Dare I say, Walmart?

omgusosilly

Just picked up two of the Iron Man polys from the Story Rd Walmart in San Jose with at least 5 more in the case (I didn't stop to count since the employee had to unlock the glass case for me to pick them out). Noticed this morning that the sku went up from 4 to 31 this morning so I decided to drop by. The number was already down to about 14 by the time I got there this late afternoon! But good news for anyone looking in the bay area? Seems like the Walmarts here are finally getting their stock!

They have the Brickheadz Seasonal Bunny sets at my Neighborhood Walmart (grocery store sans the other aisles).

I've been to several Walmarts and found the Easter set up, but no Iron Man polys in sight, even though Brickseek says they're in stock. 

Let me know if they don't show up, there's a good number of them at my local Walmart. Also saw the Fire ATV polybag and was tempted to get it just for the axe.

So does anyone have the #30452 Iron Man poly SKU at Walmart?

SKU: 181873089 UPC: 67341930616

#30452 is on the Walmart app! Mine showed up under the 'in store' tab. Just placed an order and while it says it will be fulfilled today, I have had issues with that before. Just a heads up.

CaptainRogers

...and they canceled my order since now the item is magically 'out of stock'. Even though the app showed in stock. Grrrr.

CaptainRogers

I tried ordering local pick up at two more Walmart stores... Each one cancelled in just a few hours. Thanks Walmart. If you didn't have such great clearance prices and such selection, I'd have half a mind to shop elsewhere.

^That sucks man.  I don't think it has anything to do with a $$$ threshold either, as I have picked up single polys bags before using that method.  In the end WM's pickup service is very inconsistent and unreliable.  I refuse to use it again after waiting 20 minutes after checking in to pick up a Switch game last month.

Walmart, Mountain View got the Iron Man's in too. Located in the Easter area not in the LEGO aisle.

NeilJam

Picked up #75974 Bastion for $21 and #76107 Thanos Ultimate Battle for $15.

NeilJam

In WV, forgot to mention I also got #41287 Bubbles Playground for $3. I think another Overwatch set was reduced but sold out, however the ones I mostly want are still the same price as when released.

what! what state do you live in?

Rather than waiting to see if they happen to be close to you, try using BrickSeek.com to check prices and inventory at Walmarts near you. Walmart frequently puts the same things on clearance across the country. 
https://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker
If you don’t know the item SKU, use the SKU finder option. It usually works fine with a search string like “Lego 75974”. And remember, you need to specify “Lego”. The Brick in Brickseek refers to brick & mortar, not Lego.

I picked up #41153 for $21, with several on the shelf. I know it's not Star Wars, but might come in handy at Christmas ;)

I had to stop at Walmart today to quickly pick up a few things since they are the only place open on Easter Sunday, and they showed 10 iron man Polys in stock on Brickseek. Searched everywhere, and they were no where to be found. Asked a store employee and no one answered their call. I was pressed for time so I couldn’t spend anymore time on a wild goose chase. Grrrrrrrrrr. Walmart.com lists them as “only available in store” and they aren’t even available to order for pickup. I rarely go to Walmart and I’d be hard pressed to go back and just be frustrated all over again.

ReesesPieces

@bpk2300 I would suggest checking brickseek every now and then.  All the Walmart's stock went down very quickly (assuming by resellers since several walmarts' stock took a high dip overnight).  However, I just noticed couple of the walmarts inventory went back up and was able to pick some up meaning they are still restocking these.  I know it is a pain but good luck.

CaptainRogers

Stopped into a Walmart Neighborhood Market (the grocery store only variety) and was pleasantly surprised by a small end cap with #71024 Disney Series 2 CMFs. Not only that, but at the register it rang up for only $3. 

bpk2300

Stopped at a Walmart this morning that was showing 20 Ironman polys in stock, but they were no where to be found (of course). They did have a handful Disney CMF Series 2 in stock, and as far as I could tell, most were Frozone.

I did find the Jack and Sally Brickheadz #41630 on the top shelf, on clearance for $9. I know these sell for around $30 now but I don’t collect Brickheadz.

Still plenty left in my store.

