Walmart sends shoppers wild as they slash price of everyone's favorite childhood toy
A LEGO enthusiast's latest search for deals at Walmart turned up big savings on fan-favorite sets.
Shopping expert Angel Madison spotted popular sets on sale for up to 62 percent off.
Some, including a personal favorite of Madison's, were down to as little as $5.
'I've done the work of scouring the Walmart website for deals at all price ranges, so you can grab a birthday gift or treat yourself in a major way,' she wrote for Country Living.
'If you are a truly last-minute shopper (like me) and even two-day shipping is too long, you can order most of these online, and pick it up at a store near you without leaving the car.'
In-store, Madison follows a simple rule of thumb for LEGO sales: Aim for over 20 percent off on small to mid-size sets under $100, and look for 10 percent or more off on larger sets.
'LEGO sets are typically priced based on how many bricks are in the set, and for me, this over $30 and under $100 range is the sweet spot,' she explained.
'They are easy enough to build in a night, while still making an impressive addition to any book shelf.'
The 62 percent off star of Madison's list is the Botanicals Field Flowers.
'I love dandelions, and currently have four of these in a bouquet because I buy them whenever I see them under $10,' she revealed.
Customers looking for a more adult botanical set may also be interested in the plum blossom, a popular pick available for $24.
'Right now they are $5, and can be assembled in just a few minutes. I've already added another set to my cart.'
She also praised the Peppa Pig DUPLO set, the $24 item suitable for children ages two and up that can float.
While Madison did not reveal if she owns the Peppa Pig product, she proudly showed off two other favorites: the Disney and Pixar Up House and the Moana 2 HeiHei, which start at $38 and $32 respectively.
'The Up house proudly sits by my desk, and looks so fun with the colorful balloons on top,' she wrote, adding that the Moana HeiHei was 'a blast to assemble.'
LEGO fans who aren't interested in Disney films can also purchase the Wicked Elphaba and Glinda duo, which costs $44 now that it's 20 percent off.

Besides the simple products, Madison revealed the must-have products that are worth looking at.
'The hard-to-find Back to the Future DeLorean is on sale, and it is one that I've seen sell out before,' she revealed.
She also praised the Harry Potter castle set, which costs $141 when its 17 percent discount is applied.
Out of all the products Madison has mentioned, the $180 A-Frame Cabin is her dream come true set, with 'charming details' like trees and animals.
If Walmart sells out, shoppers can still find these sets at LEGO stores and .

Lionesses star Lauren Hemp presented with bus named after her in Norfolk hometown of North Walsham
Hundreds of fans serenaded Lioness Lauren Hemp with a rendition of Happy Birthday to give her a homecoming to remember. The winger, a key member of England's double Euros-winning team, was returning to North Walsham in Norfolk, where she grew up, as a local bus company named a vehicle after her. She was the overwhelming choice in a public competition to name the new bus, even before her starring role in the Lionesses' Euro2025 victory, said Charles Sanders of Sanders Coaches. Hemp cut the ribbon and was presented with a Lego kit of a double-decker bus in recognition of her favourite hobby away from the football pitch, which she documented on social media throughout the tournament. "Coming here and seeing so many people here is just unbelievable," she told ITV News Anglia. "It's so nice to see my home town supporting me as much as this. "It's only when you come back that you realise how much of a difference it's made." Two days before her 25th birthday, the crowd was encouraged to sing Happy Birthday to Hemp, and she was presented with gifts from the crowd after being introduced by North Walsham's town crier. Reflecting on the tournament win, Hemp said she was relieved that her team-mates managed to win the shoot-out before she was due to take a penalty. "Standing there in the penalty shoot-out was very nerve-racking. We managed to get the job done before I had to take a penalty, so that was a bonus. "After that long six weeks of preparing for it, it finally made the difference and we were able to lift the trophy."

Teddi Mellencamp breaks down in tears asking if cancer diagnosis was 'payback' for her affair
Former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Teddi Mellencamp finally broke her silence regarding the alleged affair with her horse trainer, Simon Schroeder. While appearing on Tuesday's episode of The Jamie Kern Lima Show podcast, the reality star, 44, opened up about the controversy that made headlines in late 2024. 'I've never talked about it at all, just because of the kids, and I've never wanted anybody to have a guarantee whether it happened or didn't happen,' Mellencamp explained. 'But what I can say is, did I do things that hurt other people? Yes.' As her eyes welled with tears, the mother-of-three reflected on how deeply the situation continues to affect her, without confirming or denying whether the cheating scandal occurred. 'To this day, does it still hurt my heart and I wonder if that's why I got cancer? Yes, like it was my payback,' she said, referencing her ongoing battle with stage 4 cancer after her melanoma spread to her brain and lungs. 'Nothing goes without payment,' she added. 'However long it was … it was all over the press, it was everywhere. You're trying to minimize everybody's pain. You end up maximizing it. Because now not only do you have yourself, you have your significant other, your kids, the other person's significant other, their kids.' Court records confirm that Schroeder's ex-wife, Karli Schroeder, filed for divorce on December 30, 2024, just months after rumors of an affair began circulating. The documents, obtained by People, cited irreconcilable differences and revealed that the couple had remarried on April 14, 2024, after annulling a prior marriage in February. They officially separated on September 22, 2024. The allegations involving Simon emerged while Mellencamp was also going through a difficult period in her personal life. She had filed for divorce from her husband of 13 years, Edwin Arroyave, on November 1, 2024, also citing irreconcilable differences. Then, in February 2025, Mellencamp publicly revealed her cancer diagnosis, pausing the divorce proceedings. Despite everything, Mellencamp and Arroyave have remained close and have a amicable co-parenting relationship. The former couple share three children: Slate, 12, Cruz, 10, and Dove, 5. 'I always knew he'd do the right thing by me,' she said during the podcast. 'If he wanted to, he could still be filing and finishing this divorce off right now. But… it was like, 'Yeah, of course. No, we'll wait. We'll wait until she's better, and then we'll figure it out.' When asked directly about her role in the scandal, Mellencamp didn't shy away from the wreckage left behind. 'So many people are hurt in the wreckage,' she said. 'But I can say this from knowing — the wreckage doesn't happen on its own. It never had happened to me,' she said. She acknowledged she was in a dark place mentally and physically during that period. 'I think I was so broken as a human being during that part of my life that I did things out of my better judgment,' she admitted. 'I was so sick.' Mellencamp revealed she had been experiencing 'severe and debilitating headaches' for months before doctors discovered tumors. 'I was looking for comfort anywhere I can get it. I felt so much pain. I felt so sick. I didn't go to the doctors. I just felt some certain kind of way,' she said. 'The pain was so much that I had gotten to the point of like, almost hating waking up in the morning, which I had never been that kind of person.' Still, she emphasized that illness doesn't excuse her choices. 'I wasn't myself, but I'm not going to blame my alleged actions on the fact that I was sick,' Mellencamp said. 'But I do think a bunch of things happened in my life all around the same time, and I had zero control of any of them. Like I just was running around like a chicken with my head cut off.'
