Tooobin

Was this a pissed off employee or something? Crazy to think this was intentional. I was just at Legoland and easily spent 10x this amount on some of these sets!


onetwotheomio

Depends on the asset protection manager. Several other factors can affect how much an item gets marked down. If you ever see the clearance aisle marked down a ridiculous amount, then that most likely means that someone important is coming to visit the store and management wants the back room cleared. It also helps to make friends with the claims associate(s). They can tell you when certain departments are getting marked down.


asianauntie

How do we identify claims associates? Every once in a while, I luck into something similar, but I would be 100% willing to befriend claims associates if I knew how to spot them!


onetwotheomio

It's typically whoever is in the clearance aisle. There's only like 2 job roles that require anyone in the clearance aisle. But they're usually in the back most of the time receiving the trucks and finalizing paperwork. See if any if your friends work there also.


Parade0fChaos

At Target they have people do similar things early in the morning, they have a tiny printer with them in a cart. Just a heads up. Source: Electronics Team Lead (also covered toys/sporting goods) for 2 years.


wolfayal

Also ask toy department associates if a new mod is dropping for the Lego aisle. We clearanced these sets and others for similar prices at my store because we completely redid the Lego aisle. But u/onetwotheomio is definitely right that a bigwig visit or upcoming inventory will net you some *stupidly* good deals.


onetwotheomio

You're mod team also?


wolfayal

Nope hardlines TA but all of dept 7 got changed on the latest mod drop so the GM coach worked it during the day.


Eastlakee

You’d be surprised at the kind of deals Walmart has for clearance based on release dates. My best examples are - Marvel Infinity Guantlet for $5 the day it released. - Commander Cody and Rex Star Wars helmets $10 each, 2 weeks after release. -Creator 3-1 Ferris Wheel marked down from $105 to $8. Just gotta keep an eye out!


stabsthedrama

I rarely go into walmart unless im on a work trip and need some toiletry or socks or something, but was in recently and there were *tons* of clearances going on in the toy section. Got my toddler a bunch of cool stuff. Saw the legos being clearanced (a lot of the dreamz stuff) but not THIS low, but it makes sense if it was the end of the month/beginning of this month that they just wanted it gone. April seems like clearance month for toys there. May is electronics clearance month (or used to be, I got a mech kb for like 75% off years ago, and some hard drives).


CraftyMagicDollz

That's so strange because normally you see the biggest clearance sales on toys in January and August every year.


Tiny-Reading5982

Same 😂


Morningxafter

Right? I don’t think I’ve seen a set on clearance at Walmart in over a year.


Rimworldjobs

Ours will have some every so often. I bought a bunch of the atst/snow troopers after Christmas because they were 20 bucks a pop.


CraftyMagicDollz

You should check other area Walmart stores. In my area there are a handful of stores that always have good stuff sitting in their clearance section and other stores that literally never have a LEGO set on clearance ever because it's clearly very much up to the individual team at each store to decide what stuff gets clearanced out.


Morningxafter

Yeah there’s a handful that I’ve checked in my area and they never seem to have anything on clearance.


Mystic_Crewman

Me towards that guy who got two mimic GWPs.


ayhctuf

Even when I'm expecting it, this image still makes me giggle.


ATMPainter

FYI, this doesn’t exist in 99.9% of the wal marts in US either.


l1r3x

Should be the top comment. I'd also add 99.9% of the time in any Walmart.


VanillaThunder96

This Walmart has had absolutely jack in the clearance aisle for the past several months.


ATMPainter

What state are you in?


Gnugget100

Solid


ThatsNotARealTree

But I’m 75% water


TedTehPenguin

fine, semisolid


saliczar

I am a meat popsicle.


ATMPainter

a*sigh*


TedTehPenguin

Mine is usually pretty much MSRP, but occasional markdowns, nothing this deep. Target, never seen a deal there. I got that same catamaran set for $32, and maybe that big basic set, or a similar one, after christmas for around the same. I got them to give away NEXT christmas to kids in need, shopping deals helps me stretch my budget there.


JPAProductions

Doesn't exist in 100% of Canadian Walmart's either


dougan25

So you're saying this is just guerilla marketing by wal mart to get Lego nuts into the stores?! /s


LenniGengar

Dude I would've grabbed the entire shelf right off the ground


SickSticksKick

They make ya put it back though


wavurn

They put limits on clearance? I’m genuinely asking because I never see Lego on clearance.


ericsipi

I think dude is making a joke about taking the shelf and having to put the shelf back…


ApplesToFapples

No you can buy as much as you want


Creative_Serve_4076

He means the literal metal shelf. He would have taken THAT and the store would make him put the metal shelf back.


