Ayden Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 So at my local walmart the only HP Legos on sale are the dobbys release set, and Hogwarts castle. Everything else is in the regular Lego isle, and some extremely pointless "Unbeatable" isle, which is a bunch of random crap thrown into and isle at regular price. Anyways, my question is, Does anyone know when the rest of the previous years Legos tend to go on sale? I really wanna buy the knight bus and a few others, but not for full price.
CorneliusMurdock Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 I've moved this to BST&F since it's asking about sales. I saw the Knight bus at my local Meijer's clearance isle (Didn't buy it though. My budget's spread a little thin this year.) Maybe check some other stores in your area.
morganm Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I haven't figured out when they do it. I just swing by the clearance isles every time I stop by and hope to see something there. I've seen a few sets over the years but it's rarely anything I want. I guess that's why it's still there and now on clearance... nobody else wanted it that much either. =P

CorneliusMurdock Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I think it was 26 or 27. So not much of a clearance but definitely a little cheaper.
B-Lister Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 Found the Knight Bus for 25 this week. Make sure you're scanning the item, sometimes they do not mark the item as clearance, but it still rings up on sale.

I found the knight bus for $25 a few weeks ago. and I'm really kicking myself for not getting it at the time. =(
legomonk Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 I picked up 3 cars sets from walmart that had a pretty big discount on them. So I bet they will be soon.
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 From my experience with Walmart, chain-wide they have a ton of items on clearance starting Dec 26th and this runs until the items sell out. Individual stores may place items on clearance throughout the year but not at the post-Christmas 50% off.
Edmond Dantes Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Check your Walmart: Found these at 50% off: 4181-1: Isla de la Muerta 4182-1: The Cannibal Escape 4183-1: The Mill 4193-1: The London Escape 4195-1: Queen Anne's Revenge 4842-1: Hogwarts Castle 4866-1: The Knight Bus 7065-1: Alien Mothership 7931-1: T-6 Jedi Shuttle 7964-1: Republic Frigate 7965-1: Millennium Falcon And many, many more (Whitecap Bay, tons of city sets, more copies of the Mill, lots of Duplo, Creator sets, etc - those above are just the ones I purchased).
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) @ Edmond Dantes - Did you find these prices all in one store or did you find them at multiple Walmarts? *UPDATE* - So I checked a Walmart that's usually pretty well stocked and found the same SW, PotC and HP sets that you found on clearance but they weren't on clearance there. I got really excited when I saw the Republic Frigate and Millennium Falcon thinking I was about to make an awesome score. Unfortunately they scanned at regular price.

I found the Alien Mothership, Whitecap Bay, The London Escape and the T-6 shuttle at one Walmart and all the rest at a second Walmart. The two Walmarts did NOT have the same sets on clearance. It was very odd, but I did very well at the second.
