    They have to make their money with giving us a €10 for items over €100

    AFAIK Adverts is a commercial site. If people want to flip things, I don't think its against the rules anymore. Spoiling someone advert might be. Its not the old community site that it used to be.

    That’s a great price, annoyed I bought it for €150 from lego direct, didn’t expect it to appear in Smyths. I wish they had the modular buildings, the last one I remember in store was the pet shop. I see the Ghostbusters Firehouse HQ is at €299.99, a decent saving of €60, and the Silent Mary and Snowspeeder are €165 each too.

    Smyths have loads of specials on their Lego sets.
    Most notably the death star for 365 and another 12 off a 100 spend, so 353.

    Any Star Wars fan Owes it to themselves to own and display this set. It’s fantastic, and so much playability for someone of any age too. ;) I made a stop motion short movie using it when I got it when it was originally released 8 or 9 years ago (it’s gotten over 4 million views too!). :)

    You can avail of €12 off a spend of €100 or more, so yeah if you’re buying the Death Star, make sure to use the offer and you’d get it for €353 (I think they’d take it off at the till anyway but no harm to ask just in case, or add the code at the checkout if you’re buying online). And the Snowspeeder would be €153 with these discount. If you’re buying multiple items, make separate transactions to maximise savings.

    Can you though? Are you sure they’re not a one use voucher and will scan again?

    I’m very certain, I’ve availed of similar offers instore at Smyths in the recent past and the staff were happy to take several transactions to allow me to save money on each one. The offer is valid instore and on click-and-collect orders, it doesn’t apply to online delivery purchases as far as I know.

    Hi Folks,
    Im on the looking out for EV3 for xmas and considering a purchase if there are any deals on Black Friday or Cyber Monday. I have come across it in Eason's for 265euro which seems pretty good to me.

    Anyone else got any suggestion on where to look or see any deals on it.

    Thanks

    Ordered it last night, delighted to save €30 off it because it and Assembly Square were the only modulars I had left to get.

    The Death Star is the daily deal for Friday, for €399 (the price the original version used to be...), but for those who missed the Smyths offer of €350, it’s a good opportunity to get it and get €20 worth of VIP points too to spend next time.

    Yeah I got the cinema a while back for feck all as well with VIP points and I had another tenner off the brick bank.
    Another Christmas set too with the nutcracker! Which is great because I'm not mad impressed with the winter train station.

    BB8 is at the all time low price on Amazon.co.uk (£60), you get free shipping to Ireland anyway so rounded up at about 70euro which is still the best RRP.

    Spotted that earlier and now annoyed that I used my VIP points on it a few weeks ago. Should have saved them for the Brick Bank. Grrr.
