Great gift alert: An adorable Lego Animal Crossing set is 50% off at Macy's today
SAVE $20: The Lego Animal Crossing Isabelle's House Visit set is on sale at Macy's for just $19.99 through Nov. 5. That's 50% off its usual sticker price of $39.99, which is its biggest discount ever.
It's November, which means it's time to start shifting into holiday gifting mode. If you're looking for a stellar screen-free gift for a kid or a gamer (or a kid who loves to game) that comes in well under $50, Macy's randomly has the impossibly cute Lego Animal Crossing Isabelle's House Visit set on sale for half off today, Nov. 5.
The 389-piece set usually retails for $39.99, but you can snag it for just $19.99 through the end of the day. That appears to be its lowest price ever: It was listed for $27.99 on the Lego website before it sold out there. Meanwhile, Amazon and Target are selling it for $29.99 (and it's full price at Best Buy).
I'll also note that Lego sets almost never get discounts this big. Last Black Friday, we didn't spot any that exceeded 44%.
A spring 2024 release, Isabelle's House Visit is one of five Lego sets inspired by Nintendo's Animal Crossing video game series. It builds into the home of a deer villager named Fauna, and it includes two minifigures:Â one of Fauna and one of Isabelle, Animal Crossing's beloved dog secretary. The set can be customized with tiny fruits, flowers, crafting tools, and one of the series' iconic balloon presents. It's rated for ages six and up.
It's a great time to be an Animal Crossing fan, by the way. Macy's Lego deal comes less than a week after Nintendo announced a new free update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which brings a new resort hotel, new items, expanded home storage, and more to the Switch game. It arrives alongside a paid Switch 2 Edition upgrade on Jan. 15.
