Back on topic, what is the average stock count per store on his set? My local TRU had 4 a month or so ago. Haven't seen any recently, but I plan on checkling again this Thursday.

I've not seen any at the two TRU stores in my area.  Ever.

We aren't insane for calling it TRUTH. Check the bottom of the flier I got in this month's bill:

Who else is trying to figure out what the E stands for?

They first had "TRUTUE" for TUEsday, but then someone did a Find & Replace on "TU"->"TH" and forgot that they went with "TUE".

Of course we all love the ease of just "showing" our phones, but I find my TRU's make fewer frowny faces  when I print out several copies of that coupon.  It seems the cashiers are instructed to take the coupon (any coupon) and put it in the drawer. This makes them happy. Never been asked where I got it.

Except for when your store manager keeps a folder of valid vs. fake coupons. No joke

What makes me shake my head, is that he isn't getting himself any further up the chain than any other store manager.

But, my gum, he's in the right!

Yes, the store is actually losing out on bottom line sales numbers.

Just wanted to make certain: you are not able to first price match, then coupon, then 10% TRUTH, is that accurate?  Just wanted to check before I go out this evening, thanks.

That is the commonly correct answer achieved with standard cashier checkout.  You might get lucky and find one determined to find some way to get them to combine, but that is a rare occurrence (and not what is "supposed" to happen based upon the fine print).

my TRU employees already thinking that's how original coupon looks like on a phone, ...lol

Bought at 229.9 ea before Jedi tricks ... Not worth the hassle over price adjusting in the long term 

Anything else worth grabbing at 20 + 10 off on Thursday? I already have grabbed two Slaves and there are two more sitting there....

Grab them too

Grab them too

His shelves are dusty already...[emoji4]

Picked up a couple of Slave 1 this weekend.  Had $200 in reward points expiring in a couple of days, so was happy to see them on the shelves.  Got one on my way to visiting family and picked the other up on the way back.  I also grabbed the JW Indominus Rex figure for my son's birthday.  He has all the others and he's been asking about this one for a while.  Was $34.99, but got them to price match Amazon at $19.99.  Overall, the Slave 1 and Dino cost me $3.98.

Don't tell your son you paid $3.98 or he'll be asking for 1 every week.

Quick question for the resellers/investing here. I was thinking of getting the toys r us credit card for the 10% off/reward points. Just wanted your guys opinion on the card. Normally I don't buy anything from toys r us because they are generally more expensive. Just wanted your thoughts on it.

It's a MasterCard so you can use it in other places, but the APR is high, so I would pay it off asap or finance charges will wipe out any rewards/savings.

I pay all my cards off statement by statement so I've never had any issue with interest. I was just wondering if people thought it was worth it. Was also going to do the BN thing I think it's 25 a year. Figured for each place I would visit I would get whatever savings card that location had. I need to do the debit card with Target to get that 5% off.

Just checking the correct order of operations for today's trek to TRU.  I have $100 in rewards expiring.

 

So TRU CC, then Gift Card, then rewards in order of payment?  My store will no longer take the 20% coupons via phone

on the other hand, found 3 technic pickup trucks (42029) and got them out the door for less than $40 each after coupon/truth/rewards/discount gcs + 8% rewards for next time

Someone at TRU was on top of things.  Looking at their larger sets is laughable.  Slave 1?  2 days ago, $229.99.  Today?  $298.99.  Good stuff.

Are there any lego freebies right now if you purchase so much stuff?
