What did you buy today?

Recommended Posts

Ordered many many bricks on Bricklink for the Tumbler set and my first MOC :) *fidgets* Can't wait to start!

And I'll have to make use of the free PAB bucket offer this month!

Can someone please enlighten me on the "Free PAB bucket offer"? There is a chance that we're traveling out of state for a brief trip in a few days and if we go, we may get to go to the Lego store!

I had to go to Oberhausen today (again) and couldn't resist it..

He he... I also visited the Lego shop in Oberhausen today. :laugh:

I bought the Maersk train (including a free PaB-cup) and 6 custom Minifigs.

I also bought 7 Collectable Minifigs (6 from the 2nd series, and 1 from the third) at Kaufhof.

In germany we'll get a free PaB-cup if we spend at least 50€ at a Lego shop this month. I'm not sure if this offer takes place in other countries, too.

So far as I know, it's not valid here in the US.

Actually I got a free pick a brick cup today (in the US) with the purchase of the Maersk Train. I think the minimum purchase is $75 for the free cup. If you check the April Lego calendar it has the details.

Look at the bottom right circle promotion.

Really? I had looked at one and I was pretty sure it didn't have anything about that. I'll have to look again...

Just now, I bought my 3rd 4755 Knight Bus set off of eBay for a total of £14.45 including p&p. Earlier this morning I bought a S4 Mad Scientist minifigure from Tesco and I also bought 4 copies of the Beano magazine released today that contains a sticker sheet with stickers of 12 of the 16 S4 minifigure, a 16 page mini magazine about the S4 minifigures and 1 S4 minifigure packet. The magazines cost £2.50 each. :thumbup:

*checks article and passes out*

75 bucks? YIKES! I'm NOT going for that offer. Last time I went, I only dropped about 45 bucks including a PAB large cup.

While out shopping w/ my mom at walmart, I found a lego Alantis Exploration HQ(8077) on sale for 15 dollars! Orginal price 50 bucks! I'm building it now. I'm about to start step 20 on book 2.

EDIT: Well, I just finished it and all I can say is WOW! The set was worth every penny.

Went to Legoland Windsor today so 'had' to buy a couple of bits

10211 - Grand Emporium

5766 - Log Cabin

110g of Pick a Brick (Mainly 2x4 Lime Green Bricks for my Series3 display stand, There would have been the same again in orange but they only had 5 bricks so I just got those)

852676 - 9in1 Multi game pack reduced to £9.99

2x Legoland Annual passes :classic: They get you 20% off in the resteraunts and 10% off in the shops, unfortunatelly not off any 'hard to find' sets (numbers 10***) so had to pay full price for the Emporium :angry:

The annual passes we got with our Tescos vouchers so were not to expensive at all!

I asked my Dad for the Lego Fire station for christmas 1986, but he got me the Hospital instead because he was a paramedic!

Well today,,, 25 years later I bought it! Not the 80's one, but the latest one. Nice set with some great parts and great decals (especially the TV) :grin:

Try & track Fire House I down, it's an excellent set, so much so I had one new & it was one of the first sets I repurchased when leaving my dark age! So much better than the ones released since :thumbup:

Today I bought 2 white & black Lego cows

Today I bought six Series 2 minifigures (Lifeguard, Pharoah, Mexican, Surfer, Mime, Disco Stu) at this little toy store I found while I was in town. It's called The Learning Express, and it still had plenty of Series 2 in addition to Series 3 and 4. The rest of their LEGOs are a bit pricey, but the minifigures are at three dollars. :thumbup:

Today I finally broke down and ordered a Prince Zuko head and armor (among other parts) from bricklink. The head was $20, but I figured that I wouldn't get much of a better deal anywhere.

So many Avatar MOC possibilities are opening up now! :cry_happy:

Well the loving wife bought me all the series 4 minifigs (except the viking and hockey player) 2 banana tree games she found on sale and 2 windmill transport sets that we wanted for extra windmills. They seem to be a hit at the local shows as we now have a wind farm 1 hour to the west and 1 hour to the east

Here's what I got yesterday:

PAB minifigure bin - one lego series 1 clown w/ a blue hat for the 5th piece, one lego series 1 magican w/ top hat for 5th piece, and a mermaid tail and top w/ a Cheerleader series 1 head and hair and a forestman hat(minus feather) for the 5th piece

One lego Cup(large)

3 lego series 4 figures(Artist, Werewolf, and surfer girl). All I can say about the store is WOW. I was trying to locate any of those 3 by the feel method. Except for what I assume was the kimono girl dress bottom, I couldn't tell one thing from the other. The man working there saw me having trouble and he helped. He pulled out a big handfull and found all 3 like it was nothing. I wasn't sure if it was right until this morning when I opened but he was 3 for 3.

Then I decided to go for a couple random series 3. I got a sumo wrestler and a tennis gal.

And I finished off w/ one lego easter basket. Mom also gave me the money to pick up a hagrid key chain for her.

Got the Atlantis Angler Attack. One of the best $20 sets I've seen, and the only Atlantis set that has completely satisfied me. You get an awesome creature, one of the best minifigs ever (the Barracuda Warrior) and a TON of useful pieces when you get tired of displaying the Angler. Amazing value IMO.

I got 4 Castle 5615 for less than $1 each, quite a bargain! I already regret not buying all they had... think they had 3-4 more of them.

Star Wars Brickmaster book, Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (which so far doesn't run - Ahhrgrrhrg...) and, after much feeling and squeezing, a Series 4 minifg which turned out to indeed be a Hazmat Guy.
