Walgreens

Didn't see a thread for Walgreens. The store near me has a few LEGO sets.
Got a #70753 Lava Falls for $5.39 (list price $8.99, MSRP $7.99). The store also had #70745 Anacondrai Cruiser for $11.99 instead of $19.99 - I might go back for that. Those were on a clearance shelf in the toy aisle rather than filed with other LEGO.
They put Friends sets in with other stereotypically girly toys. Saw a couple of banged up #40110 Olivia's Exploration Car at MSRP. Asked for a discount before but they were put back on the shelf as is.
Also saw some CMF Series 14 and small modern sets at MSRP.

    Walgreens is always a hit or miss for me. I never make a point to go there for LEGO, but I'll always check the toy aisle when I do have to stop in.

    BTW, I highly recommend #70745 as it's a cool set and extremely underrated. It was one of my favorites from that wave.

    There's a couple Walgreens right near other places I go, so I often stop in.
    70745 does look cool, especially on sale, but I'm saving up to go to a LEGO Store tomorrow. I'll get one for myself if the LEGO Store doesn't clean me out or with money I get afterwards.
    I got a #70752 Jungle Trap on sale elsewhere. It hasn't sold on BrickLink. I'll build it along with the 70753 and maybe 70745, perhaps combining parts.

    Always a shot in the dark here!  I found some Simpsons Series 2 figs on the shelf today....

    I haven't been in a Walgreen's in a while, but there are two a hour away from me. The last time I think I went in one was about 4 years (?) ago. But when I went in there, they did have quite a few CMFs. 
  • KingAlanIKingAlanI Rochester, NYMember Posts: 2,115
    #41047 for $2.64, half off $5.29. (Brickset has no US list price) Pleasantly surprised it rang up under $3. Didn't see any other Friends animals sets.

    My local Walgreens has #31037 Adventure Vehicles for 50% off, I picked up a couple for $12.49 each this morning. 

    I also just noticed that the packaging has the name misspelled. It should be "vehicles" but the box says "vehicules". Weird.

    Some of the same Ninjago sets even cheaper, and some other stuff. Hmm.
    Haven't seen any discount LEGO at the one a mile from me, will check the store two miles from next time I'm down that way,

    Nothing in discount at my nearest Walgreens.

    But Easter candy was 70% off!

    I haven't checked Easter candy sales. I still have a lot left from Valentines Day and Halloween. Also, I'm not big on chocolate or Peeps. :)

    Vehicules is French.. Is it spelt that way on the English title too? Pics?

    Box pic on Brickset shows the typo.

    Just picked up #76044 BvS Clash of the Heroes at a Walgreens by me for $3.59.  I was hoping to find a clearanced K-2SO constraction set but I haven't seen any.

    I snagged the small Batman vs Superman set (the one with the Bat Signal) for $6.99 the other night. Only had one left. 
  • CaptainRogersCaptainRogers Greensboro, NCMember Posts: 823
    @solid_strider has anyone you know found a K-2SO for clearance there?

    No, but the stores here had a ton of them before Christmas, so I was just kind of hoping they'd last until clearance time.  I had found one store with several of the FO Stormtroopers for $5 last summer/fall.
  • CaptainRogersCaptainRogers Greensboro, NCMember Posts: 823
    ^I found a few of those too! I will browse around for K-2SO.
  • JodyJody Eastern USAMember Posts: 104
    My Walgreens has Simpsons S2 still...for the bargain price of $5 each.

    Checked 4 stores around me!  only 1 store has a broken box one and it is 13.99.  so i guess it is YMMV.  

    besides one of my boy just bought 76044 as his existing superman mini figure head piece is too loose!

  • CaptainRogersCaptainRogers Greensboro, NCMember Posts: 823
    ^Thanks for the heads up - went by a Walgreens to make a return today and foind a K-2SO for $12.99. Half off is good for me!

  • elspankdogelspankdog TexasMember Posts: 403
    I found 3 K-2SOs today.  One store, had one marked at $24.99, another $18.79, but they all rang up at $12.99.  Found some Mixels for $2.59 and a #76044 - Clash of the Heroes for $3.59 as mentioned above.

  • CaptainRogersCaptainRogers Greensboro, NCMember Posts: 823
    Hope I can find a #76044 around.

    Found some Mixels Series 4 ($2.59 ea) and K2-SO and Trooper for ($12.99)
  • CaptainRogersCaptainRogers Greensboro, NCMember Posts: 823
    ^Same here, a few Models and Rogue One figures. Also sew a few Clash of the Hereos sets, but oddly enough they were only 25%-50% off.
  • KingAlanIKingAlanI Rochester, NYMember Posts: 2,115
    Mine has a few things at full retail - I rarely bother to check. Maybe when I'm in there anyway after Valentine's Day looking for cheap candy. I saw some S16 and/or TLBM last I was in there, and they had S14 for longer than other stores, all at $3.99
  • Switchfoot55Switchfoot55 The Northwest, USAMember Posts: 2,129
    Finally got to the nearest store today. Nothing on clearance. And a rather odd assortment of MSRP sets. They had a bunch of the Death Trooper sets, so I guess we'll see if they ever make it to a sale price.

    The store I first saw the Clash sets at now has the TFA X-Wing Microfighter for $6.49, or half off.  Not sure why their regular retail is $13 for that set, but I think something wonky is going on at that store.  They have the Marvel Legends GOTG figs for 50% off already.

    I saw that the other day.

    A dude had his gf and her friend tell him (via cellphone) what they had in stock.

    It was humorous: two young ladies, not familiar with the characters (having to describe them to him and vice-versa), crouching to find every single one in the shelving units.

    Good tips from all.  Went to one of my local Walgreens and found a #76044.  Shelf stated $16.99!!!  Decided to take it up to do a price check.  $3.59.  Bought it immediately and ran out of the store like I stole it.

    20 CMF S16, found 1 Rogue and no Babysitter
    They still have a damaged box #41010 Olivia's Beach Buggy from 2013. It's on the shelf with #41111 Party Train, itself getting old (76044 is also last year). I might bite on 41010 half off, and 41111 at 30% off.
  • GoldchainsGoldchains Member Posts: 795
    The closest Walgreens to me had no #76044 and a few Batman CMFs.  However, behind them, they still had some S14 CMF Monsters!  Craziness.
  • sa1sachicasa1sachica SoutheastMember Posts: 30
    I found 1 #76044 for $3.59 need to look for those monster CMF missing the mad scientist and the plant monster
  • KingAlanIKingAlanI Rochester, NYMember Posts: 2,115
    Now that I'm collecting LEGO music, I'm looking for Monster Rocker. Guitar should be easy to feel for. Packet weight 10.25g, I've started carrying my small scale as a matter of course in case an opportunity to search CMF's presents itself.

    #41111 Party Train $7.59 (20% off of $9.49)
    Not quite a good enough deal for parts.
    I lowered my BL prices on several parts from that set to be cautious when checking value.

    The only parts I want out of that are the bikes, and I got those via parts direct already.

    You mean Pick A Brick?
    Since I have a BL store, I can use all the parts.
    The bike *is* the main attraction, but also the animal figurines and minidoll, and I use minidolls for crowd scenes.

    I haven't gotten that lucky, but I did get some for $5 or $7 last year.

    #41111 back to $9.49 this week; I was hoping they'd go down further

    I need to go back and check the ones I hit up in February. Maybe they restocked...
