Lego Deals for Devon families
Kids and adults both get that tiny thrill when a new Lego set arrives through the letterbox. You know what? It is like unwrapping a small holiday. For families in Devon who love hands-on play but also like to save, Lego offers plenty of chances to keep the fun affordable. Let me explain how to spot the best bargains, whether you are after a roaring T. rex or the quiet joy of a minifigure collection.
Can you get Lego discount?
Short answer: there is no widespread official NHS or health service discount directly from Lego, but there are other ways to save. Lego runs its VIP programme where members earn points on purchases and occasionally get exclusive early access to sales and freebies. Seasonal promotions are common, especially around summer, Black Friday and the build-up to Christmas. You might also find bundle deals and occasional price reductions on popular sets like the Dinosaur Fossils Tyrannosaurus Rex. If you are searching for targeted discounts for key workers, it is worth checking third party schemes and national discount platforms, but expect most savings to come from sales, VIP offers and This is Devon curated deals such as up to 50% off summer sales or special Black Friday price drops.
Why Lego can still be kind to your purse
Here’s the thing. Lego is premium, sure, but it holds value and lasts. That makes it feel less like waste and more like a small investment in play that can be passed on. You can also time purchases for sales, use cashback, or collect VIP points that slowly pay back. Small wins add up, and for busy Devon families, that matters.
How to save with Lego – practical tips
- Join the Lego VIP programme. Points stack up, and members sometimes score exclusive sets or early access to sales. Signing up is free and it pays off if you buy a few sets a year.
- Watch seasonal sales and special events. Lego clears older stock during summer sales and at year end. Black Friday is obvious, but smaller sales crop up too, so sign up for newsletters and set alerts.
- Use cashback sites and browser extensions. A few pounds back on larger purchases is nothing to sneeze at, and cashback can be combined with store sales for double savings.
- Consider secondhand or swap groups. Gently used Lego bricks and older sets can be found locally and online. For imaginative play you often do not need the box to be pristine.
- Buy bigger sets with split costs. If several families chip in for a larger set, everyone gets hours of play while splitting the price.
Those tips are practical and simple. Honestly, they change shopping from reactive to planned. You save with a little patience and a few clicks.
Saving money with Lego
Saving with Lego is partly about timing and partly about approach. Start by adding items to wishlists and checking them weekly. Prices do fluctuate, often for a short window. Also, subscribe to newsletters both from Lego and This is Devon so you get the fastest heads up on limited time deals. You can use price tracking tools if you fancy something a bit more organised. Another neat tip is to use gift cards bought during promotions. Sometimes supermarkets run deals where you get vouchers when buying gift cards, which indirectly reduces the cost of a Lego purchase.
Similar brands you might like
For other family-friendly gifts, have a look at My 1st Years and Hamleys. Both retailers often run seasonal sales and offers that favour parents and carers. They also sometimes provide discounts or special promotions that are useful for the health service community, so if you work in healthcare, it is worth checking their pages or asking about employer discount schemes when available.
