What a odd joint venture for both involved

I was in Canada last week and they still open there. I went in and its still the same layout, nothing has changed.

Toys"R"Us - Dartmouth, NS

7 reviews of Toys"R"Us "Went in looking for a barbie and horse for my daughter for Christmas. Walking down aisle and seen this awesome Barbie with a horse on a big display. 4 shelves filled with this product and the price below each shelf said 44.97! I get to cash the Barbie and Horse ring...

Isn't Macy's on its last legs??? There's no need for this.

Isn't Macy's on its last legs??? There's no need for this.

I was about to say the exact same thing. How does this benefit Toys R Us considering that Macy's has been closing stores left and right for years now. It wouldn't even be worth wasting the money creating the retail space if the specific store is going to eventually close.

RIP Toys R Us and the gold standard FAO. Even when I knew I wasn't getting shyt I still loved running around those places as a kid. Now my son thinks Target is a toy store

We used to be a proper country.

Wait, last time I heard anything about TRU was they had an "activity space/toy store concept" or some shyt. I guess that failed.

This will also fail.

A better play would be to ditch the whole buy toys in the store concept and just open a bunch of nostalgic Dave and Busters type joints and sell toys online

Someone refresh my memory...

Toys R Us was a good company that was ruined by Bain Capital, right?
Pretty sure that was the deal. Bain Capital fukks all these companies up by making them take on all this debt and pays its investors and executives all this money, then leaves them to die as they're leveraged to death.

Or maybe I'm confusing them with every other company those Bain fukkfaces deal with.

Spot on. Toy R Us were doing well before Bain Capital got involved. A handful of people got richer on the deal, but tens of thousands got laid off.

The story of how Eddie Lampert intentionally ran Sears into the ground is far worse.
