Shopping at Toy R Us

Toys R Us is offering 2 specials for holiday shopping, 1) Buy $75 in-store and get a $10 gift card or 2) Spend $100 online, *on participating items*, and get 20% off plus free shipping!
A great way to work this deal: Look up the toys you would be buying online and see which ones qualify for the 20% off online and mark them down, I usually add them to my cart so they are there when I get back. Now go to the store and buy any other items that do not qualify for the online discount, spend $75 get $10. Remember Toys R Us is price matching when you shop in the store, click here for details, so make sure to compare other stores prices before you go. Go home and order the items you left in your cart, get 20% off plus use your gift card to get another $10 off.

WAIT IT GETS BETTER!! Pair it up with Ebates and get 1% CB (Cash back), The other day it was up to 8% CB so watch it because it could change from day to day. So here is a quick break down of how this could go and how much money your could save:

Shop in Store:                           $75.00
Shop Online:                             $100.00
Total:                                        $175.00

20% off online:                         -$20.00
Gift Card:                                 -$10.00
1% CB on online total ($70):    -$.70

Total for $175 worth of items:   $144.30 (Savings of $30.70)


Another couple of ways to save is to use your Toys R Us card, or open one if you feel comfortable with doing so. You will earn 10% CB  on all your purchases, details here. They are also offering free pick up in store, when available, on your online purchases. So you can buy online through Ebates to get CB and then pick up in the store and not pay for shipping, details here. Last but not least, they are offering free layaway if you want the option of paying for it over time, details here.

Let me know of any good deals you get!!

Happy Couponing! : )
