Looks like 40335 Year of the rat isn't included anymore. Seems like they've either run out of stock or noticed the overlapping promotions.

Yeah, I was hoping to ‘stack’ the promos as well...oh well

Rat hasn't been on the European site since the 16th , so they ran out long before this.

US site still has the Rat ,but over there, the Chinese New Year sets are Out of Stock (Temple)/Backorder (Lion Dance)

The promotions do stack, although 40335-1 Year of the Rat is no longer available in the UK, it would seem. The set is still available in other countries though.

Must have been bad timing for me, I checked last night and the Rat was still available in the UK. I had planned to sell both GWPs to off-set against the modular Bookstore that I am buying to keep

The three promotions - Obi Wan Kenobi, Drag Racer and Year of the Rat were all available early this morning on the Irish version of the site but just the first two are showing up in the basket now.

It doesn't look quite as good as the Juice Bar, but that one was absolutely fantastic, so it set the bar pretty high. Still getting the dragster, of course. Gotta catch 'em all!

Let's see how the money flows to that date.

BE actually had the rat up this morning, but it was gone again by lunch. :-)

The RAT was part of my shopping cart, but after I had clicked "PLACE ORDER", the RAT vanished. It did not appear in the confirmation e-mail and it did not appear in my check-order-status. So I called LEGO support and let the order be cancelled. I feel rather sad now.
(this happened in the morning, not now in the afternoon)

Got both the Rat and Dragster with my order of the Lion Dance set this morning. Already shipped! Sweet! (The Rat is now gone from the website in Norway)

All three were in my cart just after midnight US. Didn't place the order & the Rat is gone so I removed a bunch of stuff. Just left enough to get Obi-Wan & the Dragster.

Around 8am Pacific (US) time, I was going to order Lion Dance and had both promos in my cart. Redeemed a $5 voucher, but the code wouldn't work. I decided to wait til I got to work to call about the voucher and was busy til lunch. By then the Rat was gone. Customer service was very nice fixing my voucher issue (gave me the points back, redeemed, worked). I'd asked and the pig had sold out during the morning. I did end up reducing my order and just ordered enough to get the Dragster Promo for now.

FYI, she did say that if it happened again to go ahead and place the order and the voucher can be added later. Which I would have done if I'd thought about the Rat selling out before I could order...plus I thought I'd call within an hour, didn't realize it would be closer to 4 hours. Had I thought that the Rat might sell out quickly this morning, I would have just placed the order regardless of the voucher. Lessen learned.

ps - After reading all of the comments, I should have ordered some Star Wars (like Yoda's Hut, etc) and got another Obi Wan to gift to my brother.

I mostly blame myself, but had LEGO's newish VIP point program worked, I could have at least one the Year of the Rat promo. I actually wondered if I hadn't accidentally clicked the in store voucher, but the customer service rep confirmed I had redeemed a LEGO.com voucher.

Actually, I have managed to get both the dragster and the rat at a UK lego store today. The rat will be a gift to a Chinese friend, the dragster will be converted for City use.

I was in a Lego brand store on Wednesday, and had to buy $50 worth of Hidden Side sets (that I didn't really want) to get the free dragster set. Part of me still thinks it was worth it, because these little promotional sets are great, and I really like this one. But I'm still stuck with two sets I bought but didn't want, and now have to get rid of them somehow (and nobody on eBay is biting yet, despite the heavy discount).

Picked up the Stranger Things set today in the Southampton store, and got both this and the Year of the Rat set as a freebie which was nice. Not got any Hidden Side sets, so I might have to give this a go to see what it's all about.

This was a GWP off $45 or more starting today at Legoland California.