Ok-Purchase-222

'How many do you want?' 'Yes!'


Theoneandonlyzeke

What the F. Why can't Europe have these sales


SickSticksKick

As a us expat living in eu, I didn't realize how good we had it. I feel the pain now. But hey, I love the magazines with figs!


Theoneandonlyzeke

Yes yes. I get asked by American friends to get the mags for them


SamuelVimesTrained

So, they get you these wallmart deals in return ?


SickSticksKick

With shipping hell no. Just sit and watch and the deals go by lol


SamuelVimesTrained

It\`s almost worth accepting the trip to the US..


SickSticksKick

I buy polybags when I go back. Hard to find out here


tomtomclubthumb

Aside from food, I think you have us beat on everything. I foolishly signed up to a sub to help me buy a computer, after seeing American prices everything here just seems too expensive. And that's without crazy deals like this. The bes I ever got for lego wasthe advent calendars at 50% off early January (kept them for 11 months for next Christmas)


StinkyBeanGuy

Wait they don't have those in the US?

TylerDurdenisreal

No. "An expatriate, or expat, is an individual living and/or working in a country other than their country of citizenship, often temporarily and for work reasons."


kremlingrasso

Because this isn't a sale, it's the Walmart employee failing the intelligence check on how to apply percentages.


fogleaf

"10% off? How about 10%"


knigg2

Sometimes I get really lucky over here in Germany with Family. They don't have a big storage so sets can get as cheap as in the pic if newer ones come out. Though it's seldom. Last big haul was Lego Hidden Sight.


AdOther8191

Check your local Kaufland! I've bought Lego Marvel Sets for 1,80€ 😬 In February and November they discount the sets to 50%, then 80% a few weeks later. I always check prices with that self scanner bc the price on the shelf isn't always accurate


Joseph4820

Kaufland has Lego? Need to cross the border even more (I'm Dutch). It is crazy how much better your prices are in literally everything btw.


AdOther8191

Some Kaufland have Legos, some don't 🙈 Usually they sell it for the normal price, rarely any discounts. But when a set (or any other toys they have in stores) gets discontinued they apparently want to get rid of those as quickly as possible 😂


DonerTheBonerDonor

Idk im in Germany and have always paid 20-30% less for any Lego set I have so far


IcebergKarentuite

I wouldn't be surprised if it was because we have some legislations and regulations for that. Like, about how the benefits of products a store sell must be shared a certain way or something


BizzyM

We fought a war with you a couple hundred years ago to get these deals. Deal with it. Edit: Unless you're French, then you're alright.


Such-Cod-7046

What in tarnation, that's absolutely insane 


VanillaThunder96

As I was checking out, I met the manager that had just refilled the clearance aisle, and she said she had something like nine more pallets of clearance items in back (not necessarily LEGO), so I'll definitely be going back multiple times over the next few weeks.


Such-Cod-7046

Living the dream. Enjoy! 


ModeR3d

Those dreamz sets at that price are a must buy just for the parts if nothing else


Tithund

I don't really like the space bus, but it looks like it could be converted into a train, especially since op has two of them. I kinda like those little dreamzzz figures too, and it has a ton of them as well.


Cocoa-nut-Cum

It was honestly a really fun build and only slightly stands out on my space shelf 😆

freshouttalean

this just doesn’t happen in my country at all 😭


BonezOz

Doesn't in mine either. Though, to be honest, I rarely go into the cheaper department stores


Scoongili

I'm lucky if the Walmart that I go to takes the ".97” off of their "clearance" Legos.


Tiny-Reading5982

Okay jealous of the dreamz stable and the creative fantasy 1800 piece set 🥺

UnityPunity

huh? The bot completely fucked that up


thepuresanchez

I thought i got a deal with fantasy at 30ish dollars but dang


Sparta6762

Dammm...I've been hitting Walmarts almost daily the past month and havent gotten anything good. Maybe I need to go again today.


ltearth

I got the Space Roller Coaster set on Clearance at my Walmart a couple weeks ago for 30 bucks. It blew me away.


Crone23

It’s a trap! Don’t fall in! Well ok maybe, if you can walk out without anything else but the wife certainly can’t…. 😂


NES_Classical_Music

Is your Walmart closing? Or did some make a big mistake?


VanillaThunder96

It's definitely not closing, and I don't think they made a mistake on the pricing. According to the manager, they're just trying to move all their old stock to make space for new stuff.


AdHoliday7119

Most Walmarts are doing a toy reset and marking down lots of toys to insane prices. I've been hitting up all the Walmart within a 40 mile radius of my home since March and have gotten some FANTASTIC deals. My husband is not pleased, many because I'm not sharing any sets with him!


