Amazon has the LEGO Ultimate Building Set - 405 Pieces for $19.97. LINK WalMart also has it for 19.97 w/ FS site to store, or .97 cent shipping directly to home Wal-Mart Link 405 Pieces
Also to make this even better, order $5.03 more toys from Amazon, you will be qualified for a year of magazine subscription, which will get you $9.97 refund.
Did anyone notice a wishlist from Ashley showing up in your Amazon account after clicking that link?
I clicked the OP's Amazon link, added the LEGO set to my cart. Then when I went to checkout, this Ashley's address somehow made it into my account as a choice to ship to. And that address is hidden, I couldn't even see that person's address. I had to call Amazon to get that out of my account.

Is something fishy going on here?
Same thing happened to me, it showed up as an item on Ashley Oshiro's wishlist. I was worried the order would ship to her address, so I deleted it and searched for the item on Amazon. It now does not show up as a wishlist item for me.

i have this set for myself, and have given it to quite a few of my friends kids for birthdays. Great set to augment all of their crappy bionicle and starwars sets that have a bunch of useless custom pieces.

Funny you mention that. My son has countless of those Starwars sets. Naturally the pieces from those sets are now mixed into the big pile of oh maybe 6000-8000 pieces. He makes his own designs out of them, which renders those expensive specialized sets (Starwars, Indiana Jones, etc) worthless to him/me. I much prefer these generic sets.

I guess it is to save on shipping from Amazon if you just want to buy 1 item ($25 required for free shipping)
I will go with Amazon as I have a Prime membership and my tax rate is 9.25% for WalMart... I am ok to loose 0.75% on bing (10% Cash Back - 9.25% tax) as I don't need to wait for that money.

She is going to be happy, because if you look at her wish list, and choose to show all items, it shows she has received over 200 of these LEGO sets!!

My son use to love LEGO's but ever since he turned 12 just recently he's not played with his in about a year and it's been all about wanting a DSi, a cellphone and girls.....sigh...they grow up so fast!
Okay, I pulled the trigger and got this set instead of the pink one. I am sure my daughter and I would be spending tons of time building together. I have also purchase the "LEGO Duplo 5380 Building Set - 71 Pieces" from WalMart store locally in the past when she turned 2yrs old. She is still playing with that one.
I am loving the "old-school" more standard LEGO set. I'm not a huge fan of all the craziness. It's great to see that they're still letting kids use their own imaginations.

actually I ended up buying from WalMart with 10% bing.
Amazone would only allow me to order 1 not 2 at a time.
There's actually a way around that. If you follow the link in the OP and add (one) to your cart, that gets listed specifically for Ashley Oshiro's wish list. If you then search for the LEGO set by name, then add it to your cart, it shows up as two different items (each qty 1), instead of one item with a qty of 2. Somehow, the wishlist is differentiating it, even though they are the same product. It accepted my order for two this way.
This should allow you to use the $9.97 rebate. But more importantly, you don't have to sell your soul to WalMart.
