When does this usually come out again? I look forward to it because I usually give it to my daughter and let her mark up stuff she wants and I have an idea of what she wants. Even though Im never too far off.
Hope they have some good deals.

The book came out last year in early Nov according to an old GD post.

The Toys R US Big Toy Book sale always starts the last Sunday in October so this year the sale starts on Oct 26. If you are on their mailing list then you will get the book sometime during the week before otherwise you can get in the newspaper on Sunday Oct 26th. Most stores will not have the book out for the public until the day of the sale however some stores will have it out the day or two before.

I am hoping someone can clue me in as to when TRU may release their awesome coupon (Spend $75 and get xx). I am on a Toys for Tots committee and we use the crap out of them to help spread out our $$ further.

During the Big Toy Book sale they do have a coupon that of you spend X amount then you get a free toy, each year the free promotional toy is different. I am not sure if that what you are referring to or not. If it is then the coupon will be released with the book on Oct 26.

Any ideas about what will be the purchase with purchase this year. In the past they have been Elmo, Dora and Diego. I am hoping for My Little Pony.

Thanks everyone!!! I needed to be on that list also. I can't wait for the rush and long lines (lol). It will be here faster than we think. I was hoping that I would see some messages about TRU since I really could not get any information out of the workers at our local store.

big toy book?? what is it?
The Big Toy Book is a huge ad for Toys 'R Us, featuring many toys and games on sale for low prices, including some of the year's hot items.
Big Toy Book Dates: 10/26 - 11/22
"Our Biggest Toy Book Ever!"
Get a Wonder Pets 15" Ming Ming or Linny for $4.99 with any $50 purchase.
Thanks to a very helpful member we should have the full ad posted either tomorrow or Monday at the latest :)
Also, some of the "hot" items (Elmo Live, Kota) don't have prices and just say to check in-store or online for the price, so TRU must not want to commit to a certain price in case another store undercuts them... :D

I got mine in the mail today. There is a bonus saving card $10 off of $100 on the back and a free $10 gift card on back when you spend $100.

Awesome! Can't wait to get mine! Looks like I'll be getting that step 2 diner. Can you get both the $10 off and the $10 gc on the same $100 purchase or can you not use those together?
dmmiller
10-22-2008, 3:25 PM
I dont think you can use 2 together. There are a total of 3 cards. 2 of the 3 have different dates. The 3rd is the same as one (10/26-11/30) but states one coupon per customer.
MeliesMom
10-22-2008, 3:28 PM
Darn! $10 off would at least make the diner $120 though.

10-22-2008, 3:47 PM
I got mine today with all 3 coupons too!!
sigrist_2000
10-23-2008, 2:16 PM
i got the ad in the amil today!
(these two were on the cover)
$10 off $100 valid 10/26-11/30
$10 off $100 valid 12/01-12/31
(this one is a coupon on the back of the ad...u have to cut/tear out)
$10 giftcard with any $75 purchase offer valid 10/26-11/22; gift card expires 12/31
*****HEADS UP******
there were inserts in the book as well...saying:
MONSTER 2 DAY SALE (Friday Oct 31 & Saturday Nov 1),
Don't miss our Doorbusters! fri late 3pm-9pm, saturday early 7am-1pm
(kinda of confusing but on top they have hours of friday 9am-9pm; saturday 7am-10am...maybe misprint?...lol)
also flip the insert over and it says join us for Geofferey's trick R treat parade friday oct. 31 1pm - 5 pm ( new parade every hour on the hour til 4...Come in custome for the parade, free eco-friendly halloween bag, free treats, safety tips, and more; event for kids 3 and up, while supplies last, no rain checks...

mine came in the mail today!!!
looks like you got a different one than me though sigrist_2000
mine only had one $10 off purchase of $100 valid 10/26-11/30 shaped like a lil giftcard.
on the back was 'receive $10 gift card with any $75 purchase 10/26-11/22; gift card expires 12/31.
and no insert....nothing about a halloween parade :(

did it look like a shiny spot ontop of the monpoly game area ( on front) ( and yes they look like giftcards)...if so it may have came off or taken off...i almost missed the insert of the parade/2day sale ( was inside the ad) i had 2 of the same maybe urs got stuck in mine...idk,

anyone else have any luck with getting this in the mail??? im on their list but it never came, i know i can view it online but i like it in hand for the kids to look through......
KBsDarling
11-2-2008, 4:53 PM
we didnt get it either...not sure how we will do the santa list this year as the big book is usually vital...
Mandy4Matt
11-2-2008, 4:55 PM
I didn't get it either. I live in a small town and we don't get a large Sunday paper per say. I did sign up for their mailing list...but nothing! I find that I am buying a majority of the toys off of Amazon, but the kids still enjoy browsing through the book.
I never get anything I sign up for. I have a P.O. Box though and I swear the people that work in the post office take all the good stuff. Not 100% sure but have signed up a million times for TRU book and have never received along with a long list of other things.
