Great. I was looking for some more duplos to add to our small set. This is perfect. It came to $30 for me when I shipped it to my home ($0.97 for shipping!). With a $20 walmart.com gift card being sent to my email. Very nice.

The E-gift card from walmart is emailed to you in minutes! So if you want two of these sets (for gifts, etc), you can order one, wait for a couple minutes, get your gift card, and then order a second using the gift card. Less money upfront out of your pocket. Shipping per box to your home is only $0.97, so doesn't hurt to do 2 separate orders.

awesome, thank you! I've been waiting for a deal on this box since missing out on the black friday deal, and this is even better! :yay:

Too bad I bought from Amazon for $15. Maybe I should buy for the gift closet. Would it make a good gift for a girl too?

I got these last week on Amazon for $15, but that was still a good deal. I suppose it would be too many duplos to get a second set. I wonder if they will have this gift card promo with other items?!

These boxes only come with 70ish duplos, more is not too many -- but, you may not want the redundancy of having two sets of the same pieces. I searched "e-gift card" on Wal-Mart's site and there are some other deals but nothing I was interested in.

Just bought four sets- one for DC, one for gift closet, and 2 for Toys for Tots. (Used the gift cards they emailed me to pay for the last 2). $10 is the perfect price point for me. And Duplos are the Best- safe, non-electronic,and great for hours of imaginative play.

Thanks OP, I ordered when you first posted but was having issues with iPhone freezing up. Just wondering, are people getting the E-Card already? It's been a couple hours and I'm still waiting! Yes, I'm very impatient ;)

Fantastic idea, thanks.

I'm still waiting for my ecard as well, but I used paypal to pay? Maybe that's the holdup. It's been about an hour.

That's probably it (there should be a "lightbulb over head" emoticon!) I used PayPal too, I'm sure that's the hold up!

I used a credit card and I'm still waiting on the eCard. I won't worry until tomorrow. It's on the receipt though, so I'm sure I will be able to follow up with CS if it never comes.

Thanks OP - I ordered three - one for a gift and two to donate. I used two cards to buy DS1 a tricycle.

The site says the product will arrive "on or before 12/24" which is too late for me. Did anyone order today and get an earlier estimated arrival date?

And just an fyi since I didn't know, the eCard is only good online, not at the store (I was thinking I could double dip and give the duplos to charity and the card to my SIL but she goes to the local b&m).

ETA: thanks for the estimated dates - looks like it's regional and I'm outtaluck.

Some folks use the eGift Card to order a physical gift card for instore use.

I did all separate orders and got GC for each order. Not sure what would have happened if I ordered a few boxes in one order.

Ebates also has 2% cash back for Walmart. I don't know if it's compatible with this deal but it would be one way to save a couple more cents.

I had trouble getting my gift card, but I emailed customer service and they resent it. The first reply I got back was a canned response, but I replied through my email and then they sent it. I just ordered another set and this time the gift card came right away! I couldn't resist a second one...I had actually purchased one at $15, but figured I will return that one and get two for $18 now. I haven't picked up the $15 one, so will just pick up and return all at once.

You might want to put it in your cart and start the checkout process. I also saw the headline about "on or before 12/24" but when I went to buy it, it said 12/16-12/22. It could be that the 12/24 is just to highlight that they will deliver before Christmas.

Thanks for letting me know. I need the duplos for a giving tree gift and it's due early next week. There isn't a Walmart very close to me, so even having it shipped to the store prob wouldn't work. I had planned to hit Target or TRU this weekend, just saw the deal and hoped it would work for me.

Thanks for sharing! The gift card arrived within 20 minutes of ordering and now I'm sorely tempted to use it towards another set. This could be dangerous!

Drat. Wish I had thought of that. Oh well, it is a great deal and I certainly have more shopping to do.

Anyone else having trouble getting their gift card? I emailed customer service because I never got mine, and they wrote back asking if I was sure because my e-gift card was no longer active. What the heck?

I just bought this set with the gift card, and the card was in my email box within minutes. Maybe call the CS?

Maybe I am obtuse, but what does the gift card email "look" like? I too emailed CS and they resent an email, but I am not seeing anything with a code or anything. I just see my order number from the original order, but without the Duplo information.

The subject will say "you have an egift card......" and the actual email will have a gift card #, a pin, and directions on how to use it.

After contacting walmart through the website, getting a canned email back, sending 2 replies (yesterday and this morning) w/no response I finally called a few minutes ago. 30 minute phone call (over 20 minutes on hold!) and he emailed me a new ecard. Received notice of the order in a few minutes, and then the actual ecard a few minutes after that.

Ok, so I definitely have the notice (2nd time) of the order, but no gift card.

what a pain. Im sorry I ordered! Finally found the number to talk to someone- 1-800-966-6546.
2 automated emails and 24 hrs after placing the order, I finally have an ecard in my email.
Expect to stay on hold --25 mins was my wait time. Good luck!

I bought last week from amazon as well. I actually got two, one for DS and one for a friend's daughter.. her 2nd bday is coming up. She already likes to play with DS's legos when she comes over to play. I loved legos as a kid and I think it's fine for a girl too!

So awful about all the people who have had difficulty getting their gift cards. I ordered 4 boxes in 4 separate orders, and each gift card came within 2 or 3 minutes. But I ordered early in the morning, so I wonder if the system got more backed up as the day went on.

I don't know, I ordered at 1 am (gotta love insomnia!) and I still had to call to get the gift card. It was a real pain.

well I ordered one set earlier yesterday and my husband received the egift card pretty quick then I asked him to order another set using the gift card he just received....and he ordered before 4 yesterday and I just got the Egift card for that one like 3 hours ago...I asked my DH to call but not sure if he got around to it or not and he's working right this minute so I can't ask.

What is the number? I only found a customer comment number. I clicked on the link to order the set (it still says $20 e-gft card on the image), and when you go to add it to your cart it says $10 gift card. Help!

12-11-2010, 05:12 PM
That's funny -- 2 days ago, the item page image said $10 gift card but it gave you $20. Now it says $20 but it gives you $10. Dumb Walmart.

My guess is that it was a pricing error at the start which is why at some point they got stingy about handing out the rewards.

I bought this the first day and received my eGift card 6 minutes after my order conf.

just clicked on the link and looks like they changed the price from $29.00 with $20 eGift card to $24.97 with $10 eGift card so looks like the $9 deal is over.

I bought the 71 piece set earlier, and did get my $20 gift card a few minutes later. Just used it to buy this Duplo set for $29:
Bricks & More Deluxe Brick Box 102 pieces:
http://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Duplo-Bricks-More-Deluxe-Brick-Box/13249909
The same set is $39 on Amazon but B1G1 50% off so ends up being the same price, but this way I could use my gift card so it ended up being $11 total with tax, with free shipping to home.

For the buyers wondering when to expect their shipment, I just received my Walmart 71-block Duplo set in the mail today. They told me when I checked out that it would come between December 15-20th, and the tracking told me it would be delivered Dec 14th, so earlier than both estimates.
