    Unfortunately, my Target never seems to have CMF's, but that's good to know if I do see them.

    I got tired of waiting for my TRU to restock the minifigures.  I went to Target and got a price match.  TRU has the sale item listed this week in the on-line version of their weekly ad.
    anyone have a link to the ad?  I can't seem to find anything that I could show to Target to try and negotiate a price match.

    I went here, http://www.toysrus.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=20096456, and clicked on the 'browse local ad' button. The CMF deal was on the 2nd page.

    Which works if your Target has them. No Target around me has even had a spot designated for them for series 15. I have only found them at Five Below (and someone promptly bought them all) and at the LEGO store and LEGO Discovery Centers

    I saw them at 5 Below but they were listed for $5 each!  Do they price match?

    I was done with CMF when Mr. Gold came out. And to think my daughters will be begging me for the overpriced Disney Series...ugh.

    On Saturday I went to Target and was told that they would only price match one pair of minifigures because it was on online deal. On Sunday I went to the local Toys R Us and picked up a paper copy of their Easter sale flyer. I brought the flyer with me to Target and was able to purchase 20 from Series 13, but only after several minutes of negotiation at the customer service desk. It seems Target wants to scan the barcode of the price-matched item for verification. I pointed out that the deal on page 3 of the print ad was for ALL blind-bags priced $2.99-$4.99, then patiently waited for about 10 minutes while they tried to find a barcode to scan. They eventually did a manual override for the price match.

    Here's a link to the Easter Flyer - If you can get hardcopy locally, I recommend bringing it with you rather than relying on the website.

    I also did a price match at Walmart with a printout of the ad.  That could be another way to go if you are having trouble getting them at TRU.
  • KingAlanIKingAlanI Member Posts: 2,354
    They had 14 CMFs, and I got another on sale set to get just over $50 for a free Airjutsu (picked #70756 Dojo Showdown and #70741 Cole)

    3x Wrestling Champion
    2x Clumsy Guy, Ballerina, Faun
    Kendo Fighter, Janitor, Jewel Thief, Queen, Astronaut

    Clumsy Guy, Ballerina, Janitor and Queen were the only ones I could feel out. I wanted a Clumsy Guy for my hospital MOC. I'll give Wrestling Champions to some pro wrestling fans I know. The rest I'll sell.
  • monstblitzmonstblitz Member Posts: 653
    I went to a Target in the DC area today to try and find some minifigs and a price match. All they had were series 13 priced at $4.89.  When I asked for price match I got a line of bull about how they don't honor 2 for $X.XX or BOGO deals. 
  • datsunrobbiedatsunrobbie Member Posts: 1,832
    ^I got similar results when I went to Target the first time, trying to price match off the website ad. Came back the next day with the printed copy of the Easter catalog in hand, got a different person at the customer service counter, and ended up with 20 minifigures at 2/$5. "Please" and "Thank You" can be a big part of getting the deal when it requires a manual override, and at the store I went to the customer service rep did have to manually override the price.

    Yes, I usually have much better luck at Target.  I've found Lego sets misplaced on the 50% or 30% off rack (legitimately, not placed there by me) and they have always been really good about honoring it.  Or getting an extra 20% off on a damaged box (scored City Square for $80!).  But the 2 people working the customer service desk at this particular target were ornery and probably had the collective IQ of a box of rocks.  They wouldn't even look at the ad.  "Nuh uh, we don't do that."

    I know when to fight and when to walk away.  Good luck to them selling series 13 figures for $4.89!  I'm going to try some of the Targets in Northern VA as I have much better luck there.

    hmmm... surprise no one mentioned this today; TRU, BRU & BN gift cards are on sale at eBay today for 15% off.  I know it's not 20% like last round, but still a good deal, especially if you have the additional bonus eBay bucks offer.

    ^Yay thanks! I picked up a Gamestop $50+$10 Gift card (for SW Battlefront) and $200 in TRU cards, debating if I should spring for another $100 or not.

    ^Does it suck bad? I've seen the reviews criticizing it for no campaign, but how is the Multiplayer? That's my bread and butter with CoD as preferred platform. Less enthused about MP style of Battlefield 1-3, but I'm guessing it's just like these but in SW skins.

    I got it to play with my kids. The game isn't very deep and it's a pain to play offline.

    Im all about the multiplayer as well. Hardcore Cod and BF player. I rarely ever play a campaign. The gameplay in battlefront just gets old very fast. Its very basic. The only saving grace is that it is Star Wars themed. That novelty wears off quick though.

    I wish I would have tried it from Redbox before I bought it. To make it worse, I listened to my buddy and bought the digital download so I cant even get any money back for it.
  • Thanos75Thanos75 Member Posts: 1,120
    I mainly got it because it came with a frozen Han Solo minifridge.... The fridge is way cooler then the game. Pun intended.

  • KingAlanIKingAlanI Member Posts: 2,354
    Do kids enjoy SW Battlefront, or does it stink for all age groups?
    I've had good luck at the local Target's service desk on other issues, so if Target has CMFs I'll try using the TRU web ad.
  • BrickDancerBrickDancer Member Posts: 3,639
    @Dtrimpi87 Same here, rarely do campaigns either. Just hours on hours of slaughter on Multiplayer. But that's a brilliant idea, I'm gonna give it a test run from Redbox first. And yea I'm not buying into the digital download pitch, that's money gone forever on a 1-way ticket.

    Decided to use another 20% coupon before they expire tomorrow. All I could find was
    Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle 75104 $119+tax - After the 20% coupon and 15% discounted GiftCard,they had ran out of the free Airjitzu so they gave me a $11.99 credit resulting in a final cost of $76+change.They gave me the option of giving me a voucher & coming back for the free Airjitzu or the credit so that was a no brainer.
  • TheLoneTensorTheLoneTensor Member Posts: 3,937
    An $11.99 credit for a $4 polybag huh?
  • busumoe1busumoe1 Member Posts: 194
    ^airjitzu are supposed to be $9.99, so in this case, the $11.99 refund is the silver lining of the usual TRU 20% markup.

    I got an in-stock notification last night for #30446 Batmobile polybag and checked in with TRU.com within 15 minutes and there was no product listed or findable via search. Did anyone get the poly, or was this just an April Fools fake out?

    I got #30446 with the promotion a week+ ago.

    I stopped by my local TRU yesterday afternoon and there were several #30446 hanging on the racks.
  • ryjayryjay Member Posts: 1,009
    yep, saw plenty on the racks. 
  • pansyppansyp Member Posts: 93
    Thanks @JooTog & @ryjay. Stopped in at my closest TRU this AM and they had zero polys...no Friends, no Star Wars, no Superheroes, nada. Weird.

    It's happened to me before but for the tiger poly when it first starting appearing.  The guy even checked the store computer and it said they had X number in stock but he couldn't find it in the back.  He said something or other about the system not tracking right when things first come in blah blah...

    Anyway, I've been to a few TRU and all of them had at least a few Batmobiles on the pegs.  During the promo, I saw a box full of them at a register.  You should ask if they can find some since they might still be under the registers at your store.

    Nvm.  Ordered a few just for the heck of it, TRU accepted the order.  Clicked submit button and the items are already gone.  Listing now says it's out of stock.
