    Excellent NT, thanks for that - I'd been holding off on pulling the trigger on the Volvo, but not any more :)

    It actually works out a little cheaper if you can get to a Smyths. They have it at €215 with 20% off this weekend and you would be supporting Irish jobs and all that.

    True, about €6 in the difference, but theres no Smyths near to me, as the offer is in-store only :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭syboit


    20% off is in full swing at smyths, place is mental.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Is there a Super Star Destroyer left in any Smyths around the country? It's no longer on the website.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,515 ✭✭✭NinjaTruncs


    One in Carrickmines earlier, I think it was 440.

    One in Limerick also.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Hmm. Would be tempted to take a drive to Limerick; with the sale on it brings it to €336 by my calculation. I have oogled it for years but could never take the plunge, too many other things taking up wallet space.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,515 ✭✭✭NinjaTruncs


    Smyths in tallaght have the Super Star Destroyer for 400 or 320 with 20‰ off.

    One thing to watch for in Smyths, if the box has a reduced price sticker on it you should get the 20% off the lowest price on the box but some of the items are scanning in at the higher price. If you are getting a few things you mightn't notice it, it happened to me twice in the last two days on lego purchases (I didn't notice it until we got home). They are very quick to refund the difference though once you point it out to them with your receipt etc.

    Got the Star Wars Ewok Village 10236 for €191, from the 20% sale in Smyths /ken blacks. Very pleased with that. Thanks for the heads up here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 Cathal Healy


    Picked up the Sea Cow in Claremorris for €176. It's a stunning set but very very difficult. A lot of brown and dark brown, grey, dark grey and black but it looks wonderful.

    Got the Volvo for my father for Christmas too and my brother picked up the Simpsons house.

    On the smyths website, all the big ticket lego set are the "top sellers"

    3 for 2 on toys in Argos, including Lego. Some of the larger ones I checked are on parity with Amazon prices, but finding the right store-stock ratio might be difficult on the kits you want though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    Smyths have 20% off some of their super heroes sets, not sure which ones are on offer though.

    I'll be in Maylor Street later so can confirm. It'd be a pain if it wasn't the same price though.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Just a heads up on the double VIP points on Lego.com - later in the month it is expected that they will add a promotional set to the mix along with the added points: http://brickset.com/sets/40106-1

    A good complement to the new Winter Village set.

    City Cargo Train set is incredible value but it's not in stock locally. Great looking set but €180 was always a little steep for me

    Yeah I checked about 10 other stores and couldn't find it in stock in any.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭Hunterbiker

    I sent them an email re restocking so fingers crossed.
    (No reason it should but...) It is not discounted on argo.co.uk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,234 ✭✭✭Mr Bloat


    Benny's Spaceship is reduced to €67 in Debenhams. It shows up as out of stock on the website but there are a couple left in Merchants Quay, Cork.

    It's currently on Amazon for £100 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00I4IYJ6Q/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=bargainwatch-21&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=B00I4IYJ6Q should work out the same or a little cheaper that Argos. I doubt it'll last long at that price

    I actually seen this over on the bargain alerts forum but thought it might be worth posting here too. There's 20% sale on toys on the littlewoods ireland website. Can't post the link as I don't have enough posts yet.

    Get another 15% of when you use this code 43VN7

    I ordered the volvo technic truck for 142 euro including delivery which is the best I've seen it anywhere.

    At the moment it says there's still stock

    Edit: Just checked the website again. It looks like the sale is over. I think the 15% code should still work though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 Cathal Healy


    wow, that's a bargain. Picked up the Volvo truck in the Smyths sale for €165 odd.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭Hunterbiker


    The code on Littlewoods is still valid for a 15% discount.


  • Registered Users Posts: 49 Cathal Healy


    The AT-AT is €109.00 + code, makes it a great price.

    Cargo train set would have cost about €116 on sale with code which would have been a massive discount.

    Have it reserved currently with Argos for €130

    For any Cork-based folk, Tesco in Mahon Point are having a decent clearance. I got MetalBeard's Duel for €17 and the Melting Room for €8. There was a load of stuff left that I didn't grab, such as 76004 for around €9, 76019 for €12.49, some Star Wars (mostly the microfighters and battle packs), City, and a bunch more TLM.


  • Registered Users Posts: 320 ✭✭Interrobang


    Just picked up a rake of stuff in Mahon too. Most LEGO reduced by up to 50% in Tesco stores from today. I used the same offer last year to stock up for Christmas and birthdays throughout the year (and used the savings to justify more LEGO for me! :-D)
