It was a fun place to take kids. We bought a lot of Nintendo games there in th 90's.

I stopped going there because they let their electronic/gaming section go downhill

We have two grandchildren, but don't go there very often. For one thing, I don't like their return policy, and I think I've only made one or two returns in the past 30 years. They now require that you allow them to input your driver's license information into their system. I don't mind showing ID. But, they end up having your credit card AND driver's license ID in their records. That's a hackers dream! In fact, we've boycotted them the last two holiday seasons, for that very reason.

And, I'm sure it's a financial thing. But, the two times we took the grandkids there this summer, there was no air conditioning. We spent about 10 minutes in there and left.

"I've been here since October 2006. Wow!"

I read it in the paper this weekend. I thought the store parking lot always looked full. Maybe our store does well, who knows. Time not a fan of the store. My sister liked to shop there when her kids were young. I went with her a couple times.

I have fun memories of doing my daughters Christmas shopping at toys r us back in the 80s. Last time I went into the same store was 2 years ago to buy some Christmas gifts for my grandsons. I found the store dark an depressing. Not the light, bright atmospherre that I remembered from years past, just old, dark and worn feeling. I now order all of their gifts from Amazon.

i have 1 an hour away. I went this summer for toddler toys and outfits. My 9 year old grandson is now looking on line and making out his birthday and Christmas list for me. Toys R Us is an easy 1 stop for me as I can get what the 3 youngsters want. I also like Baby's R Us. It is a nice drive and while there I run down the road to my favorite undergarment store.

Not too surprised, last time I shopped there I found the prices unattractive. Don't know too many people that shop there either......

I read that too. Maybe, the holiday season will help out.

I haven't heard about it, but I plan on looking it up in a bit.

That's upsetting news. We have a beautiful (and large!) Toys R Us/Babies R Us combined in my community. My girls are still little (3 and 6), so we do quite a bit of shopping there for holidays, birthdays, etc. It's always pretty busy, so I'm hoping they stay open.

I only shopped online from TRU during the holiday season so I'll shop Amazon. Guess it's just a sign of the times. Our local mall looks as if it's ready to close up any day, one anchor store remains.
