If you’re planning on waiting to do holiday shopping this year, you may want to get your shopping in early. There is currently a global supply chain disruption and experts say there might not be much on store shelves this holiday season. The LEGO Shop doesn’t seem to have much inventory issues except for a few sets that went on backorder but orders usually ship in a week or so.

Retail store shelves may have problems as some of the larger chains don’t seem to have much stocked. Here in San Diego, there are a few Walmart and Target stores around here that are out of certain sets which can be rectified on the LEGO Shop but you don’t get the instant gratification of getting the items in-hand.

Now would be the perfect time to get your shopping done on the LEGO Shop since they have a double VIP points promotion until the end of October 17. Double points also work on pre-orders so it would work on the newly revealed The Batman sets.

We can now confirm that LEGO Double VIP points will indeed be happening and it is now live on the LEGO Shop. From now until October 17, you can earn double points on all items. and for a limited time, you can also get the LEGO Swing Ship Ride (5006746) with purchases of $85 or more, while supplies last. LEGO has not stated when this promo will end since this is the third time that the promo has ran in the past few months.

This is probably the last time that double points will run until Black Friday which will only run for only four days through Cyber Monday. Remember to use Rakuten to earn back up to 2.5% on your purchase.

Update: It looks like LEGO has removed the Swing Ship Ride promo.

LEGO is now offering the LEGO Swing Ship Ride (5006746) gift-with-purchase promotional set again on the LEGO Shop. You can get it with purchases of $85 or more but it doesn’t say when the promo ends. The set was first released back in June and in September and it looks like there is still quite a bit left over for them to offer it again.
