Lego sale

Lucas recently started his craze on Lego and since there is a sale, why not go shopping?!!

When we reach united square, it was 90% empty. Left with some not popular ones like Atlantis, Indiana jones, toy story, ben ten, etc.

While I had to grab the standard Lego sets to increase the number of bricks for him (375 pcs!). Then saw the toy story box (grabbed), Thomas the train (grabbed) and hubby darling bought Lucas two boxes of ben 10 Lego that can be combined to transformed into a different alien (grabbed)!





We contemplated over buying Atlantis which have a lighted brick but is rather complicated thus after discussions, we felt that Lucas is still not of the right age to play with it yet.





Hubby also contemplated to buy the entire series of ben 10 but honestly is a freak if Lucas dissembles them all and not fixed it back so we only bought two boxes.





There was this Lego standing board which I had wanted to get from the staff but they say that the Lego in charged went out for lunch and they need to ask him. When we came back, I saw this young man secretly putting it in the bottom of the bag and I told him that is what I had wanted to ask from the staff but is waiting for the Lego in charge but the young man rebuked me saying "no? What?"

Anyway I told the staff about I wished to ask for it but they say the Lego in charge says no. Then I said but the guy took it and they told me "then that is theft!"






Well I guessed theft is allowed but properly asking is not allowed then. :(




Whatever... At least we got what we need. ;) pain in the pocket? $120 for five boxes. Nothing 55% off but rather the best we could see by then was 40% off. Good enough! Yeah!
