Andy D Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Does anyone know if LEGOland CA is having their annual BrickTOBER event this year? I am sure they will have the decorations and Brick-or-Treating, but I am wondering about their usual sale day for Merlin members. I have not received my coupon / notification of the day yet. I thought the flyer came earlier than this in previous years. Anybody got their flyer / coupon yet? I will either buy my annual stock-up doing double points at the LEGO Store, or LEGOland or a combination of both. I need to plan my shopping trip. Thanks Andy D Quote
Andy D Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Out of the 172 views of this thread... Is there anyone who is a Merlin member for LEGOland So. Cal? If you are a member, have you also received (or not) any info about the October events at LEGOland So. Cal? Do you usually stock-up during the October LEGOland event? I just want to know I am not alone here. Can a Merlin member for So. Cal. LEGOland Speak up? Thanks, Andy D Quote
Sisilisko Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Andy. I checked the website. It doesn't say. I will be going to Legoland in Carlsbad someone time in the first or third week of October. I will ask them and post here then. Why don't you email/phone Legoland? You find the contacts on their web. I wasn't able to copy it. Quote

I wasn't able to copy it. Yeah, I have also checked the website too. They normally post about he Bricktober events and decorations, (as they have this year) but not about the Member discount day, this is normally on a communication just sent to Merlin Members. I will probably be going October 12, that is usually the weekend of the member sale. I've been putting off calling, but you are correct, I may just have to call. I have been hesitating calling because it frequently just takes so much "phone tag" to get to the person with the answer. I was just hoping someone had received the flyer.

Herky Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 I know when I was there last December they would not let me use VIP card at LegoLand since it is not owned by TLG, so if you mean the double points, go to the Lego Store or online. Quote

I know about the double points through LEGO stores and on-line, I usually buy quite a bit then, and my wife and I also usually buy a bunch (about $300) for a toy donation program where we work. The LEGOland sale is for Merlin Members, not VIP. As you posted, they do not accept VIP at LEGOland, but you normally get a 10% discount with a Merlin Membership, and double on one special day in October. I am trying to find when is the special day in October this year. also in the past you had to have a coupon that was in the flyer mailed to Merlin Members for the special discount. I usually do my annual stock-up during the double VIP points with LEGO stores and discount day at LEGOland, then just a few sets during the year. Thanks anyway.

Sisilisko Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 How can I become a Merlin member? (Google is my friend...) It seems good cause I plan to stock up. Ah. http://california.legoland.com/en/tickets/Membership_/ Not for me. Quote

Ah. http://california.legoland.com/en/tickets/Membership_/ Not for me. You have to go to a LEGOland 3 to 4 times per year to make a membership make sense. Most of us get the membership because we enjoy LEGOland, not just for merch discounts. The merch discounts are just an extra benefit (to me). Andy D Edited September 18, 2013 by Andy D Quote
Sisilisko Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 I see. This will be my first visit in say... 30 years, as an Afol. It will be a blast even without the discount. Quote
Andy D Posted September 19, 2013 Author Posted September 19, 2013 Whoops! I got the Brick-or-Treat mailer today. The discount coupon is for a week in December, not October. Well, I guess I will just have to do my stock-up during the double points in October. Maybe buy so other sets in December if something else new comes out that I have to have. Sisiliko. -- Have a great time! Andy D Quote
