TRU special Coupons for conjuntion with BOGO videogame sale

[ChrisXE]

I work at TOys R us, and employees at my store got special coupons that are valid the oct 18 and 19th only. The coupons(8 of the same coupon) are for 20$ off of 75$ or more purchse. so I pick up 3 paper mario's thousand year door,(100$ total, -20$ coupon, -10% employee discount) so bout 73.00$ for three 50$ games :)

[uuaww]

how does this help us...

[Dok Diamond]

and your selling them how cheap?

[ChrisXE]

the coupons are also good ONLINE, with special promotional code, which I will post

[Sartori]

Man you gotta scan these.

[slidecage]

is the buy 2 get 1 free offer good online though

[ChrisXE]

if I had a scanner, but I have a digi cam

[CheapyD]

I'd recommend waiting until closer to the day which they come active, before posting them here.

[Admiral Ackbar]

You gotta know someone with a scanner? I don't have one but I have acces at work. Hit a kinkos or something!

[ChrisXE]

I was wrong with the date valid, its oct 17th to the 19th, so sunday to tuesday, sorry about that.

Thanks cheapy I will heed your advice

[ChrisXE]

I can take a pic of it with my digicam which is rather good quality

[slidecage]

now we all got to wait till the 15 till we can see them sad : (

[ChrisXE]

I can post a pic if you guys like, but I will listen to cheapy's advice, and block out the promotional code to use online

[ChrisXE]

I have 8 of them coupons, dont know if BOGO will be oline also, but in store, anyone can use the coupon its called friend and family coupons, so you dont have to work their to use them(and it says works at any TRU in the USA)

[alfonsosoriano]

I thought the BOGO sale was the 24th?

[slidecage]

but once all 8 codes are used the coupons r worthless right??

[ChrisXE]

I thought the BOGO sale was the 24th?

The GC and GBA advance BOGO is this sunday coming up, ps2 and xbox are the following week that is my understanding from my boss

[trunks982]

buy one get one? not buy 2 get 1?

[alfonsosoriano]

Ohhh...wrong BOGO then...

[ChrisXE]

but once all 8 codes are used the coupons r worthless right??

all the coupons have different skins, but the promotional codes are indivualized, cause me and another employee dident have same promotional code, so once all 8 of mine are used in store/or online then their no good(i only plan on using one or 2 at the most)

[ChrisXE]

I am refearing to buy 2 get 1 free game sale, not BOGO, sorry about that. the codes are not valid onlnie yet, BUT the codes are GOOD B&M coming this sunday and says VALID on any deals or promotionals from toys r us. Only thing excluded are diapers, formulas, and videogame HARDWARE.

Man, I dont mean to bash a guy whos trying to share a deal with the community but........WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!!!! Six codes? SIX USABLE CODES? Man, you just jumped in shark infested waters with huge open wounds then decided to cut yourself up some more. I dont know what to say. At first I thought you were just showing off but thats not your style (from what Ive seen of your posts) Dude, pick six of your closest friends, or 5 and give cheapyD one, but dont post them here. 6 lucky people will get in on this deal and the rest will want to burn you alive.

[Benaorn]

Hey hook your fellow Virginian up :)

[Admiral Ackbar]

Hey, can we ask for these coupons in store? If it's for friends and family it should be public. Might even be in the Sunday paper.

[ReggAe]

Where u got the 20$ off coupons?

[slidecage]

most the time those coupons cant be used with other offers. if they want to dump the 6 codes maybe do something like pick 6 names at random. or just show the things without the codes to let people see what they look like

[ChrisXE]

actaully the coupon says for EMPLOYEE friends and family(sent from Maryland TOys R Us headquarters) so I doubt they would put them in the sunday paper lol.but the two other toys r us in my district dident get them for some reason, my mamanger said it was an incentive for staying open without power from the hurrican last year. our store got an award+600$ store cash for employee use.

[ChrisXE]

I am goign to post them but block out the promotional codes, I am thinking of hooking 5 or 6 other cagers up, punquex,cheapyD,scuba and others, not sure yet though

how did you check people out if the store didnt have power.

[ChrisXE]

back up gen that only could power very few things heat lamps(red lighting,only 4 in the whole store where the only things that had power, we had the old schookl credit card thing. me and and other employees walk them around with flashlights, and written down the skins/UPC, and PRICE from the tag. and the cashiers tallied it up with a calcuilator, and took the money from the customer.(no cashregisters or anything)

[dracula]

scuba deserves it, he hooked up a ton on fools on $5 Morrowind goty version back in july. punq does that kind of junk too.

[supadupacheap]

Im all for hooking up true community leaders. I even suggest a poll with some candidates names and stuff that way its decided by the masses and not just personal opinon (Id hate for somebody really cool to alot of other CAGers miss out because they have yet to have many great interactions with you by dumb luck) Just an idea.

[slidecage]

I might take the BUY 2 get 1 free over to BB if they got some games on sale these next two weeks. I been taking the meijers ad Buy 1 get 1 50% off for the last few months and they matched them

[Rig]

Congrats Chris for getting a great deal. Now I kind of wish I worked at Toys 'R Us.

[slidecage]

Hey werid i was just checking something. The nEw YU GI OH game hits the PS2 OCT 26.. BUY 2 get 1 free say you do this..... Dump the YU GI OH cards off on ebay for 20 Each.

