  • I think alot depends on your local stores. I went to Shrewsbury toyrus today to pick up new car seat and the shelf that had these on had several different ones id roughly say about 10.

    The offer started on Saturday, So i made sure i got there sat morning with coupon for store opening as word gets around. And yes some people have gone and got more than one but alot of the SA let these people do so, so if anything toyrus are just as bad letting people do this when it states 1 per household!

    Hmm, yes thats what i did type. Well done.

    In actual fact i did only get one per day so did not break any rules. Not about to get into any sob stories or continue petty tit for tat. Anyway, end of story.

    Well done to those who got the toys. Hopefully they do extend the offer for those who missed out!!

    Our local Toys R Us wouldn't accept more than one so my OH picked up a Thomas. We will both go back tomorrow and get one each, my parents are also going to do the same, will then either attempt a second time with a different checkout person or go back on Monday.


    Hmm, yes I am having a dig. It's not really rocket science what I am trying to say. Your previous post above is a lovely example. the voucher clearly says ONE per HOUSEHOLD. As as for your remark that a one year old will not miss out anyway - that is NOT the point. Her mother is single and on benefits and she would have loved ONE of these. What with this and the Ocado thread I feel a lot of greedy people on here are spoiling it for others. I also think it would be a good idea to keep your opinions to yourself from now on instead of rubbing salt in the wound and bragging about what you have done!!! :money:

    I was lucky and mamaged to get 4 - one per coupon but only after a trek to 3 toys r us stores. If you read todays coupon it says valid instore until sunday 24th July - the others state ending weds 20th July. Maybe if you were to contact customer service they may honour the others until then too!
