Buying Lego in Ireland

Polybags in Tesco

I came across the following polybags in Tesco, Nutgrove:

Fetching set 30357-1...

Fetching set 30403-1...

Fetching set 30531-1...

I got the last City one. There was still one pug left and a few of the others. Anybody spot these in other branches?

Wanted - Buildable Scarif Stromtrooper 75523

Hi Folks,

I know this is listed as a retired product but I was wondering if anyone has spotted this in any stores, hopefully at a great discount?

Thanks,
Dave

BricksFinder Lego website-aggregator

Hello there,
I am in progress of developing an international website-aggregator of Lego offers in stores around the world: BricksFinder.com.
Initially this site was made for USA and Canada, but now it also works with Ireland (15 stores), UK (19 stores) and some Eastern Europe countries.
I would appreciate if you share your feedback what else should be done or what is not clear or useful.
If you don’t mind, please let me know one important thing for me: if you use my site for monitoring pricing, how would you like to be alerted about Lego sales: Twitter, Telegram (if anyone uses it?), email, browser alerts or any other?
It has also a Telegram bot @BricksFinderBot in beta (with subscriptions and other stuff)
Hope you enjoy searching BricksFinder Smiling
P.S. I know about brickcat, but we didn't know about it when we started Smiling

Toys R Us - closing down sales have begun

With the Newtownabbey store nearing full closure (all Lego cleared within days of the closing down sale beginning - I think someone must have maxed out their credit card to make a killing on eBay) the Sprucefield store now has 10% off all Lego, which will bring it down nearly as low as Smyths prices. I think remaining stores will have the same deals, and with the prognosis being poor, the deals should get better.

It's sad to see, but Toys R Us made the massive mistake of relying on the brand name. Smyths seem to be competing rather effectively with supermarkets, Argos and even Amazon, but Toys R Us never did.

BOI Live Life (debit card cashback)

Bank of Ireland have just launched a cashback service for their debit cards, S@H is currently on it with 5% back until 21/03. Considering that's a similar enough rate to other services I could see that being extended repeatedly/indefinitely.

Rather easier to use than third party services as the cash goes back to your current account.

Lego Motors

Hi Folks,

I'm looking to motorise the Winter Holiday Train

Fetching set 10254-1...

The only Power Functions available to buy in store in Ireland is

Fetching set 8293-1...

Are the parts included in this set enough to motorise the train?

My only other option is to buy the Passenger Train and cannibalise the power functions from it

Fetching set 60051-1...

Thanks for any & all help!
