Site broken as usual. Can’t order anything.
Update: I was able to order after 15 min. Surprisingly faster than in the past. Rivendell took me 45 minutes to place my order.

Working for me in the USA. Had to wait in the queue for about 5 minutes. 10305 Lion Knights Castle is 25% off but discount is not showing on Sale page.
Not working for me in the U.S. Expected.
I was put in the queue 3 minutes before launch. 15 minutes after launch, I'm still in the queue.
Surprisingly got my order placed in less than 30 minutes! I got a few error notices but on a second try all the buttons worked. One of my smoothest LEGO Black Friday checkouts ever.
LION KNIGHT CASTLE! No way I could've afforded it at MSRP. With 25% and $40 worth of Insider points (the special $5 reward stacked three times for me; LEGO was feeling generous), I'm a happy boy! (Even if it is backordered for a while.)
Having seen the sets available on discount in Australia I was anticipating a big spent. Unfortunately (or fortunately) most that I wanted aren't in the UK discount list. Oh well... a bit left to get the rather nice looking Xmas GWPs in December!
Insiders Grey Castle set already no longer available in US? (after 30 minutes) Seems odd.
Got it after about 10 minutes in the queue. Hulkbuster is also 30% off. Tempted to get it and use the rebrickable model…
Tempted on Hogwarts Express at $100 off
That is a Big Towers!!!
Oh, comparing to US list of discounts EU offer is really pathetic. Our biggest Black Friday Sale ever sounds here like a mockery . I envy US guys with 10305 so much today.
Got the Avengers tower for £29.99 after spending some Insider points. Also my Natural History Musuem is arriving today so I’ve got a busy couple of weeks building ahead of me.
Just checking it's impossible to use 2 discount coupons in 1 order?
I can pull 3 X €5 discount but I doubt I'll place 3 orders in 60 days.
And EU discount sucks sadly

The only thing I got from the LEGO site this Black Friday. No discounted sets I wanted there.
If I was in the US I’d be buying 10305 this morning. Probably a few other sets too. UK sale very poor in comparison

You can use them all in one transaction. I know I did.

Yes, I've used the 3 £5 discount codes + Buildable Grey Castle code in 1 order.
10305 at a discount would have been awesome.
Alas, we only get really crappy sets that no one wants anyway. Some wooden boxes that even after the discount are ridiculously expensive, a few larger shelf warmer sets like that football table that have been on discount several times already and apparently still didn't sell, plus some smaller sets that can be had for better discounts at Amazon all year round. And seeing that even those crappy wooden boxes get 40% discount in the US but only 20% over here just shows how little LEGO cares about its European customers.
And that's what they call the biggest Black Friday Sale ever? Pathetic.
Oh well, money saved.
Anyone still wonder why I am so into alternative manufacturers these days?
@Brainslugged and @sjr60 Thanks I didn't know that was possible.
@AustinPowers 76215 isn't even on sale but we do get lego stuffed figs
I’m still debating which to get first, this or Orient Express,
BUT…..
My Natural History Museum pre-order just arrived this morning!!!!!
I didn’t think that would ship until NEXT Friday!!!
Well UK Sale = massively underwhelming.
US seem to have had the best offers, so hopefully people got some good savings over the pond.
Argos and Amazon in UK were the best bets.
Consistently poor offers on this side of the Atlantic are really aggravating.
Even the few Brickheadz or the Disney Haunted Mansion that got Australian discounts would have been nice but no, we get poxy wooden boxes!
Bonne nouvelles pour les Canadiens, pas de période d'attente pour la tour des avengers. Transaction complétée en 5 minutes.
This used to be my bug bear with LEGO pre-orders, it never gave you any advantage in terms of early or at least first day of release shipping, looks like they’ve finally sorted that!

Update: went to a LEGO store and got the last one. Yay!
Picked up Avengers Tower and got 3 GWP: Marvel Taxi, Majisto's Magical Workshop, and Winter Market Stall. Would’ve picked up the Guardians ship for $100, but it had sold out online.
Also picked up SH850 from 76210: Hulkbuster off eBay to go with the tower, seeing as how that that minifig was inspired by a blink-and-you’ll miss it moment from Age of Ultron that occurs in the tower during the creation of Vision.
So this set is 9.61¢ per piece with 32 total minifigs/bigfigs/nanofigs/buildable characters (i.e. DUM-E). If you got the set with the GWP Marvel Taxi and factor in the additional pieces it comes to 9.34¢ per piece with a total of 36 characters. Not bad at all, especially for a licensed property.
