   So does this mean the go fund me failed? I was confused because one day they said no liquidation and they were trying to get o save eom stores and the next the sale was on.

  I believe they didn’t raise the 1 billion they needed. Last time I checked it was 200 million

  The gonfundme was so that some other CEO can buy half of the stores.

  That guy did the GoFundMe as a publicity stunt to see if he could privaetly drum up some other investors to buy the Canadian stores and the 200 most successful stores in the USA. That still may happen, but in the meantime, liquidation continues. I think this situation is very similar to the one that happened when either Gander Mountain or Cabellas went out of business. They sold their current merchandise to a liquidation firm and separately sold their name and store locations to another onlinepany who planned to reopen the stores under the same name.

  Thank you for your onlinement! I actually needed Frozen Piñata and although it’s not super cheap, 30% off was what I needed for my daughter’s birthday in a few weeks. I had just priced them at Party City and they started at $20 and the one I found a TRU was under $10.

   Just went at lunch. They had more items than I saw last week, but you can tell they are running low on inventory. Prices were pretty much the same as they were last week as well. Only difference I really saw was that Easter was 20% off. Most everything else was still 10% and Legos were still 5% off. I don’t care what anyone else says, I am sad they are closing. My store was always great at price matching and very helpful. I didn’t mind the extra work. I price match at most stores that allow it anyway.

   Just an idea: if you still have gift cards, you might be able to take them to one of those kiosk at like Kroger to cash in unwanted/unused gift cards. Now you might only get 50% value but it’s better than nothing.

  While they are ‘open’ they have been taken over by a liquidator. There was plenty of warning about the gift cards. Nothing shady about it at all. TRU is no longer TRU.

    We have a babies r us that was part of the first round of store closings before they announced they were all closing and went yesterday and everything was 80% off for their final 3 days! I got a graco travel system for $100 instead of $329. They also had a ton of toys left at 80% off. Hopefully they start to do the same at all the other stores the closer they get!

  80% off of $329 should be $65.80. You still got a great deal, but not 80% off.

    Kinda a side topic, but made me think of this- A Rite Aid by me is closing. The whole store is 50% off. Even with 50% off the store was STILL priced higher than other places because their regular prices are just that high. Crazy.

    My advice is not to order anything from Babies R Us. My daughter did the “onlinepletion” of her registry right around the time the closing was announced. We had to order a dresser and changing table top because they did not have those in the store. Delivery date was 3/26-3/29. We got an email yesterday that shipment was delayed u til the end of April. Further investigation revealed that the order had been cancelled by BRU 3 days after the order was placed and they do not have inventory to fulfill the order. My account has been charged, and there is no clear answer from them as to when (or if) we will see a refund.

  If you can’t get a refund from Babies R Us, contact your credit card issuer for a chargeback. You should get your money back since you never received the merchandise.

    I keep hoping they’ll start doing some REAL discounts at our store. So far it’s no discount on a lot of things (diapers, food, bath supplies, etc) and only 10% on most of the store. I plan to drive by at least every other day (just adds a few minutes to my onlinemute home to go that way) so that I don’t miss them doing some deep discounts. There’s a lot of things I’d love to grab at 50% or more and I can always put away for baby showers if I find something great that we no longer need once it’s up to 80%! 😉

    I stopped in to my TRS (Southern Maine) tonight (04/04), for the first time since the announcement. I’m honestly not sure what I expected, but last week they had people holding signs near the roads advertising 30%. To me, I was thinking 30% really wasn’t that great of a deal, but there wasn’t even anything for 30% off at my store. Everything was 5-10% off. The funny thing is that some shelves were actually cleared. The store was a mess. Now, I understand they probably aren’t bothering with cleaning since its a “liquidation”, but I don’t understand how some shelves were cleared at 5-10% off. Is this a deal to other people? It isn’t to me, lol. I saw nothing worth getting even at a discount of 30%, let alone 5-10%. I must be missing something, lol.
