Feeling sad about Toys R Us closing

[Blackinksoul30 1,246]

Being an 80's baby, i grew up with Toys R US. It was a part of my childhood. My hubby has been taking me to toys r us at least once every few weeks since we started dating over 10 years ago. i can't believe they're closing. i've been taking photos at the locations around me.

Toys R US was one of my favourite place to go and part of my childhood my parents did the Christmas toy shopping and just love going to the video game section one time i want to get Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 but it was ALL WAYS SOLD OUT

Do you remember when toys r us had 'treat boxes' 

those were awesome!! They had little sample snacks and coupons in them. They stopped handing those out in the mid 90's.

to be true, I read it was not the actual reason, it was because internet buying&selling is overwhelming so much pshysical shopping that physical structures are no more substainable on the economical level...

 

anyway, Fanny is right nonetheless...
