However, buying your bricks and sets directly from LEGO has its advantages.
Let’s take a look at the big benefits of buying LEGO directly from the LEGO Store or LEGO.com.
1Points Through the LEGO Insiders Program
What do all good retailers have in common?
A solid loyalty program, of course!
LEGO is no different because it offers the free LEGO Insiders program (formerly LEGO VIP).
Not only is there no cost to join, but its also easy to sign up for the program.
You just need to be at least 18 years old (calling allAFOLs) and have a LEGO account.
With your membership, you might earn points on your in-store and online purchases from LEGO.
What do these points get you, you ask?
LEGO displays the latest sweepstakes on the Rewards page of the LEGO Insiders section of the website.
That leads us to the big question: When can you earn double the points?
These events traditionally happen several times throughout the year.

As a member of the LEGO Insiders program, youll get early access to select sets.
LEGO routinely gives its customers freebies when they hit a certain spending threshold.
6Keep Track Of Your Purchases
Some AFOLs are incredibly organized when it comes to their LEGO purchases.
However, others find it easy to lose track of their sets details.
If youre in the second group, LEGO makes it easy to keep track of your purchases.
All you have to do is log into your LEGO account and check out My Orders.
Typically, you just have to spend more than $35 to get your order delivered for free.
