My_own_2_bricks Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 The gig is up in my area. Physical coupons only are accepted. No scanning the 25/25% allowed. So now the question is... How to get the actual coupons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 The gig is up in my area. Physical coupons only are accepted. No scanning the 25/25% allowed. So now the question is... How to get the actual coupons? My TRU is the same way. Sometimes if you ask a cashier or at the CSR desk if they have extra coupons, they'll give you 1 or 2.

colossus Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I'm happy I was able to grab a Smaug (79018 LM) with the 10%/25%. I guess the 25 and 10 don't stack together to become a total cumulative 35% - it's 25% off first, then 10% of the post discount price. Still not bad getting Smaug for $103 after taxes when retail is $130 + tax. I would have like to get 1 more but the boxes look beat up at 3 different TRU and all the others are OOS.I tried using a $5/25 coupon with the Smaug by adding on a $2.48 Friends poly that was discounted from $3.99. Coupon wouldn't take per CSR. Either because it was a clearance item, or maybe because it wasn't over $5 - not sure.Did the $15 off $100 coupon expire - couldn't find it anymore.

I am Niko Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) I got a new cashier today, who didn't select the "Use TRU CC" option (so only 20% off and no extra 10%). She called over one of the regular cashiers to void it, who was like "you don't know what to do for him??" and told her how I always come in on Thursdays, always get LEGO, and always put $1 or $5 on the TRU card. I need a disguise, my cover's been blown. Edited July 10, 2015 by I am Niko 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swada33 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Thanks for sharing that. May I ask roughly when you applied for the card? I just applied at the end of June and got it last Thursday night.I wasn't planning on getting anything in store but I think now I might like to get a Smaug to go with my ToO.Sorry for the slow reply. I got my card last November. I really am not sure what caused my code to not work and the TRU and CC reps don't know either (though they might claim differently).

micbelt Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 So, I just got the R us credit card by applying online and got the 15% off coupon that is good for 90 days. Can this be combined with the 25% off coupon that is out right now? I know the 10% on Thursday does stack, but curious about the 15% for opening the account. Have some 20% off gif tcards from ebay and thinking about stacking the 25%+15%+20% gc and 8% back in points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISO8T0 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Used the BA-special at TRU yesterday. Back to back transactions for (2) Ectos. $5 off $25 wouldn't work. Employee said it was item specific. Did get the 25%+10% on each though. (scanned coupon stored in OneNote)I also placed an order online. Used rewards points +gcs (from eBay $10 off $50). What was interesting (and annoying) is that I was taxed for total before gcs were applied. (just an fyi) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(just an fyi)you cant use 5off25 and 25% on the same purchase. either or. i used it 5off25 on minifigs (as its for total purchase, not just one item) and it worked just fine.i doubt its item specifici got a few ISDs yesterday at $87.xx out the door (20%sale, 10%thu, 15off100, raise 13%GC, total 37% off MSRP). what the lowest these went for in the past?

ISO8T0 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 What do mods think about pinning TRU coupons to the start of this thread?Where is 15 off $100? Do we have a pic of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryherb Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) regardless. yesterday pickins appear as good as they get on the ISDs unless you can find them at walmart/target clearances at 50% in some distant implausible future. in that universe target wont jack up the original price to $199 and walmrt will have them in stock like their app says it should, and they will be minty fresh with perfect seals...

jerryherb Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 its the same barcode as 10off75, it just depends what your total on the receipt is BEFORE tax. i think the first time it appears is on page 3 or 4 of current DD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Achilles Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I wasn't planning on buying anything today, but had to kill a few minutes so I just wandered into an area TRU to see if anything new and exciting was on the shelves - Imagine my delight and surprise when I stumbled on an Arctic Supply Plane sitting on an endcap! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
