I Scream Clone Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 Double Post (screw it): Alright, fess up. Which one of you was it? I don't follow exactly what you are asking? Are you trying to figure out who was at Kmart with me?
Strand Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 I don't follow exactly what you are asking?Are you trying to figure out who was at Kmart with me? Yep! If that person got a tip-off, chances are they're either a EB poster, or a lurker. Same thing happened at the CW midnight launch, I met this dude grabbing some lego sets and he was a EB and FBTB member (didn't give me a screen name though)

Same thing happened at the CW midnight launch, I met this dude grabbing some lego sets and he was a EB and FBTB member (didn't give me a screen name though) if you met me, i wouldn't tell you my screen-name either. lol Actually that's not right,if I remember it was 300 during the big July sale, after they put it up to 450, so at 150 it would be 75% off. we know 450 is the inflated-to-make-the-sale-look-good price. 300 is the more reasonable price. though i should have waited or used layby. i got one then at 300. it's quite odd with the drastic price cut so early. they must have tons in stock. even the at-at didn't reach this % until mar/apr of this year. Huge props to TheDarkness for finding this one. agreed! mad props to darkness for finding the deal of the year! <-- 2 thumbs up...
MicroM Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 KMart's Briktober sale this week has: - CW Tank Droid $30 - Hoth Base $30 - Assasian Droid pack $15 - midi Falcon $44 Some not bad deals..............though nothing like the AT-OT. You've got to wonder if you had that on laybuy for $300 (or $350 - as they were in the first few days) wouldn't you just cancel it and get it for $170. I've noticed in the Hasbro SW stuff they've done something similar with the Turbo Tank - it was $300 (and was released at the Toy sale), now its on clearance for $130.

With all these clearance items leading up to Xmas... it makes me wonder what's going to be on for clearance on Shop@Home website this year. Last year, I think they had the MTT Trade Federation on sale. That was awesome! Anyone got any hunches?

Another one?!, Well I guess it is Bricktober. I'll add these to the first page.. $30 seems good for the Hoth base but didn't BigW have for $28 recently?

I'll add these to the first page.. $30 seems good for the Hoth base but didn't BigW have for $28 recently? Wow awesome! I got the Echo from Target for 32$ And $30 for the Tank sounds perfect! But I don't have a K-mart anywhere near me mmm...what to do...
DarthSion Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 we know 450 is the inflated-to-make-the-sale-look-good price. 300 is the more reasonable price. though i should have waited or used layby. i got one then at 300. it's quite odd with the drastic price cut so early. they must have tons in stock. even the at-at didn't reach this % until mar/apr of this year. Ha yeah but still it was 450 so it is 75% off, yeah never been so glad to be broke in my life, one thing your forgetting, when the AT-AT was released the world wasnt in a recession, that's why the extra price drop, and why so many sales this year, if people wont pay full price, better to have a sale and make some money then none at full price. Besides, my best friends wife works at Kmart, she said everything is at least 200% mark up, the majority its 300%.
Svelte Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Well, I'm pleased to announce I won a K9 Impulse Bot during Bricktober I didn't even print the PDF, I just entered the receipt number and had a surprise in the letterbox (crushed, of course, but at least it was free ) I was less thrilled yesterday when I received an email copying in what looked like everyone's address who'd ever registered on the site. Looks like someone at K-Mart doesn't know what a Blind Carbon Copy is

Svelte Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Email or home addresses? Email! I'd be changing the locks if it was my home address, fending off avaricious AFOLs!
natelite Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 damn... i bought the at-ots on a single receipt. need 2 seperate receipt to join the bricktober game.
MicroM Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 damn... i bought the at-ots on a single receipt. need 2 seperate receipt to join the bricktober game. Yeah me too. Though with one receipt you still get a chance for the instant prize, just need to print out the form and go and "de-code".
natelite Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Yeah me too. Though with one receipt you still get a chance for the instant prize, just need to print out the form and go and "de-code". nah, you don't need to decode. just enter the claim code no in the claim your prize section and if it shows error you know you didn't win.
I Scream Clone Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 nah, you don't need to decode. just enter the claim code no in the claim your prize section and if it shows error you know you didn't win. Not to mention if you tilt the decoder print out down you can make out the words "try again", at least on mine anyway
Whittleberry Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 I signed up at the bricktober website but haven't received any emails from it. Anyway, does anyone know where the minifig plushes are at Kmart? I looked at both the LEGO section and soft toy section in the giant Kmart in Burwood East and couldn't find anything.

I looked at both the LEGO section and soft toy section in the giant Kmart in Burwood East and couldn't find anything. I didn't get an email either. As for the plushies I noticed they were at the front of my local store, but they were all gone on that first day!!
TheDarkness Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 The plushies here were in with the soft toys. They looked a bit ordinary IMO
TheDarkness Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 nah, you don't need to decode. just enter the claim code no in the claim your prize section and if it shows error you know you didn't win. Is that the "your receipt no. doesn't match your pdf code" error?
I Scream Clone Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Is that the "your receipt no. doesn't match your pdf code" error? Well if it helps, that is the same code I got, so maybe it is what natelite was alluding too?
TheDarkness Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Well if it helps, that is the same code I got, so maybe it is what natelite was alluding too? Ahh excellent. We don't have a decoder here that I have seen, so the error code was irritating me
DarthSion Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Ok I must have missed something, what is bricktober, and what is a plushie.
I Scream Clone Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 Ok I must have missed something, what is bricktober, and what is a plushie. Spend two lots of $20 at Kmart, enter your two reciept numbers on bricktober.com.au, then you could win a trip for 4 to Legoland California. Also each docket can earn you bonus free stuff like key rings up to big sets. So get moving man!
