Turtle lair on sale at Toys R Us next week - Page 2

zaktheneutrino · 10-30-2012, 11:46 AM

I tried buying this online yesterday, using the $30 off coupon, and it was only giving me $20 off. The codes are the same (catalog and online) but online says $20 and catalog says $30. I may call toys r us and order through the phone and explain to them what's going on. I don't have a TRU that is real close to me or I would go to the store and do it. Like someone else mentioned, they have to honor the catalog coupon.

How does one receive the Big Book catalog?

Well on eBay, here's chance for a $26 (or less depending on the current bidder or others). I missed out on a chance yesterday for around a $28 discount, though I only intended on keeping it MISB since you know many years down the road after the series ends, it will plummet in value loose. Unfortunately, I don't subscribe to any Sunday paper or receive a mail-in catalog since I don't shop frequently enough at TRU.

Mine came in the Sunday paper but I would assume the stores would be happy to hand one out. You might have to ask 'pretty please'

If anyone wants the coupon let me know. i won't be getting the lair. Just a buck or two to cover shipping and for my time.

It is likely too late to get this one shipped to you. But if you are interested in toy collecting it is not a bad idea to be on Toys R Us' mailing list. They do catalogs like these once or twice a year and there are often worthwhile coupons in them.

They sent mine to me in the mail. I signed up for the TRU rewards card and possibly the email list too? So one of those two reasons is why I got it. I still need to call and tell them about my code problem though...Good luck!

The big books that are in the store do not have the coupons in them, they are only available in the mailed ones.

If you have the mailed one there is also $10 gift card with $75 purchase which you can stack with the other coupon save even more money!

That's a good one, but I still like PixelDans review the best

Edit:
well, i finally scored this! i opted to get this from Sears and have a store pick up rather than risk paying for shipping getting it from toysrus.ca and i likely won't be back to a TrU before the sale is up. so it cost me $108 with taxes!

milesflex · 11-03-2012, 08:58 AM

I got mine for around $96, too ($119-20% plus free shipping) a few months ago. I read a review where someone said they were missing a few parts and Playmates couldn't replace them, so I broke down and opened it to check the contents. I'm 30 with no kids yet, and my house is full of toys already, and the future Mrs. will not be happy when she notices this beast in my office. It is pretty cool, though. But I wouldn't pay much more than $100 for it.

Or 1 hour to Regina lol. But yeah I got mine already from Sears. Got it shipped for store pickup

I can honestly say that this is worth every penny, even at $120. I love the design and shear size of it. The thing that really makes me giddy is it looks like another play set could possibly connect to it someday. Even though I wish the upper levels were a little deeper it is a great blending of the Turtles' lairs put out before it. Now I just have to put up a shelf big enough to hold it.
