Toys R Us "Big Book"

[Jenn]

Anyone get this yet? Usually it comes with our Sunday paper - last week there was a small flyer for TRU and it said the Big Book was in and could be picked up at any TRU location. Our closest one is 1/2 hour away, so I don't want to drive out there just to pick up a the book. I hope they are still putting them in the newspapers - my girls LOVE going through the book and picking out their favorites, then I can go online and order everything. Maybe they come out this week?

We got it late last week. It came on its own, not in a newspaper.

If you need a quick fix, you can see the virtual catalog right now.

I thought it was supposed to be in last week's paper too, but I saw a TRU commercial last night saying to look for it in This Sunday's Paper. HTH's I'm just going to go by there today and pick mine up, need two anyway or they'll fight over it.

The powers that be felt that with the election this past Tuesday, it would be better to wait until this Sunday to put them in the paper. I would go this week if you can though! When you spend $75, you get a free $10 gift card to use by Jan 29, 2005. Also, Shrek and Donkey are $4.99 with a $75 purchase while supplies last. There are no coupons in the book you get at the store (only the ones that you get in the mail ~ a good reason to give out that phone number! LOL)

Will it be in a paper I pick up at a store? I don't get the paper delivered anymore.

It should be, but I really don't know. In the Chicago Tribune, they have a sealed section with all of the ads and coupons and it will be in that, but I don't know about other papers.

We went in a picked up a few of them at the TRU store last night. I didnt think it was anything exciting. I remember getting the Sears Wishbooks and pouring over those for hours when I was little. Matt was done with this TRU paper in 2 minutes. I was hoping he would give some ideas but not so far.

Hey, I need to add... I just noticed that our copy says "An Advance Edition of the Big Toy Book". So maybe this isn't the REAL one, just a preview?? I agree with the previous poster, it isn't all that great either, my boys went through it very fast as well. I just don't know what we're going to get them this year.

We received ours seperately in the mail a couple days ago. It really wasn't worth it, I hardly found anything in it that my daughter would be interested in I had much more fun with the Disney catalog that came the same day.
