  • its raining here, so glad i'm not stood out there! Our TRU is on top of a hill on the outskirts of town, there is a motorway where the wind blows right down into the front of the store, i am contenting myself with the fact they will obtain frostbite as i cant obtain a mr squiggles :)

    If I go to my local TRU I won't get there till around 10, do you think its worth it? :(
    I dont need hammys just house, car etc

    If you don't go you'll never know! Is it worth the gamble??
    :j Proud owner of 2 hamsters (Num Nums and Mr Sqiggles) - house, slide, wheel, surfboard, car, skateboard, 2 beds and 2 blankets! And the ball!!! Thank you TRU - fingers crossed! :j

    just got a refund on my ball from CM gifts :(

    Says the website allowed to order more than there was stock

    So i'm back to just a house and a hamster :( gutted

    I've had mine cancelled too...I wonder if anyone actually got one. I don't think they should have put a definite day and time when there was so little stock.

    It seems very quiet on here this morning... How many forum members do you think there are stood outside a TRU this morning?

    Good luck all!

    Well considering one of those online toyshops had 500+ hits as soon as they listed the other night, I would imagine hundreds if not thousands - nightmare its awful out there, they have my sympathy & admiration!!! :T
    :snow_laug Maximouse loves the build up to Christmas :santa2:
  • New stores opened in kirkcaldy and exeter.

    Since I moved here last year I've not been to toys r us. It's the other side of town and the rushhour traffic is horrendous.
    Went to the paper shop - it had blown away.

    The weather here is rubbish, so I'm going to risk going to TRU a bit later..possibly a mistake, as i'm not quick enough online, but we'll see ;) I only need a hamster so cross fingers xx

    I wanted to go to Toys R Us but my daughters chickenpox is much worse today and she's very poorly so will have to give it a miss. On the upside though someone I know there Twitter has offered me her spare hamster!
  • oh hells bells, my 7 year old disabled lad, who has asked for nothing but a DS game this christmas, has just said 'mummy i have a confession', errrrr there is me expecting him to say he has broken something, but he says 'I like gogo hamsters too, and really really want the car for christmas with a hamster in' :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
