Toys R Us Credit - Applications Halted

Applications for Toys R Us credit cards were turned off today in stores. You can still use them in store for the time being. There goes a nice $25k cushion in a few months.

Wow, you had a $25k TRU card?  End of another era, I suppose.  Kind of a shame they turned it off before the actual closing, depending on the offers it could have been a great way for someone to clean up on the closeout sales.

Wonder how long the 10% on Thursday will last for. Hope to snag a deal or two in the next few weeks.

Hello my neighbor, how is the new house in RI? That really sucks.  The 10% is uncertain unfortunately.  So get whatever you can now.

Maybe it's worth bringing Dunkin' to the store manager every day and asking for a heads-up on closeout sales and the 10% for cardholders?

Now that you've reminded me of it, I realized that I knew that from another past thread.  Very sorry to hear that.

All is well here in RI!! Way too congested but I am getting used to it. Far cry from NH for sure!  The 10% will probably be over within the next 30 days. I will be hunting the deals for sure!

I will move on...first job really. More sad that my kids won't have a real toy store to visit in the future.

It is very sad especially since you work there. Alot of people are blaming Amazon.  But I think the prices at Toy R Us were too high.  

 

P.S. Glad you are adjusting to RI.  There is a famous blogger I follow that lives in Newport or something.(Classy Girls Wear Pearls).  I think she and her husband are a bit much, but anyway she posts beautiful pics of Newport, towns in NH and Vermont.  Very nice.
