You must have missed the item that was 30% off (since the sign says 10-30% there must be something for it to be true...) ;)

SOMEBODY NEEDS TO bring this chain back from the dead or fill in the void for Toys r us. its like the north pole shutting down and no Christmas.

Maybe Amazon will become the new Toys R Us in the toy department. (Online of a course)

here is STILL A NEED for a physical Toy store!

Toy makers are also said to be hurting following their demise. AS Far as I Am concerned DAve Brandon is the GRINCH. he failed to SAVE IT. Christmas SAles were 250 million BELOW Worst case projections and how much they made last Christmas was half they made in a year.

Here's something interesting. In the early 2000s, Tops and Toys R Us partnered up for a "store within a store" promotion where Toys R Us had a few aisles in select Tops stores. I didn't know a lot of supermarkets did this.

See the attached newspaper scan.

That was during the time that Ahold owned the chain, and I think they did the same in some of their other stores/chains also, as well as having one of the office stores partnered for that type of items.

I'm curious if they did that with the Stop and Shop in Willimantic or other areas around since there was no nearby Toys "R" Us.

I don't remember Stop & Shop partnering with Toys R Us in my area. However, I do remember Barnes & Noble book aisles and Staples stationary sections.

Consumer Advocate Clark Howard reports that ONLINE SHOPPING for Toys "R" Us has been discontinued. Also baby items such as diapers, wipes, and formula are not on GOB Clearance. Further discounts of products would be made in about 1 month.

Wow, maybe I'll get a good deal on Mario Odyssey during the sales. I'll maybe be there on Easter Sunday.

OK my hope is someone buys the brand and some properties of Toys r us and bring it back from the dead!!!

OK I am just mad it was not amazon it was management misteps and how they did not addrress the 5 billion in debt until it bit them in the a--- and didnt think of those "play labs" till it was TOO LATE. It reaches a pt where its too late

if they are to be brought back from the dead 2 things: watch their prices and add play areas (Which will then increase sales).

Why was Toys r us' business model called outdated?

[danfifepsu]

OK Concords store told me they are staying at 10 percent as "They may get bought out". Whats she mean? And all of them are at mostly 10 percent off.

I do not know if the auctions have occurred for property and stores. Many companies are interested in the companies assets including buildings. We also do not know if the Canadian buyer interested in stores has acted yet.

what? What is going on? Also them closing all the Toys r us is as bad as the Burgermeister setting the kids toys on fire.

If anyone has any leftover Toys R Us or Babies R Us gift cards, you can exchange them at Bed Bath and Beyond for a Buy Buy Baby card. We are trying to take advantage of TRU's failure.

Ha Ha. I saw this story on the Facebook Page of our local statewide newspaper The Hartford Courant. Some woman commented that it's a scam because BBB isn't giving full-value for the gift cards. I responded "Why should BBB give full-value for the gift cards?" And she replied that I was an idiot.

What could Toys r us have done to survive bankruptcy?

http://www.businessinsider.com/kmart-store-photos-details-2018-3 I HOPE IT WORKS. IF IT DOES, I hope they can keep the prices DOWN and add play areas (And something MORE CREATIVE than kids playing with the latest toys, I have a few friends that Play Lab Thing feel iss just a gimmick)

[giantsfan2016]

Just go away. No one here gives a s h i t about your nonsensical incoherent ramblings.
