Deal of the day: Lego's Creative Brick Box is half off right now
Lego sets are an NBC Select-reader favorite for a lot of reasons. They're incredibly giftable and they allow builders of all ages to exercise creativity in their free time. Fortunately, Lego just put its popular Creative Brick Box on sale for almost half off, which is its lowest price ever. The box has almost 500 pieces of building blocks and other pieces to build mini sets, cars, animals and other figurines.
Deal of the day: Lego Classic Medium Creative Brick Box
Lego's Classic Medium Creative Brick Box measures at around 14 x 7 inches, so it's around the size of a small storage box, with enough space to hold all of its 484 pieces. The set has both flat baseplates and cube-shaped interlocking pieces, small wheels for building trains and cars, pieces for making animals and more, all in 35 different colors. The back of the box also has a visual outline of everything in the box and photos to provide inspiration for creations, so it's easy to see everything at a bird's eye view.

The hugely popular town centre video game shop is due to close down in a matter of weeks it has announced. 4 The store now has signs in the window announcing its imminent closure Credit: Google Maps 4 Several GAME stores have closed across the UK recently Credit: Alamy GAME, in Festival Place, Basingstoke, suddenly announced it will be closing down next month. The retailer will be holding a 20 per cent off everything closing down sale before shutting up shop for good on August 10. GAME sells a variety of video games, consoles and pop culture merchandise. The retailer came under fire recently when it cancelled pre-orders of heavily anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 consoles. Its Basingstoke location is now due to close for good with signs seen in the window announcing the closure. No reason has been given for the retailers abrupt departure from the shopping centre. Products including popular video games and Lego sets have had their stock prices reduced. Retailer GAME, which specialises in consoles, games and accessories was acquired by Frasers Group in 2019 as part of a £52 million deal. The retailer has closed a number of locations across the UK in recent months. Signs in the window of the Basingstoke store read: "This store will cease trading on 10th August. Why are so many shops going bust? "Please shop online at A number of GAME stores have closed with some being converted into concessions within Sports Direct and other Frasers Group stores. Locals have been left disappointed by the news of the Basingstoke location's closure. Following Frasers Group acquiring GAME in 2019 significant restructuring and downsizing of the video game retailer has commenced. While plans don't indicate that the stores will disappear from the British high street completely many locations are expected to close. 4 The retailer has launched a 20 per cent off all stock closing down sale Credit: Alamy 4 The store will be sorely missed by locals Credit: Google Maps Downfall of GAME Game was acquired by billionaire businessman Mike Ashley's Frasers Group in 2019 as part of a £52million deal. However, by January 2020, the retailer announced plans to close 40 of its more than 300 stores across the UK. Today, there are approximately 240 Game stores operating nationwide. This decline comes amid a significant drop in sales of physical video games, compared to Game's heyday in the early 2000s. The Digital Entertainment and Retail Association (ERA) revealed that in 2022, nearly 90 per cent of all video games sold in the UK were digital downloads.

Hay bales, frozen turkey and false teeth among 'surprising' items lost on coaches
Hay bales, a frozen turkey and false teeth are among the 'surprising' lost property items found on Megabus coaches. The coach operator revealed some of the items left on its vehicles over the years after the lost property office in Glasgow was contacted about 469 lost items. The items found in May included a guitar, Lego sets, a Winnie the Pooh, a jar of honey, insulin, an electric shaver, a historic coins and stamps collection, a Radiohead vinyl, a Neil Diamond CD and a lone trainer. However, the bus operator said those aren't the most 'surprising' items left on their coaches over the years. The lost property team have dealt with many 'weird and wonderful' items with one of the strangest being three bales of hay. Other highlights have included a cooking wok, false teeth, family tree documents, lone shoes and socks, and even a whole frozen turkey. Megabus said 95% of the items reported were reunited with their owners, and those not claimed are kept for 28 days and often donated to charity. Megabus receptionist Angela said: 'Over many years of dealing with an eclectic mix of lost property items, our lost property team have almost become immune to weird and wonderful finds, but we still get something handed in that surprises us every now and again. She added: 'The most important thing, of course, is to try and make sure we can reunite as many of the items as possible with their owners, and we work hard to do that as we know how frustrating and upsetting it can be to lose something while travelling.'
