Various sites have posted the list of sets that will go on sale over the next few days. Some sets are no longer available online, which means the advantages of getting to an actual LEGO store are
1) the pick-a-brick wall
2) the possibility of sale items that are no longer in stock online
Otherwise, the shipping is free, the VIP points are the same and you get a free gingerbread house for orders over $99. The advantages of ordering online are
1) you don’t invest gas and time traveling
2) you get an outer box for your set
Anyone considering a trip to a store? If you are, I think @bengood921 wanted about five cups of green three-pronged stems.
