| My seven year old son and I have been collecting the new wave of Jurassic World
Sets since they hit the shelves a while back. I had purchased all of them except
the two "expensive" sets (76949 & 76950). I was at Walmart yesterday and again
walked by those two sets on the shelf thinking that I would pick them up in another
week or two... Yesterday the price stickers on the shelf showed 76949 @ $129.99
and 76950 @ $79.95. I happened to again be at Walmart today, and obviously found
myself down the Lego isle. I glanced at those two Jurassic World sets and noticed
the pricing had changed... The stickers now show 76949 @ $140.00 (Increase of
$10.00) and 76950 @ $100.00 (Increase of $20.00). While we all knew this price
increase was coming, I would have liked it to wait until it was convenient for
me  . Luckily I had both of those sets in my online cart and the price their
hadn't changed so I ordered them. I'm sure there were other increases
as well but those two sets were the only ones I noticed...

| Gotta love the "discounts", the sale prices will still be more than past MSRP
 . The silver lining in this situation was that... technically, I saved about
$30.00 on these sets so naturally I had to use those saving on another set .

Eh, I didn’t buy that million dollar house. That’s lots of saving I can use
to buy LEGO!
Well, I don’t have the money on my account, so something must be wrong. I need
to call my bank!

| Yeah, I've seen the list of the sets they plan to increase the prices, and
there are a lot. (also there are some they are lowering the price of if I'm
remembering correctly?)

Based off of this link, interesting to see that some of the limits have been
raised.
