Yay Black Friday! Shop.Lego.com actually has some okay deals, especially with free shipping on any purchase. I'm too cheap to get the exclusive sets and all, but I'm all for grabbing a couple of the smaller stuff at 50% off. So I grabbed the Magic Tricks Friends set, Fox Speedorz set, and Skunk Speedorz set. Yayz, should be in the mail soon.
Also, I've hinted at it, but I'll just come right out and say that I did indeed pick up some 2014 Ninjago sets. Fred Meyers appeared to have released them early, and Pat (DeVee) clued me in. (They're actually only in the Oregon stores, so I visited the one closest to my train station, which coincidentally happened to be the exact store that Pat went to.) Best of all, they had some of the prices wrong in our favor... the $12 was just $10, and the $60 one was $50. I first bought Zane's plane ($50 instead of $60) but the 10% off coupon I brought had expired so I didn't get a further discount. But then the other day I went back and they had Kai's Plane, plus a 25% off toys coupon, and I had an additional $2 off toys coupon... so I saved 35% on that set. (Sadly, it was the accurate price.) They had some Hobbit sets too... emphesis on had. But then i checked my local Washington store and there was the Laketown set... so if you want Hobbit or Ninjago stuff (and, y'know, live in Washington, Oregon, or Idaho... or a few locations in Alaska) check out your Fred Meyers.
I probably shouldn't be going on a Lego buying binge, since I just started working and do kind of need to save up for other stuff. But golly, I just can't help taking advantage of some good deals!
I'm also working on Black Friday, but it's totally not in retail so the office is just kind of laid back, and I feel sorry for all the folks who were forced to work insane hours today and yesterday. I hope y'all got some serious dough for your efforts!!