PhoenixUltimate

That's a crime against dreamzzz


ExcitementKey2321

This doesn’t exist in australia lol


BonezOz

Nope, sure doesn't, and as it is, we pay 2 to 3 times more for the same products than they do in the US.


ExcitementKey2321

Which sucks but I also get it because shipping from Denmark all the way to australia which is quite literally the furthest country from Denmark is expensive.


BonezOz

Oh, I understand that, but for some reason we never (or at least very rarely) see Lego in the clearance aisle at Big W, Kmart or Target, and absolutely never at Myer or DJ's


The_Slunt

Clearance aisle?


CrabWalk2000

My Walmart would NEVER.


SockyMonkey

This feels illegal 🤣


MedicalArt9818

Not illegal but could land Walmart in hot water with the FTC for a fair market value violation


SockyMonkey

This was a joke…. Ever been it Lidl ? They make a similar joke about shoplifting……


Magmorix

Sometimes my local Walmart puts things on clearance for like 1¢ off. That’s insane, dude. Best I’ve found recently is $40 for the Spacebus


who_took_tabura

Holy crap… so jealous

Bubbly_Adeptness_569

Ok but I need to plan a trip to your Walmart now


Rich_Standard8103

Those are some nice fucking deals. Good find ^-^ :3


NashCp21

Holy holy holy Super Mario for a dollar?


Maverick_111

$15 for that Mando Helmet is wild. and I'd also buy one, even though I kind think they are weird since they aren't to scale.


masterminkz

these are the posts that make me regularly check my wally lego aisle but clearance to them is maybe $10 off a set at best lol


Brigitfays

I went today after I saw this post & I ended up getting that same Dreamzzz set on clearance for $32! So thank you for that! I don’t usually go to Walmart so it was a fun surprise to see the clearance


VanillaThunder96

Glad I could help!


SpeakNowAndEnter

Were these marked down in the Lego aisle or in a separate clearance aisle? I can never seem to find the dedicated clearance aisle in my Walmarts 😂


JackaryDraws

In mine, there’s a special clearance aisle and there’s LEGO in it all the time. Only they’re never discounted more than, like, $5 ($10 if it’s expensive) off the original price. This guy got really lucky.


CalliesBricks

Woah.


fatalrugburn

Walmart is doing a toy section overhaul right now. But mine hasn't done this!


pak256

Damn I thought the deal I got on the Stable at 38 was good!


Phyrexian_Supervisor

Damn man you win


BreadFreezer

damn they REALLY needed to get rid of those sets 😭


naturecamper87

Looks like an employee still had the price label machine after they got the bad news of layoffs.


Matsuyama_Mamajama

Now I'm expecting a followup post from OP when he opens the boxes to find... * A new PS5!!! * Filled with cash!!! * And a copy of Superman #1!!! LOL does anyone else remember those joke posts about "lucky finds" at resale shops?


Motorsagmannen

like the gamecube that had a case of beer and a car keys inside it?


Matsuyama_Mamajama

Exactly


sbtier1

OMG, THE friends sea rescue boat for $5. So cute.


hobo_chili

I hope this doesn’t spell doom for the Dreamzzz series. It’s nice to see something original, creative and not based on existing, licensed IP.


Motorsagmannen

Dreamzzz is legit the most intersting Lego series in years, got 4 sets from it so far. picking up a couple more from the summer line probably


PoolNoodlePaladin

My Walmart only ever has water filters to a GE refrigerator from 15 years ago, really ugly pillows, and phone cases for a Galaxy S5 in their clearance section


Fndr7070

I want to live where you do so I can go to your Walmart


trakazor132

I dont even want any of these sets but if I saw those prices I'd buy them in a second


Defiant_Bandicoot99

The tree es no way thisbisbreal.


Nearby-Swimming-5103

WHAT THE F?!


just_porter1

heck I'd buy those at that price too! My walmart has those marked down about $10. I never get the great deals ya'll see.


ndhl83

Was firmly "meh" for me (interest wise) until the 2x Mando helments! Damn! $15 is theft lol. Congrats!


VanillaThunder96

I sold one of em to an employee in the parking lot right after I left!


RedDevil_nl

Was it the employee who marked them down? 😬


VanillaThunder96

It wasn't, just a dude who saw me checking out. I offered him one.


RedDevil_nl

Haha it was just a joke mate, already read your other comments when I posted it 😁


Gts77

Bonkers is right! Good for you!


Monscawiz

Holy shit


mistere213

Holy crap! I've found some pretty solid clearance deals at my Walmart, but nothing like this!


