The end of the month is here, and it is time to share this month’s LEGO® haul! It’s not a big one this month… well, it is a big set, but not a large number of sets. I decided early in the month that I would only make a purchase in March if double VIP points rolled around, and it did. So, this month’s purchase is none other than the Corner Gas Station! Now I just need time to build it…
Double VIP points has been an annual even in March for a few years now. I always wait for it before I go out and buy the year’s Creator Expert modular building. In the past, the LEGO® Store used to advertise double points as a month long event on the monthly calendar. Last year, that changed, and they just announced it on the day it began. This year was the same. But, in the end, I got over 500 VIP points for this buy, which is over $25. I’ve been saving up my points too, so I’ve got a decent freebie in my future. I know I’ve said it before, but these double points events are the time to buy those big sets you’ve been eyeing. You still have until Sunday, March 31 to take advantage!

Definitely a cool set. I look forward to hearing what you think of it.
I’m hoping maybe Easter weekend will give some time if I don’t get to it before then…
By the way, as an FYI: I used your link to order my stuff. It took me to the Canadian Lego store, and I had to change my region to the U.S. I hope you still get credit for that.
I actually don’t know how that works. I will have to look into it. But, thanks so much for clicking anyway!
You’re welcome! If it’s helping you, I’m definitely glad to do it!
Love the updates. You help keep me on top of all things Lego in Canada.
I got UCS Death Star and Disney Castle. 1999 VIP points!
Awesome! Those are both great looking sets. Any plans on what you’ll spend those points on? Glad my little corner of the internet is useful to you!
