Toys R Us - Cardiff

I know the old Toys R Us has been demolished and that the new one is due to open before Christmas. I also remember hearing that it is going to be the biggest one in Europe and I can actually see them building it from my office desk.

Anyway, whilst driving through Cardiff the other day opposite where the old store was is an information point with a countdown in the window detailing how many days to the opening of the new branch.

Thinking about Christmas etc I was thinking that I should pop into see them as possibly they may give out voucher booklets or let me know of any special opening offers. Has anyone else been there ?

thanks in advance - Welshy x

    £10 off when you spend £70 or more on outdoor or sports toys

    only valid at Toys R Us Cardiff, Swansea or Bristol - valid until 11th November

    Hope that helps someone

    Hi Welshy. This would be really useful to me. Do you know if they are they still opening on Friday? If so, do you mind letting me know where the info point is so I can pick up the vouchers?

    Thanks

  • Well I'm off to have a quick shifty around the new Toys R Us store tomorrow, hoping there will be some good promotional offers. In the Echo it states that Dr Who characters will be there so I am hoping DS gets to see the cyber men and daleks.

    Shame Morrisons isn't open yet as I could have combined the two stores
