LEGO released a ton of awesome Harry Potter stuff this year that will help you get past that $99 threshold. Just keep in mind that LEGO is running a double VIP points deal on the crown jewel of the collection – the brand new 6020-piece Hogwarts Castle set. The odds of a straight up monetary discount on this set during the holiday season is slim, so the double points deal is probably as good as it will get. Plus, becoming a LEGO VIP is easy and free. If you’re unfamiliar with the Hogwarts Castle set, here’s what you need to know…
