I think it's a CAnada only thing, but it's quite nice to see them still honouring 50% off soccer, when they already have a few items marked down 35% off. Woman's Soccer team for < 5 CAD, is a steal! (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Well, when I went to Toys R Us in Oregon I did NOT get a 50% discount on my "Jack Stone" or "Life on Mars" sets. I did get the buy one, get one 50% off deal though. Maybe the 50% select themes only applies for Canada? (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)
