Black Friday is the perfect time to treat yourself or a loved one to a new LEGO set. Whether you're a LEGO enthusiast or looking to get a head start on your Christmas shopping, there are lots of ways to save on your next LEGO purchase this year.
In this article, we have compiled a list of the top ways to unlock extra savings on your favorite LEGO items as we get closer to Black Friday as well as some new releases that you’ll want to make sure you get early this year before there is any risk of selling out.
Let's get into it!
1. Check LEGO® For Special Sales & Promotions
If you want to score some great LEGO deals this Black Friday, you should check the LEGO website before looking anywhere else. The LEGO® Offers & Sale page showcases the latest LEGO promotions, including free Gifts you can score with qualified purchases for both LEGO Insiders and non-insiders.
This, along with the Exclusive Sets, are great ways to save that are only available from the LEGO.com website and cannot be found on any other retailer sites.
2. Look For Promos On Black Friday
Black Friday comes with the opportunity to score the biggest savings of the year. If you know where to look, and how to make the most of Black Friday specials, it can be a great time to buy an early Christmas present or surprise the family with a new LEGO set.
Using coupon codes during Black Friday is a great way to get some extra savings on your LEGO purchase. Chrome extensions such as Cently automatically apply coupon codes from all around the internet to the website you're purchasing from to get you the best prices on LEGO products. The extension will also give you up to 7% cashback on your purchase.
Other ways to save include signing up for promotional emails or signing up for free memberships to get exclusive savings on your LEGO purchase.
3. Compare Online vs. In-Store Deals
One of the best shopping strategies when it comes to buying LEGO this Black Friday is to check in-store pricing for specials that may not be available online.
Checking local retailers in your area may help you find special in-person discounts. With so many people opting to buy online, in-person stores will often slash their prices and offer exclusive deals to local, in-person shoppers.
Depending on the amount of your purchase, in-person shopping may also save you on shipping fees and allow you to enjoy the LEGO set on the same day.
Before you pop into your local store, check LEGO prices at popular online retailers to know what pieces to expect. This is the easiest way to price check against in-person prices and find the best prices this Black Friday.
4. Use LEGO Insiders & Rewards Points
Joining the LEGO® Insiders Club is a great way to unlock further special discounts on LEGO this Black Friday. The rewards club is free to join and grants you points when you make purchases through LEGO stores, both in-person and online. They can also be earned at participating stores.
These points can be used for discounts on future LEGO purchases, along with other perks.
Some great ways to earn points without spending money are by taking part in surveys or quizzes and by visiting the LEGO Facebook page.
5. $100 Gift Card Sweep Stakes
Up until 11/19, LEGO shoppers can enter their email to win a $100 gift card. Simply sign up to their Insider Club and you will automatically be entered to win. There is no requirement to make any purchases before entering the competition.
The lucky winner will be able to purchase any number of items with their winnings, such as LEGO® Botanical Collection, classic sets, and other bestsellers.
