iluvmyelement Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Green Grocer is discounted to $112.49 ea (normally $149) when you buy 3 or more at Lego S@H (or just one Green Grocer if you buy 2 other items in the sale category - Loot Island or the Single Drum Roller). To get the 25% off you have to buy at least 3 items from the page. http://shop.lego.com/SalesAndDeals/ViewAll...?GroupCode=0012 It's hard to beat this price - especially for the number of pieces this set has. And the Lego Beach house is $26.50 at Amazon (probably won't last long - the price drops are usually short periods of time) http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-4517443-LEGO%C2.../dp/B000WO0E4G/

The total for the three comes up to $149.97. So basically Loot Island and the Drum roller are free. Plus you qualify for the "free" Atlantis shark keychain!
Captain Green Hair Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 This should be in the buy, sell and trade forum, topic moved.
quietworkshop Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 You have just rid me of $386.70 usd...thanks! I needed that! Really
iluvmyelement Posted January 3, 2010 Author Posted January 3, 2010 You have just rid me of $386.70 usd...thanks! I needed that! Really If it makes you feel any better - I rid myself of more than that. (There are so many great pieces in the Green Grocer that I had to order several because it ends up being cheaper than buying 1/2 the pieces used on Bricklink) Looks like the Beach House is back up over $28 now. I set pricewatchers on several sets using NukePrice so that I'll be notified automatically when the price drops (and I'll post here when they drop).
Dadster Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Dang - I want that GG badly, but just can't justify the money right now... Thanks for the heads-up though!

iluvmyelement Posted January 4, 2010 Author Posted January 4, 2010 How long is this sale good for? Looks like the Amazon sale already ended. I expect that the Lego S@H sale will end this week (or if stock depletes too quickly). The Green Grocer deal is being discussed in great length on a deal forum with heavy traffic so it's possible with this kind of visibility, GG could sell out. They talked about the VW Bug deal just before the Green Grocer sale - and the bug sold out completely within 3 days.
d00dz Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 They talked about the VW Bug deal just before the Green Grocer sale - and the bug sold out completely within 3 days. What was the VW deal?

(There are so many great pieces in the Green Grocer that I had to order several because it ends up being cheaper than buying 1/2 the pieces used on Bricklink) It made me feel a little better...until I called today and changed my order to include...four. So that's $512.50. I agree that the price to piece ratio is excellent for what you get; at $112.50, you get 2352 pieces, which amounts to something like .0478¢ per piece. That's four cents!
iluvmyelement Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 What was the VW deal? I think it was normally around $120 MSRP and was at the end of it's run. It was posted on the deal site for a day or two and sold out quickly. Copied from deal site: Add quantity of 3 or more to your cart of the Volkswagen Beetle and viola! The price drops for the Volkswagen Beetle to $67. Add coupon BSCV29 (thanks elsnema) and the price then goes to $65 each, plus shipping! Volkswagen Beetle Item No: 10187 Available Now USD 65.82 It made me feel a little better...until I called today and changed my order to include...four. So that's $512.50.

Don't tempt me to do the same......the more I think about it the more I want to order more

Sooo hard to find them in store. Dont temp me to buy more green grocers too. I already ordered 3 shipped to my shipto address then hopefully it will be sent to me here in Sydney
slimninj4 Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Followed the link and it looks like the GG is 150$. anyone else confirm this?
iluvmyelement Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 Followed the link and it looks like the GG is 150$. anyone else confirm this? You have to have 3 of those items on that sale page (any combination) in your cart for the discount to show. If you wanted 3 GG, change the quantity in the cart and the discount will show.
d00dz Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Looks like this special has ended. Shoulda bought more. Oh well. 3 is enough. :)