Sometimes, an ancient set is unearthed by the archaeologists in the back room of Walmart. 

Astrobricks

^ Do they even scan on the price checkers?

Actually they did! At least with the Walmart app. #70200 Chi Laval is $15, but #70205 Chi Razar is a sweet discounted price of only $11!

Pyrobug

Keep an eye on them. Hopefully soon, they'll be priced to move.

Brickset lists the value of Laval NIB as $29 and Razar, according to Brickset, actually went down in value to $9.00. I know that doesn't mean much but I found it interesting.

That's how I ended up with #41063. It was just randomly tucked into the Lego aisle last spring, the box looking like it'd been sat on. I'd kinda wanted the Sebastian piece to put in the kitchen in #71040, but not enough to spend the $70 CAD the set was going for. It scanned at 30$, so it was an instant buy. 

BrickByBrick

Back in fall 2017 when walmarts were clearancing the TLBM Scuttler and Killer Croc set for $30 I went to one a bit out of my way only to find #9483 Agent Mater's escape sitting there priced at $11. Already owned it but I loved the cars theme so I bought that second one just for fun. 

autolycus

Almost not even worth posting because it seems to be the norm now, but my Walmart had plenty of stock and 20% off:

1) 20th Anniversary SW sets except Slave 1, which was full price--this isn't a new deal, but they've restocked, so it might be worth checking if your store had run out of stuff

2) Toy Story 4 sets: RV Vacation ($28/35), Duke Caboom's Stunt Show ($16/20), Buzz & Woody's Carnival Mania ($40/50), and Carnival Thrill Coaster ($16/20). They also had RC & Buzz, but it was $9.84, so barely any discount ($10 RRP). I didn't see any of Buzz & Bo Peep's Playground, but it's on their website for 20% off and showing in stock at other nearby stores.

They had a ton of Hogwarts Castle. I'm still hoping that one gets the 20% discount treatment at SOME point. And Slave 1. Come on, Walmart, give me a good discount on those big sets!!!!

NeilJam

Lots of sets this year including some of the TLM2 and Overwatch themes were 20% off when they first hit shelves. Some sets have since gone up to regular price while some were reduced further.

CaptainRogers

Found a nice score driving down to Myrtle Beach last week. Got six copies of #75210 Moloch's Landspeeder for $7 apiece.

Bumblepants

Walmart has a handful of $20 August sets out now in a display with 'Get them here first' signage. The Instagram pic I saw had a Ninjago bike, the Minecraft Sheep, a Friends beach set and a few others.

Jenni

Oh, my daughter's going to be so mad if the baby turtles are out here already. She got hers in Japan and hasn't been able to show them off yet (LUG meeting is still two weeks away).

CaptainRogers

#31084 Creator Pirate Roller Coaster on sale for $57.99 per Slickdeals.

Switchfoot55

My local Walmart seems to be out of LEGO. Aside from a few sets here and there, the aisle is largely empty. I must have missed a huge local clearance event?

The Walmart I visited tonight also had the Harry Potter patronus set and the $20 Jurassic World set.

Interesting. That’s marked as a rollback, not a sale. I think it was at $64 in the stores previously.

It was OOS at about 4:30pm today, unless it has been coming in and out of stock. Amazon price matched it though and still appears to be available there

Astrobricks

Now if this thread would just flip to page 67 :)

madforLEGO

I just know that I'm torn on getting #70840. It is a decent price on sale now, but something is telling me to hold out for a deeper price cut at some point. Maybe its because the one figure I really wanted, the Apocalypse Batman, can be gotten in less expensive sets (though the Harley Quinn would be neat to have as well)

red237

The Grand Carousel is $129 online right now. #10257

ReesesPieces

Wow!!!  Thank you so much!  Was looking for a good deal on this since the ferris wheel deal over winter!

CaptainRogers

Aw, crap. Great D2C sales?!? Not again! 

But seriously, thank you. I've also been waiting for sales on other fairground sets since nabbing the Ferris Wheel early this year.

ReesesPieces

Not as exciting as the carousel but Overwatch Dorado Showdown #75972 is $17 (43% off).

BillyBricks84

Saturn V is at $95 and Winter Village Train is $65.
