Double VIP points at LEGO.com
Posted by Huw,.jpeg)
From today until the 17th October, LEGO VIPs can enjoy double points at LEGO.com on all purchases.
It's perfect timing if you've yet to pick up this month's releases, such as 71395 Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block, 76239 Batmobile Tumbler: Scarecrow Showdown and 21329 Fender Stratocaster.

Perfect - count me in for 76239 !
Any news on double VIP points in the physical stores?
Ah, dang...I just made an order last week...oh well, mostly BnP.
Not much I would want to order from LEGO directly at this time, so I will wait for an offer of double VIP with GWP for my next purchase.
*Really* hoping this month's new parts are available before this is over.... because B&P is the only thing worth buying from S&H lol
I finally bit the bullet on the Upside Down, as well as a bunch of poly bags. I'm glad I was able to pick up some of the MMB sets; they're quite charming little builds.
I'm waiting for the HP or Xmas GWPs.
“Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P.”

Bricks and Pieces have never ever counted towards double points in the USA."
Right on Lego site, VIP points are earned on B&P and PAB (online), can also redeem VIP for those orders as well. PAB counts towards GWP as well but not B&P. Order B&P during double VIP period and you will get double vips once the items ship (usually within 24-48hrs). If not a simple communication with Lego and they will get you the missing points.
Available both in store and online
This worked out well...ordered my Bulldozer/ Hogwarts - Icon / Heavy Duty Tow Truck. I will have more than enough for my next Modular Building in January 2022 :)

Bricks and Pieces absolutely count towards Double VIP points. However, Pick a Brick does not.
I ordered roughly 1,500 parts back in April of this year when the double VIP promotion ran and I got double VIP points for about $190 worth of Bricks and Pieces parts, but standard VIP points for the $30 of Pick a Brick.

What is the difference again between B&P and PAB? Thanks
Waiting for the inevitable Castle relaunch, then I’ll buy every set in the line up.
I was planning on waiting, but maybe I'll look into ordering something early...I also need to use my VIP points that I've earned...grr.

I was the same way and decided to purchase some big ticket items I wanted. Wasn't going to get the Hogwarts Icons set until I saw it in person yesterday. Actually pretty impressive.
Hopefully 40499 is back during the next promotion.
I'm torn between going for the 2X points on a couple of sets now or holding out for GWP's. Currently my plan is to get at least one of the big HP sets when the HP GWP's go live. I know I'm going to want the holiday GWP's which will probably have high minimum purchase requirements. Worried that the Winter Village set won't last until the Black Friday promos like last year. I'll probably end up placing a B&P order or two while the 2X points offer is active.

Was able to get two at the LEGO store in NY today...would like to get one more. Really like to have 12 reindeer.
Anyone know if there will be double VIP point promotions or GWPs in coming months? I only have a few sets left to pick up from Lego.com this year, so I don't want to waste the purchase just for double VIP. Would prefer to get a GWP to sweeten the deal.
Do VIP points expire?

"Do VIP points expire?"
Currently as long as your account remains active they don't expire. According to the current terms this means if you have no activity on your account for 18 months then your points will expire. So as long as you make at least one purchase a year you won't lose any points.
They took the preorder for big Tumbler 76240 down. Can't order for double points. Bummer!

No, that’s very wrong. They count towards double VIP
Anyone know what the rate for earning VIP points is so I can check whether I'd get double points on my order? For some reason I cant find it.

1 to 2 days to ship B&P? HAH! I wish. Try 2 to 3 weeks (followed of course by another 2 to 3 weeks until the order is delivered)
does anyone know if i get dubble vip points on a purchase i make only with my collected vip points?
@magmafrost - points are usually issued at 5% of order value, double points is 10%. In UK, 800pts are worth £5, so normally £100 spent gets 800pts, now it's 1600. You'll need to do your own conversion for Australian rewards value.
@Oli - you only get points for the money spent after you use your VIP points. The worst time to spend points is during a double points event.
LOL, right AFTER my birthday...

You'll make point based on the balance you pay with your credit card or other cash. So if all of it was through coupons with VIP points, you won't get any VIP points. At least that's how it has worked for me before when using VIP coupons.
Since set 60302 is already double points, would I get x4 points if I was to buy it now?

I added it to my bag to check and it said I will receive 1170 points when it ships. Which sounds like typical double points only.
