So this is kind of crappy, but I think someone stole my TRU 20% for this month. Still haven't received it. In the past it's been hit or miss, like 3 months in a row it'll come then one month is wont. 

I just discovered people sell these things on eBay? Scummy

Not necessarily stolen... IMO

In my case, I've got the physical coupons in snail mail about less than half of the time it's reported by the members here (or sometimes 15% instead of 20%). I don't know what their promo strategy goes but I guess I'd like to choose to believe my mail lady has nothing to do about it.

Doesn't help the fact that they are just gummy glue'd on the front of the flyer so anything during the mailing process can catch onto it and rip it off.

When is the last time anyone received a coupon with their rewards?  They used to have some decent coupons in there too.

I check every month, but I haven't gotten one in at least a year.

 I characterize gummy as the material they use when sending a new credit card.  You can peel off that sticky strip and squish it.  My coupon came on the front of the catalog, held in place much like a coupon on a 12-pack of pop.  You peel off the top layer, but there is a thin transparent layer that is actually stuck to the front of the catalog.  That sticker won't come off without removing printing from the catalog.  Should be pretty easy to determine if it was ever there.

Mine are the same. They are like stickers almost. But I'm not even receiving the TRU adverts, so who knows.

I roll it up and then "sneeze" it at my kids.

Alright, I've done this before, but only had a couple respond to me;  if you have a coupon, can you please shoot the number to me?  Either type it or shoot me a pic, it doesn't matter.  If you want to wait until after you use it, that's fine.  Feel free to shoot it to me before if you want; I won't use it.  I'm a trustworthy guy and I have one of my own.   But seriously, if you can please get me the number, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Here's mine:

My TRU had (2) 75095 TIE Fighter on the shelf. ($219.99)

FWIW I haven't seen a shelf tag for the Slave1 in over a month.

10240 officially went retired in the US a couple days ago.  Even without the coupon, it gets it back to RRP.  You'll be making up for the lack of a discount pretty quickly on this set.

/edit to add: Don't go looking at the sold listings on eBay.

Are you talking about 10240 or 75095 UCS TIE Fighter?

tru is notorious for hiding good sets during a flash sale. Maybe they are wanting to clear the warehouses of old stock.
