    #41095 Emma's House for $15 at a Walmart. It's a 2015 set! Very little shelf wear on the box; I wonder where it's been hiding!

    I found the #42083 Bugatti Chiron for 250€ in a retail store last Monday. Couldn't resist buying it! The box however had a bit of shelf wear.

    I recently picked up The United States Capitol Building Architecture set on sale at Target for $50. I didn't realize what a deal I got until we got the set put together. It was my first architecture set and I love it.

    Ticked a few boxes off of my wanted list with the Walmart post-Christmas 50% off clearance...

    I found #75267 Mandalorian Battle Pack at West St. Paul Target. Three copies were hiding behind two rows of #75226 Inferno Squad Battle Pack. I don't know if they were hidden by someone hoping to buy them later, or by a store employee not paying attention (or not caring), but I took one and left the other two visible. Perhaps not the greatest find, but it made my day!

    Were they on sale, or were you just glad to have found them on the shelf at all?
  • 560Heliport560Heliport Member Posts: 4,244
    Full price, just happy to find them.

    Picked up a Super Star Destroyer and UCS Yoda plus both instructions for a whopping total of $475. Yoda is missing his necklace and two fingernails and as far as I could tell, the SSD was complete.

    Amazing deal on FB Marketplace today. About a week ago I spotted this listing, but when I messaged the seller they changed the listing to sold. Yesterday I was looking again and saw the same listing back so I messaged them again and picked it up today. Only $550 for everything below! The sets are extremely dusty, so I guess I have a couple of weeks of disassembly and cleaning ahead of me.

    Not the biggest brag, but in searching my local Walmart for the Mandalorian Battle Pack (there were none) I came across the 2019 Star Wars Advent calendar for $19. Needless to say, I grabbed one.

    ^ Wow our Walmart’s never have any deals close to that!! Nice!
  • dspigeldspigel Member Posts: 478
    I'm very jealous of that shrimp boat. It's still $24 at my Walmart.

    I just found that my local Wal-Mart was selling the new DC collectible minifigures for $3.44 apiece (MSRP $5). I bought a full box.

    Are these all sealed?

    Incredible either way. Well, unless they're just empty boxes...

    300 Euros for that much dog food might not be that bad of a deal... :-)

    Wow, well mine can’t possibly compare to such hauls for sealed sets in euros up above.  And I don’t usually look out for bulk deals, but just before Christmas a neighbor posted a Batman collection on our local community buy & sell.  All were built & with instructions, One neighbor just a bit quicker than I was managed to grab a smaller set.  I took the rest.  As more of an MCU fan, I hadn’t bought much Batman until this haul, though was planning on the 1989 batmobile & GWP once it came out by this time.  

    She wasn’t completely giving it away, but it was definitely priced in the realm of ‘kids used lego’ as opposed to ‘collectors item’.  I don’t even recall what I paid for all of it now, but it was about BrickLink price for one of the smaller sets.  We never did get them broken out to build with the grandson while he was here (the thought was that if we lost pieces building these, I’d be less worried than if they were ‘my’ sets) so they’re still sitting collecting our house dust to add on top of theirs.

    SO today’s goal, as one of about 3 directions I need to go with my collection today, is to break them down, ensure no missing pieces, & see what I’ve actually got here, and just see how good of a deal this might’ve turned out to be.  They’ll wind up in my collection for now, but can always be passed on to the grandsons if they get more into Batman & get a little older to actually play with these.  We tried a 4+ Spider-Man set, which was a hit, but we’re probably still in the Duplo stages yet.  LOL who knew the age ranges on the boxes aren’t completely random :D.

    Well, this certainly counts as one of my best deal finds to date - 2x #70835 at $30 each from Walmart. That's 75% off. Still in the shipping box even!

    I picked up most of a Friends #41105 - Pop star show stage at a second hand store for $3 CDN.  It is missing the figures and a couple of pieces but is 98% there otherwise.  It is actually an interesting build and I was surprised at the number of useful Technic elements that are in the set.   Some gears, axles, universal joints and other connectors plus a good assortment of Technic beams and 2xN plates with holes in them.

    ^^That sound like an awesome find!  It's the same feeling you get when when the weather gets colder and you dig out your fall/winter coat and find some forgotten cash in the pocket.
