Just got an email from Lego.com. Didn't realize points expire.... We don't want you to lose them, so please be aware that 553 points on your VIP Account are due to expire on December 31st . This is because all VIP Points expire 2 years after they were earned. Please note, you have a reward available to spend on your next LEGO purchase! Why not browse our online shop today to make sure you don’t miss out.
