Re: [USA] Ninjago Spitta Play Set + Ninjago Kai Fire Mech- $

very good post imo tensor. I have learned to try and stay away from these "moral" issues on some deals-but you seem to have summed up my thoughts very well.

Re: [USA] Toys"R"Us: Fire Speedboat 30220 polybag

That was actually available at the end of last week or so with a 99$ online purchase at TRU. I suspect it will come up again as a promo with xx purchase.

Re: ToysRUs America Sale: BOGO 50% off & 30% off Select LEGO

Here you go Excludes Hard To Find. http://i47.tinypic.com/2urkt4o.jpg Its funny they call them "hard to find" considering: they have them, LEGO S@H, Walmart online, Amazon.com and Target online all have them also. Hummmm, that seems to be most if not all of the "major players" s...

Re: [USA] ToysRUs Instores: $25 off $100 LEGO Purchase

They are supposed to match all TRU.com online prices, unless it is labeled "Hot Online Price". Otherwise, they are obligated to price match. Yes, but the price match only happens after all promos/coupons etc are applied.The 25$ off 100 occurs first...then if you can find any further savin...

It says in store only in the title-I am pretty sure their in store prices do not match the online prices.

Re: Has anyone elses Toys R Us gone COMPLETELY out of their

I thought this was TRUs standard policy during the 10% back redemption period? I think I remember prices staying high/getting increased until well after the promo period ends to redeem your TRU $$. Then come early spring things seem to go back to the TRUs normal markup. They give you $$ rewards with...

Re: Imperial Shuttle 10212 At Amazon For $209

Opening a credit card is fine, just not the Amazon Visa! Go for say the Southwest Visa and get your free 50k points, which will get you $500 in Amazon gift cards. Actually opening/even applying for credit lines does affect your credit score. I was trying to say that the $50 credit they offer is not...

Re: Imperial Shuttle 10212 At Amazon For $209

I am not trying to dump on this deal at all...but I think people opening up a credit card for this deal should think twice. A Hard Pull on your credit report should be worth a lot more than this discount to you. I have read up about various Credit Card deals, and they say $100 cash isn't enough for ...

They were earlier, but they are no longer part of it. Looks like they removed a bunch of sets that had discounts on them from the $20 promo.

Sidersdd is correct: SW from Jabbas Palace down is BOGO50. You guys baffle me. Why do we even give Toys R Us our time money and attention? This Jabba set sells regularly at TRU for $149.99...while from Lego it sells for $119.99. So why chase your tails for a TRU lego sale that starts out with a 20%...

Re: Toys R Us Black Friday Deal

Time to file another BBB complaint. That is being completely unreasonable. Truth in advertising. TRU consistently advertises 'ALL LEGO', but excludes higher priced sets. There were no disclaimers/exclusions on the 'Details' page for this sale. All the ads I have seen clearly stated in-store only fo...

I would compare it to a cleaner wal-mart with better staffing. At least the dozen or so I have been in. They are based in Michigan and can be found in the surrounding 5-6 states of Michigan. Virtually every wal-mart I have been in left something to be desired....

Re: Hobbit Sets at Kmart.com

I had something strange happen with my order. I bought Bag End and Mirkwood with a Visa gift card. Kmart canceled my Mirkwood set but shipped Bag End. It has been four days and they still haven't charged my gift card for the $70 for Bag End. I am an honest person so I called Kmart and asked them if...

I got scammed at TRU...yesterday I bought 9448 Samurai Mech for $23 pretax (25% off plus $10 gift card). It clearly showed the $23 (pretax) price on the submit order page, but both the acknowledgement and pickup receipt emails show the $33.74 price. Then I looked up the order online- it does say 'T...

I bought Desert Skiff and a Planet set to get the Darth Mail. Then just added a larger set to qualify for free shipping. I'll likely return the larger set to the store.
