25% off $50+ purchase ALL LEGO sets @ TRU 12/14-12/15

[SWLegoFanatic]

Correction - its only valid on a $50+ purchase

The deep freeze in hell continues ;-). Although not as good as other sales, if you buy multiples of the same set (30005 anyone? ;-) it amounts to the same as the BOGO 50% sales...

Will this stack with the sets that have a 40% price cut as well? That would make a shopping spree absolutely irresistible.

[onions]

no reason why it shouldn't. coupons tend to stack with items already discounted.

Looks like I'll be burning through some recent birthday money this week then. SWEET!

Perhaps they'll have the 2011 SW sets on shelves in the local store too. Fingers crossed.

The only way you'll know is if you try.

I may go back and get some more of the 30005 sets...you only need to buy 13 of them to qualify for the sale price ;-)...

[indelible]

Which sets are 40% off?

[The Brain]

Count Dooku's Solar Sailor, Separatist Shuttle, and TIE Defender. I'll definitely be picking up a Solar Sailor at the finally-reasonable price of $35. Plus another 25% off if I get some other stuff, and another 10% back from "R" rewards. PLUS a free 30005. That's a pretty darn good sale, especially for TRU.

Well, I can confirm that you can double and triple dip on the 40% off and free minifigure with the 25% coupon. I know some people don't believe they will work but there was no issue. Also, I saw four cases of series 3 minifigures at my store. I was in a hurry and wanted to pick up solar sailors before my departing flight so no new figures for me.

unfortunatly i went to my semi local TRU and for the third time no promo items yet again and when i ask the manager for a district manager's number i got kicked out of the store so a 50 mile round trip for nothing

Seriously? They kicked u out?

[mikado]

yup they really kicked me out.... guess some stores dont really give a gorram about customer service or satisfaction

[popnfresh]

solar sailor for 26 bux makes it finally worth it

tie defender for 23 odd bux is great too

you should go back with a hidden camera and get it on film.

just saying.

I'd call the corp office. Bet you they'd send a gift certificate to you if you handle yourself well on the phone to them.

I can't believe it. I went in with my receipts from the past few sales I've purchased during the various Lego sales, just looking to get my 25% back on the sets I paid full price for and they refunded me 25% off EVERY set I bought -even the discounted ones! I nearly fell over. So the moral here is BRING IN YOUR RECEIPTS from the past couple of sales! I'm going back in tomorrow cause I think I've got other receipts still...

[othertoe]

I didn't know TRU they did backwards price match How far back will they go 30 days?

[SWLegoFanatic]

I think so-cause I was just in there 2 nights ago to get the price adjustment for the defenders...so I got those for 40% off, plus today I got another 25% off as well...haven't done all the math, but I'll let you all know what I ended up paying with the multi dip discounts ;-)

[zwolya]

Ugh, lucky you...my TRU had no Solar Sailors, no '11 line, and no free Stormies...plus someone had already cleared out all the Elves and Fishermen from Series 3, so it wasn't really worth stocking up on old Battle Packs just to get the 25%!

[SWLegoFanatic]

On the TIE Defenders, I actually just got the difference between what I paid on the BOGO vs. what I would have paid for getting them @ 40% off, which was an additional $15.90 back. From what I can tell of the cryptic Toys R Us Receipts, here's what I ended up paying for the various sets after all was said and done (between BOGO 50% offs + additional 25% off, or just the 40% off sale or just the 25% off sale.

TIE Defender: 31.79 (40% off only)
AT-AT #1: 45.00 (BOGO 50% + 25% off retro discount)
AT-AT #2: 90.00 (25% off only)
Endor Battle: $41.25 (BOGO 50% + 25% off retro discount)
Turbo Tank: $97.50 (25% off only)
Stormtrooper minifig price #1: $1.50 (BOGO 50% + 25% off retro discount)
Stormtrooper minifig price #2: $3.00 (25% off only)

I'm not so sure I should have gotten the additional 25% off on the all ready discounted sets, but I'm not complaining!

[schlectus]

A decent small-haul at TRU with the 25% coupon...$42 got me the Separatist Shuttle and 9 series 3 minifigs. The nice part, though, was the "free Stormy"...which actually ended up being the 2 gig minifig flash drive instead! (wouldn't count on that happening too often though...)

Mostly, I was just happy to pay actual retail price for series 3...how sad is that??
