10% Off Sale, Stranger Things, and Mickey & Friends at the LEGO Store

This past week, I was asked by a friend to try and find a LEGO Stranger Things set. The timing was great, because I was planning on taking a trip to the LEGO Store anyways! Also on the agenda is to look for more Mickey and Friends sets to complete my collection. It was surprising to find a 10% off sale on LEGO sets with damaged boxes. I have never seen before! Let’s take a look at how the trip went!

There is a nice new LEGO Super Mario display up in the front window. As you might remember, I picked up LEGO 71360 Super Mario Adventures with Mario Starter Course and LEGO 71387 Super Mario Adventures with Luigi Starter Course on sale at my recent trip to Costco. The social distancing queue is still up due to COVID-19, however, did not require use because there were not that many people inside on a Monday afternoon.

In addition to trying to find the Stranger Things set, I was on the lookout for LEGO 10776 Mickey & Friends Fire Truck & Station and LEGO 10774 Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse’s Space Rocket. I wanted to complete my collection of the 5 sets in this new Disney subtheme released so far. Be sure not to miss our review of LEGO 10772 Mickey Mouse’s Propeller Plane! As you can see, both of these missing sets are here! They had a nice collection of Disney sets with both the castle and train & station in stock.

One of the great things about this LEGO store is that they have a permanent sale section! The discounts aren’t super large, but it is nice if you can find something that you want. I have found better sales on LEGO DOTS at Target.

Something I have never encountered before is this large table in the middle for LEGO sets that are 10% off. All of these boxes are damaged and are now marked as 10% off. After receiving damaged boxes in the mail from online purchases, it would be nice to get 10% off, wouldn’t it?

Here is a close up view of the sticker. These boxes are pretty beat up. A 10% off sale on LEGO is pretty substantial, especially on set like this which is several hundred dollars. I thought long and hard about picking this set up. I ultimately decided against it because I do like to collect the boxes as well.

Alright, it is finally time to look for what we came to the store to get, LEGO 75810 The Upside Down! There are actually about 4 to 5 in stock!

Couldn’t miss the opportunity to take some pictures of this amazing box before delivering it to my friend!

I am so glad I was able to find the Stranger Things set, but also the missing Mickey sets I wanted! The 10% off sale on damaged LEGO boxes was definitely a surprise bonus! I’ll have to see if this sale table is still around on my subsequent visits. Check out more of my LEGO trips and my hunt for sales and deals!
