BoobyToy Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 So I stop at my local Meijer store a few weeks ago and I find (3) opened boxes of Series 3 by the Christmas Stocking Stuffers display area. I manage to get 7 Elfs, a few baseball players and a few Fishermans. I notice they have small sign saying Clone Walker Battle packs on sale at $9.00 a box till the end of the month. So i'm thinking that thats a good price and maybe I'll pick some up later. Well a couple of days ago, there store flyer in the paper has a coupon for 10% off of purchases over fifty dollars. So I stop by and theres no more series 3 but I do pick up (10) battle packs thinking there only gonna cost $8.10 a piece after the discount. Well Imagine my surprise when they ring up @ $5.00 a box (thats $4.50 each) after the discount. So I have the cashier hold on to my purchase and I go back and grab the last (12) that they had. I had a store clerk look in back but he couldn't find anymore. Well today I stopped again and couldn't find any Series 3 and the sign for the battle packs were gone. So I walked over to the lego section and find (8) more Clone packs mixed in with the newer packs (which are on sale for $10.77) and i also find (4) Droid packs. So I find a scanner and both are scanning at $5.00! So as I'm leaving with my find I find another row of toys in an obscure aisle (were there summer cook out stuff is usually kept) and lo and behold, (4) opened boxes of series 3! So I wound up snagging quite of bit of Elfs, Fishermans and Baseball players So if your near a Meijers, check the prices on those Battle Packs and hopefully you'll find some $1.99 Series 3 packs too.

TheWarden Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Good lord, you must be an army builder. I never understand you guys, but each to their vice. Thanks for the info, I'll have a look at the parts list. I imagine the Assassin Droid BP are / were on sale as well? They are the pair.
-JD- Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Why don't beautiful things like this happen in the UK?! Congrats anyway! So you got 20 Clone BPs, which makes... 60 Clones and 20 Gunners!

Thanks for the info, I'll have a look at the parts list. I imagine the Assassin Droid BP are / were on sale as well? They are the pair. Yes, the Assasin Droid BP were ringing up at $5.00 also (I actually stated that both scanned at %5.00 in my post). Talking with other members on bricklink, they were actually on clearance. Lego Shop at Home is actually sold out as of now. And I'm not actually an army builder, I'm more into city. Check out my 'City in progress video on Youtube.