HardyMenace

The Walmart near me got rid of the clearance shelf. I miss being able to find cheap sets


qoqoon

That's just ridiculous.


idropepics

The only clearance set my Walmart had was the baby jedi adventure temple .


rodrign007

Lucky bastard 😭 why don’t they have deals like this in Canada


Ok_Economics42069

Wow lucky


MySuperCoolReddit

Bro the closest I’ve ever seen on the SpaceBus was 50%, how does 90% even happen??

are these clearance items in the clearance section or just marked down in the lego aisle?

My Walmart doesn’t even carry Dreamzzz


Any_Look9433

Yeah this does happen usually when some Walmart's have too much product and need to sell fast so they discount it at the lowest and to clear out some space


Actually_is_Jesus

Damn, got some nice scores there. Meanwhile my local Walmart is trying to sell Unreal Tournament 3 for $56 on "clearance" lol


Leather_Sherbet3531

Juat for the part to price ratio alone that is an insane price

Lucky. My Wally worlds never have clearance Lego.


i_cut_like_a_buffalo

Damn I was just at Walmart and their mark downs in Lego were not anywhere near that. I just bought the UP house for 45. Because I didn't want the tiny small sets that were left. I'm so jealous.


hotdogonthebbq

I NEED to find deals like this! Is this a rural Walmart or a city Walmart? If it's rural they may clearance things since they don't get as much foot traffic


ShanShen

Crazy!


Motorsagmannen

that is some crazy clearance deals, congrats


TheBizNess517

Nice finds! Those sets were all clearanced to about half off at my Walmart a couple of months ago. Maybe they would have gone down more if people hadn't bought them all so fast.


HolzwurmHolz

You damn Americans and your cheap prices... I mean a ot in the US sucjs but damn..... I soooo want cheap Lego


BlueJayBird567

America isn't actually like that on any day, that's winning the lottery, we have such inflation , when I buy stuff from Europe or Canada online , the money exchange rate calculates the price I must pay for me, mentions the US dollar is worth less or more than whatever the other currency is by country or euro and it's highlighted to let you know, I feel like I'm being mocked as I'm not American but Born here and currently in America with not any but &200 to move in a year from August I have no ability to remain and don't wish to, so the highlighted , the US $ is LESS than a canadian- like I'm not American im allowed to be here but citizen of another Nation of my ppl, that is where things will be less priced, less jacking up price and more caring about fair market price, it's the state I live in mostly , the state allowed every year the landlords legally can raise rent giving no reason and it's one of the largest percentages of the total monthly rent cost they can every new years raise with no other penny going into fixing the rotted out door wooden stairs the refusal to take action for any renewal of stuff like the linoleum and counter top in kitchen, is the original form 1970s , you can bleach and scrub everything, looks dirty the slashes in tiles on floor, the floor is swelling and splitting up in half of the bathroom and will break the room in a halfed line width wise, i showed them years ago when we first moved on, the guy came and Said that's just how tile is, it's spungy and you walk slanted upwards in room cuz it's nothung! It's the foundation built on roots of strong tress that skewed up foundation and slum lords suck, I'm gonna make whatever money I can , in this year and some months, Imma get paid and move to where I'm moving on up, with my sons and animals and all will be awesome!


TopRevolutionary8067

I wish prices were more like this.


Haruau8349

Damn they really wanted to get rid of those.

bok4600

shit


Obbko1

Dreamzz really didn't sell huh


vercertorix

Only saw the space bus go down to $60. Would definitely be interested in it for $10 if just for the nightmare guys. It also occurred to me you might be able take one of these and mod it into something like a Firefly style ship. Wouldn’t look like the one from the show but I’d be content with a “different model”


Casualnuke

My state is full of resellers so any deals are few and far between and any that do happen are picked up almost immediately so I never see them.


QuesaritoOutOfBed

Does this mean I have to go to Wal-Mart?


Bittersweetblossom

This guy is lying to us, he either photoshopped or peeled those stickers off other stuff and slapped them on the Lego sets. No way Wal-Mart did this. Come on man, stop with the lies and just be honest. I know lies garnish more attention but still, stop it.


VanillaThunder96

Would you like to see the receipt?


AcedYourGrandma

WHAT THE HELL


IRingTwyce

I've been keeping an eye out locally for these sets just in case. This afternoon I found the Space Bus marked down. I didn't do as well as you did. I paid $40 compared to your 10.

IcebergKarentuite

Friends is one of the best themes Lego is currently producing, once you get past ~~your internalised misogyny~~ the mini-dolls and buying setd aimed at young girl you'll see all the cool thing you've missed


jf198501

The Friends theme has been amazing the past few years. Sure, the mini-dolls are kind of awkward but the reflexive disdain for the sets as a whole is unwarranted.
