    I asked the lady how she knew she had to mark down the prices for those set, she answered "i received an alert in the system, i am actually late to do it" she did not know if the order was local or corporate

    I found #60119 Ferry in the clearance aisle at Walmart yesterday, price would not scan. Customer service rep tried to look it up, said it was no longer in their system, and accepted my offer of $15 for the set.

    ^ Giving an offer never works for me. They look it up on the remote server if it isn't in the store computer, and that is almost always the retail price. Glad you can do that, though!

    ^The time I tried to get a discount for an opened (and incomplete) box, they said no, that they just return them. I'm glad you were able to get it at a good price.

    Either way, my store still struggles to streamline their ship-to-store procedures; I can't believe it's still a hassle to pick up some items.

    saw these this morning    bought the TIE Striker

    @bsiu922 Those sets are behind glass windows? How does that work? Is it the whole aisle or just part of it? How long have they been there? I've never seen that before. Only in Electronics.

    it is one of the store that i saw it like that,  the other doesn't ,   guess the shopper need to ask for associate to open and get it.   I think that store has it since before 2016 X'mas.

    I found these at the Irving TX Walmart.

    #75148 Encounter On Jakku - $16.00
    #75120 K-2SO $5.00
    #75121 Death Tooper $5.00

    #75152 Imperial Assault Hovertank $14.00
    #75145 Eclipse Fighter $15.00
    #75525 Baze Malbus $7.00

    None of them were marked. 



    Hope the store I go to will mark their sets down this low/not run out of supply. Stopped by today and still have not dropped this low.

    Is the Walmart App (price scanner) accurate? Favorable in any instance?
  • CaptainRogersCaptainRogers Member Posts: 865

    From my experience, yes. You could see the price of a Lego set in other stores as well if you click 'see more stores' under an item description. That will save a lot of driving.

    nope.  This Walmart is known for doing crazy stuff like this and since I bought 15 Death troopers and they all range up the same and a lot where from the overhead.
  • josekaleljosekalel Member Posts: 683
    Not a good trip, but I snagged yet two more #31050...



    And of course, someone took all the Krennic Shuttles...

    I have never been able to find good discounts at the local Walmart stores... except yesterday. All 50% off: (grabbed one of each - plenty left)

    - #75139 Battle on Takodana
    - #75148 Encounter on Jakku
    - #75824 Pig City Teardown (last one)
    - #21121 The Desert Outpost
    - #21124 The End Portal

    Not the huge discounts others have found, but from never seeing LEGO on clearance to 50% off, well, let us say I am a happy camper :-D

    My husband found #70323 Jestro's Volcano Lair for $59 at a store in Maryland.
  • eggsheneggshen Member Posts: 600
    #70352 Jestro's Headquarters is on rollback for $54.67 on their website. You'll have to order online for store pickup or price match at Toysrus. I don't know if they price match themselves instore.

    I really love the volcano lair. One of the best nexo knights set imo.

    Right, because, uhm, we all have a LEGO budget that we follow...

    LEGO spending is discretionary spending for most of us. 
  • MegtheCatMegtheCat Member Posts: 500
    ^Yeah, I don't actually have a Lego budget, but I am going beyond the normal threshold with all of this clearance.

    What is this 'LEGO budget'? Is it a new set? :D

    I think it is a MOC of a Budget Rental Car agency ;-)
    Seems to be poorly built as it is always being blown off.

    I picked up #75111-1 at Walmart today for $15, which was my cut off point price for this.

    Went to two stores tonight and both had a price of $59 on the shelf tag for #75157 Cap'n Rex's AT-TE, but only one store had any left (2) and I took one.

    Nothing spectacular, but several 20% or so rollbacks and similar discounts on some sets without rollback signs
    A few loose S17 bags, nothing I wanted
  • ReesesPiecesReesesPieces Member Posts: 1,120
    Some items seem to have gotten extra markdowns.
    #42054 is marked down to $75 from original price of $179.  I'm not big on technic so I left both.
    #75119 jyn Erso constraction figure is marked down to $4.
    #66546 riddler & joker combo set is marked down to $11.50.  It was all gone but I was able to return and rebuy the two I bought last week for $25 each.

    This is the lee Hwy walmart in Northern va.
  • pharmjodpharmjod Member Posts: 2,916
    You are crazy to pass on #42054 @ $75. That is not even sold in stores so likely a return or store pickup. At over 50% off you can't lose with it.

    It's been at this store for a while.  I've spent so much on lego already but you are tempting me to go back to get them.
  • josekaleljosekalel Member Posts: 683
    I am not even a big Technic fan and I would get it...go get it :p

    I wasn't planning to get #75157, but at that price I had to make up the excuse that the old Phantom needed a base-stand (now that Phantom mkII is occupying its place in the Ghost) :D

    Local WM just put out 70917-1: The Ultimate Batmobile tonight.  Does this mean new star wars may be on the horizon??

  • ryjayryjay Member Posts: 1,001

    Where do you put a code in at Walmart? I cannot find anyplace to add this code, and jet.com does not appear to have the Saturn V available.

    Ahhh, so apparently IF you use the 2 day shipping, which tacks on another 15 dollar shipping fee, you supposedly can use this code, but I still cannot find anyplace on their site that allows you to enter the code. Apparently those on Slickdeals are telling that this is a targeted promotional code only.
  • oldtodd33oldtodd33 Member Posts: 2,696
    Apparently if I have it shipped to my house for free it's $4 cheaper than in store pick up.

    I will say this, with this appearing in many different stores already I'm guessing it means they will be making a good number of these, and it may mean a discount to at least 99.99 at some point (at least that is what I am hoping)

    I don't know what all the specifics are but Walmart is advertising 2-day free ship for a bunch of items. It not only gave me that for Lego orders but also tacked on 15% off automatically for the second one. The first order I manually entered it after it popped up in an ad on the website in a box during checkout.

    Brickseek helped again - #75156 Krennic's Shuttle for $54.  Probably only because the shelf tag showed $73.  But I paid and shifted out of the store stealthily with my treasure............

    What is the UPC code you're using for Krennic?
    I've visited Brickseek but without that info, no go...