60 bucks your getting for the 3 set of cards this gives you 3 Games for 20 bucks ( each game is 40) Take the 2 or 3 copies to Ebgames for 20-25 Now you have 120 bucks for 80 .... I might do this trade in my other 2 copies of the game and get RAW VS SMACKDOWN

Not bad 20 bucks out of pocket for YU GI OH and R VS SMACK

[KurtCobain]

I plan on visiting the TRU in Norfolk soon. You should totally slip me a few of those coupons.

[ChrisXE]

hey im right next to military circle mall and Lone star stake house

I work at toys r us and Gamestop

[KurtCobain]

I think I know where that is at. Isn't near Best Buy?

[Weedy649]

You know i think its right to give the codes to cheapyd and people like punqsux. Being the cheapassnewbie i am, i dont deserve it more then anyone else on the site but...mind sellin me one of those paper marios^^

[smartasien]

Headquarters wouldn't b sending them to Cali huh... Nads I wanna get paper mario :( as well as some other B2G1 games.

Lol I guess I'll try asking the employees if they have any coupons for $20 off $75 hahaha :roll:

[ChrisXE]

I think I know where that is at. Isn't near Best Buy?

not really your thinking of Pembroke mall by bestbuy, which also has a circuit city across the street, but my toys r us is about 5 mins from their

[KurtCobain]

[tubtub]

All TRU employees are getting those coupons that are good from next Sunday-Tuesday. They were supposed to be given out with checks last week, but probably some people won't get them until this weeks checks. Also, as I posted before I saw next weeks ad and there isn't the Buy 2 get 1 free deal listed. So the coupons are still good, but that would only give you a $50 game for $10 off(not as good as B2G1). If anyone wants I would be willing to give mine away, but the coupon code is the same for everyone. There is an associate coupon SKN and then a coupon SKN for employee's friends/family(912739). It would be too much work for TRU to create a coupon code for each employee. Just ask an employee to use that coupon code number and they may just give you the discount next week, although you are supposed to have the coupon and most likely they will ask you for the coupon instead, but I've read in the past that some people were able to get employees to just give them the discount by telling them the coupon code(at my store I wouldn't do it for someone without the actual coupon).

Edit - The coupons that all TRU Employees are getting are 20% off a $75 or more purchase valid from Sunday 10/17 to Tuesday 10/19. Also, you can not use your employee discount with the coupon(you can't get 20% + 10% off).

[ChrisXE]

lol okay ur thinknig of the right place, but their is no best buy by it, but yes their is a gamestop right outside the mall by the main street with a restauraunt next to it, I think its called Pickadillis or sumthing

[shrike4242]

I'd recommend waiting until closer to the day which they come active, before posting them here.

Can we DDOS the other sites that would steal this little nice surprise from us?

[slagcoin]

I hate to bring up the whole moral issue involving buying multiple copies of the same game (and I do not want to transform this post into the subject), but this post requires it to be pointed out. So many of you have been dragging people who do this through the dirt and essentially calling them selfish dicks. Look at this guy here. He is going to buy 3 Paper Mario's but at the same time is willing to share valuable coupons with other members. How about that?

[pdat2003]

so I pick up 3 paper mario's thousand year door,(100$ total, -20$ coupon, -10% employee discount) so bout 73.00$ for three 50$ games


How does 3 $50 games equal $100 dollars before your coupons and employee discount???

Because there is a Buy 2 Get 1 Free Deal going on next week...

[Nirvanaguy777]

dude you gotta hook me up with a coupon, im the megaman master and all

[Zenithian Legend]

I thought the BOGO sale was the 24th?

This is a for sure thing then? Nation wide I shall hope?

[slidecage]

Someone just said a few post up THE THings isnt in the ad for sunday. I dont even think its going to happen...

[LinkinPrime]

I work at TOys R us, and employees at my store got special coupons that are valid the oct 18 and 19th only.

Are these coupons available to TRU employees only or are they going to be on Sundays ADS?

[tickdude]

Awesome...just gotta make sure the codes are reusable.

[slidecage]

they said before the coupons are only giving to people who work at TRU and the Codes are not reuseable

[shamu]

The code for 20% off of $75 or more is supposedly TRUEMPLESAV4 . 10/17 through 10/19 online. Just what I've heard/read...

[tubtub]

The code for 20% off of $75 or more is supposedly TRUEMPLESAV4 . 10/17 through 10/19 online. Just what I've heard/read...

Yes, that is the correct coupon code online. The coupons do not have unique codes on them. If the cashier gave you the coupon back, you could reuse it as many times as you like. The coupons are meant to be only for TRU friends and family, so if you know an employee they should have extras they could give to you. And if an employee uses the 20% off coupon, they can't use their 10% discount on top of that(one or the other).

Also, in this Sunday's ad the Buy2Get1 free sale is not listed. I should have October 24ths ad either tomorrow or Thursday(they send black and white copies to the stores a week or 2 in advance of the ad), so by Friday we should know for sure if anything is happening the 24th of October.

Have you seen the Day after thanksgiving ad yet. I have heard either TRU or KB TOYS is going to be selling GBA for 19.99 (older models) from like 6 to 8 am

[tubtub]

Nope, usually they keep that ad wrapped up for awhile. It probably won't be until the first or second week of November people can get their hands on it. After the past few years of stores complaining about people posting the ad online, I bet stores will try to keep the ad under wraps for as long as they can.

[Snake2715]

On a similar subject I just received a $10 gift card from TRU for being a good customer it came witht eh new flyer and its good towards a purchase of $75 or more.

FYI

[The Mana Knight]

I'd gladly like a coupn because than I can get a $50 and $30 game I want, and pay only $60. Just hope I get there soon enough because I'm coming home on friday.
