October Double VIP Points

Every year, Lego has a promotion in October for double VIP points on purchases from the Lego Store and online and such. This year is no different... except instead of lasting for the full month, it's only lasting the first FOUR days.

 

So I guess they felt they were too generous with their promotion earlier, so they had to reaaaaaally cut down the timeframe for it. (I guess losing 10% to crazy AFOLs who spend like crazy all month must've hurt their sales too much?) Plus, now it doesn't coinside with any of their other October promotions. But I guess they are doing the double VIP point deal at other times of the year more often now, so it might seem natural that october loses it for the full month.

 

Luckily, those four days fall on BrickCon, so we won't be skipping our regular trips to the Lynnwood or Bellevue Lego Stores. I hope they still have the Ninjago temple set by then...

I'm definitely going to take advantage of the double points during those days. While there aren't too many sets left on my wish list for this year, what I do have left to purchase mostly consists of expensive Ninjago and Elves sets, so the double points will help to take some of the bite out of that.

WAMALUG is just waiting for LEGO to do some big event/discount day on a LUG meeting day, but so far they've wised up and haven't done anything on the second Saturday of a month in a long time.

Last I remember, there was a DK Star Wars book release party one weekend, and the LUG meeting was just a few miles away from the LEGO Store, so we went to the mall for lunch and the event. I got a Chrome Darth Vader out of it!
