In the so-called "information age", most stores do. But I didn't know playvalue did, and it's such a useful site too! It lists their store hours, and all the items they have on sale. (URL) (22 years ago, 20-Dec-02, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

(...) Will TRU let us use our LEGO Magazine coupons? There were some Jack Stone and Soccer coupons in the latest issue. Does the Alpha Team brand include Mission Deep Sea? (22 years ago, 19-Dec-02, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I agree with you totally. Ever since I forked over CDN$400+ for an Imperial Star Destroyer, my spending power has become nearly non-existant. *sigh* So many sales, so little money...
