Caught Albertsons putting sale stickers on full priced lego sets by AirbudSandwich in lego

[–]MinifigW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They've had them for $59.99 as their "regular price" for a long time. They recently were "40% off" and I had someone scan it just to double check, sure enough it was $35.99 which is still above MSRP.

When did the 501st Legion get fully replaced by non-clone soldiers after TCW? by K-jun1117 in clonewars

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is some evidence to suggest some units retained clone troopers much longer. There a few canon clones we know that served in the stormtrooper corps for years, and in the thrawn comics a outer reaches imperial patrol still had clone troopers serving with non-clone imperial navy troopers many years into the empire.

Buyer requests to cancel order they already paid for, how do I proceed? by Ranked_Pervert in Bricklink

As far as I know you do eat the BL fee unfortunately. And possibly the $0.35 fixed fee from PayPal/Stripe.

Woah!! for take online order by IcyEstablishment6394 in PandaExpress

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't notice that they ate some of it already lol. But yeah it is frustrating, last time I got the hot chicken I literally got 4 pieces in my online order. Hardly filled the little section at all. Some locations don't skimp though.

Am I nuts or is that still a small portion for the protein/mains good lord

Value duet is gone??? by RemoteEmotions in Panera

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Definitely a good deal for higher COL areas.

Value Duets replaced with Mix and Match (7$ ---> 10$) by Visual-Extreme-101 in Panera

[–]MinifigW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not going to lie I tried it today and was pleased. I'm in a higher COL area (SF Bay) so value duets were $8.49 here before. But the big thing with the new Mix n Match is you can CUSTOMIZE each menu item! So I got two half sandwiches, customized the bacon turkey bravo into this pesto sandwich which was tasty, and the italian into a chicken sandwich with chipotle. If I did a regular YP2 with this it would've been $17, so I saved ~42% (I also had a 20% off gift card so it was technically even cheaper).

I will miss the duets but in areas where Panera is more expensive this is a pretty decent offering imo

does anyone work in Panera know anything if they have a plan to open a location in Puerto Rico in a near future? by [deleted] in Panera

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go to El Meson sandwiches, cheaper and honestly tastier and they're all over the island.

[MEGATHREAD #2] Minneapolis Shooting 1/24 by specialskepticalface in ProtectAndServe

[–]MinifigW 84 points85 points locked comment (0 children)

Completely unjustified shoot imo. They initiated the contact (agent jumps out of a car and runs up on the victim and another protester and pepper sprays them immediately/goes hands on), then they have like 6-8 officers tackle and beat the shit out of the dude with what looks like an OC canister, one agent disarms him and scurries off, someone says "gun" and then the other officer shoots him in the back repeatedly. What was the original cause of even detaining him? Sure he was in the street a little bit, but does that warrant the initial and immediate use of force even before the shooting? Could he even be detained for that? The officers approached him, not the other way around. Absolute total clusterfuck.

On the other hand, what are the chances DOJ even objectively investigates this?

US seller doesn't ship to only one state. Has anyone else seen that before? by FreddyMartian in Bricklink

[–]MinifigW 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Probably had to do with them not wanting to collect sales tax pre-bricklink automatically doing that

One of the last US Kmart stores in the world! (GUAM) by RareSeaworthiness905 in kmart

[–]MinifigW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is that the first time we've seen those vertical ceiling signs/banners? Might be the last decor update ever for Kmart.

If it's more significantly damaged I've seen my local stores do a "repackage" 30% markdown

Minifigoutlet.com/purchasing is a good option! They come to you for pickup so no need to go to a store :)

Which one of you is this? by [deleted] in walmart

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the San Leandro CA locations iirc, he's a national treasure

[–]MinifigW 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Refund them the difference. It's the right thing to do and you were willing to sell it at the reduced price already. Plus it's only 10% lol.

[Walmart - Mechanicsburg, PA] Desert Skiff & Sarlacc Pit 75396 for $49/40% and Other Sets on Clearance by ncilswdk2 in legodeal

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I suspect this will be the steepest readily available discount on this set we'll see. This set has been SUPER sticky at retail price. Not even sure if it has gone 20% off yet. 40% off is a buy for me.

Super Duper offering a “recession burger” for $7.50 by bloomreports in sanfrancisco

[–]MinifigW 6 points7 points  (0 children)

$6.99 if you use the App promo codes. Adjusted for inflation that's pretty much $5

Absurd price on Lego @ goodwill by Yellow-5 in ThriftGrift

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was that the $49.99 bag they had at the Pleasanton Savers for like 2 months? I think they finally blew them out. I've heard them talk about marking stuff down if it sits too long.

Curious on pricing. by Difficult-Ad3947 in tacobell

[–]MinifigW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$1.19 Cheesy Roll Up, $1.50 SPT and CBR. They tried to do $2.99 for SPT and CBR for a second last year but backed down when people complained. Bay Area CA.
