing of interest until I got to the last store and picked up a Black Pearl for $74. It was one of about a dozen on the "clearance aisle."

I found one Wal-Mart with Hulk, Joker, and Green Lantern for $11 each, almost 27% off. Batman, Iron Man, and Captain America were still $15. (I scanned 'em to make sure the shelf tags were correct. They were....)

So far, I have only put together Hulk, and...I find this scale very interesting.

I have been to 4 WMs in the last few days. 1 had no clearance, 1 had Friends only on clearance, 1 had friends and some dino, and one had dino, friends and the $120 clone wars starship for $80. I bought two of those, and selectively of Friends and Dino. All about 30% off, the SW set was the best deal, as I figure I can move the minifigs for about half what i paid for each set. I wanted more Dinos anyway... and the Friends were more out of curiosity/parts packs.

Drove to Vegas this past weekend and this is what I ran into. Victorville Wal-Mart has all the POTC sets at 30% except for the Black Pearl. All HP sets are 30% off too. Only thing SW was the t-16 shuttle at $50.

The Wal Mart near Barstow and the one in Vegas near the Airport that has a Sam's club next to it - the usual SW stuff was on clearance as well. Sith Infiltrator, Pod Race, and V-Wing at 30% off
