Hope this hasn't already been posted. Our costco has big boxes of 300 citiblocs for $24.49.

Hmm. How many citibloks does one boy need. I've already picked up two sets of 200 from TRU this summer.

we just got 200 at toys r us and i've been wondering if that will be enough or if we "need" more.

There was a booklet in ours with various designs, and nothing had more than 300 blocks. I'd think 300 was sufficient, but I'm not sure about 200, lol :)

Very tempting! I need those for my block addiction. The kids can borrow them to play.

Yeah, DS isn't so much into blocks (yet?!) but I sure would have fun with those:)

I was really tempted to open the set I got today and start playing with them, but I'm trying to save them for hanukkah!

Does anyone know how many colored pieces are in this costco set? I got a 200pc set from TRU but it only has about 20 colored pieces. Will get the costco set if there are more colored ones (makes the structure more interesting).

Awesome. Found a site that says that they're the same dimensions as Kapla and Keva planks, so I'll need to grab some of these this weekend to expand our collection....

There's a handful of red ones, maybe 20 or so. I didn't count.

Toys R us has a set that is JUST colored blocks- red and blue i think? it's only 54 pieces though and it was only marked down to 8 dollars from 10.

is it worth it to add interest? then i have 254 blocks.. i'm still not to the magic 300 !!!
