Mattel Pixar Diecast CARS: The Toys R Us (TRU) N20 Cola Promotions
And yes, there will be a NEW Buy 5, Get 1 Free at TRU promotions for N20 Cola.
Thanks for the scan of the flyer, “DisneyCarsFanatic.”
It is NOT starting until the 26th so NONE of your purchases count yet!
The 5 For 1 Promotions Website is still showing the SIDEWALL SHINE promotion but presumably on 10/26/2008, they will make the big switchover. The promotion runs until 12/31/2008.
It works the same as before – essentially every CAR released ever in the US counts towards the free CAR when you buy it at TRU. Buy 5, send in MATCHING receipts, cardbacks, & $5 to get the CAR.
Note they have moved the UPC to the back on the WOC:Race O Rama cards, you do NOT need to send in the card portion underneath the CAR anymore. But if you are buying plain ole World of CARS cards, you still need the UPC which is underneath the car on its own cardboard. Do NOT forget to send in that piece also.
BUT this being TRU, you have to 100% vigiliant!
For some oddball reason, TRU will occasionally sticker over the Mattel UPC and place their own – these UPC’s do NOT match up with the ones on the approved list – DO NOT BUY! RETURN those CARS. Why does TRU do that? No clue.
Some people report that lazy TRU cashiers might run one UPC and then try and just list the other CARS you’re buying (presuming you’re buying different CARS) as ‘quantity’ 4 or whatever … this makes your receipt INVALID for the promotions and in fact, disallows your returns at TRU anyway since the UPC doesn’t match. If they attempt this, stop them and politely point out you are buying these for a promotions and they must be rung up separately. Again, accepting this only invalidates your receipt for the promotions so either ask them to ring it up again or walk away. Of course, if you’re really buying 4 of one CAR, then you are okay.
DisneyCarsFanatic also scanned in the eligible UPC’s …
This list essentially matches the previous website listing with the addition of about 16 UPC’s at the bottom last column – the new Race O Rama releases from CASE A, CASE B and maybe even CASE C … we’ll find out when they update the website as to what new UPC belongs to what CAR.
You’ll also notice some of the Kmart CARS on this approved list even though – good luck finding them at TRU. It does not mean TRU will be getting them, it is only listed in that for some reason, the CARS Collector Day Event had fallen through at Kmart and maybe they had to move the promotions so you’ll find a lot of CARS on the list that do not exist or will not be out by 12/31/2008 but they want it covered just in case. It’s better to have something on he list not actually available at TRU than to have you buy something that got shipped early and not count.
So again, hold off shopping for singles at TRU that you PLAN TO OPEN until the 26th … those you plan on keeping MINT ON CARD – shop away.
And yes, this promotions makes very little sense – the last promotions at least made sense – TRU not ordering much of anything and basically bribing you to help clear the shelf which most of us did … but now, there is more & in particular – NEW merchandise that does not really need much help to sell, especially during the holidays so … odd but hey, whatever.
N20 Cola might also be the mystery CAR that the UK is getting as part of their Buy 6 promotions … yea, yea, we know, we only have to buy 5 at $3.59 and you have to buy 6 at £4 to get the same CAR but hey, we don’t get all the free surgery we want so …
UPC list from last time so no Race O Rama CARS are listed …
