Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Toys R Us Big Book 2009 – CARS
The Toys R Us Big Book is out-coming … and it’s UUGGGGEEEE!
There are two coupons on the front – one for November and one for December – $10 off of $100 purchase …
Plus if you spend $75, you also get a free $10 dollar gift card …
(The “Buyer Protection Plan” does not count towards your $75 minimum … in case you were thinking of getting that for your middle kid 🙂 ).
And if you buy $40 worth of Disney DVD’s in that “green” group below on the right, you get yet another $10 gift card so plan out your TRU shopping like a military operation – surgical strike into the clerks and minds of a TRU* … let us know how it goes.
Plus with the $1 lunch at Boston Market, you aren’t spending money, you’re saving money!
*um, not literally but you knew that, right?
So, the CARS DVD Ultimate Set is listed at $44.99 but does not seem to be part of the $10 gift card offer …
Oh yeah, there are also CARS items on sale – thanks for the heads up, SlicePie …
Mater Tall Tales 4-packs are $17.99, the video games, a couple playsets are on sale … AND you get a cool looking Mater Tall Tales Car Toons backpack FREE with $25 dollar purchase so dig up the vault in the back yard – time to go shopping!
** Presuming the asterisk on the $25 offer means it only applies to CARS toys items and not the other 7,000 CARS items like candles, toothbrushes or portable generators.
Also note, the Big Book available at the stores will not include the two two coupon on the front page – it has to be one you get in the mail.

The big question is…when will it be in my mailbox? And how can I make sure I get one?
go figure i work in a retirement place where there are 500 apts so i can get many of these books from the recycling bins and i found 20 so far from the same delivery half had no coupon on the back “go figure”
I dig the Mater the Greater backpack!
Me too! 🙂
Mine came with one on the front 10.00 off 100.00 or more, valid 11/1/09-12/24/09. The coupon on the back is with a qualifying purchase of 150.00 or more. What a joke.

Wha? Bad call Mattel.
Last weekend I passed on my latest coupon from TRU to a kid buying Legos. The coupon was $10 off a $50 purchase. The kid was appreciative or should I say the mom with the checkbook. The sales prices seem to bring the price down to what other retailers are charging anyway. No big deal! The only store consistently higher than TRU is K-Mart, and, I’m not talking about Cars. Just talking in general. Of course whatever the “hot” toy may be for the season will only be available on eBay. Nice contributor on this site has me looking for zhu zhu pets- I’m glad nobody in my family is interested in those hamsters. Frenzy time is a comin’.
(MET: The Zhu Zhu Snake Carrying Case is the best accessory … oops, wrong line).
i agree tru is high price BUT it is the only store that ever has things like buy 2 get 1 free on things like Cars,Legos ,Geotrax ,etc.
which does work out to a good deal especially with coupons
Why isn’t the $10.00 gift card good for the Cars DVD ultimate set? Isn’t it for any Diseny movie purchase $40 and over?
(MET: I think it’s good ON the Disney ultimate set but it’s not part of the promo where you GET ONE … Confused …that’s aprt of the plan :-/ ).
If you purchase $40.00 worth of Disney movies you will receive the $10.00 gift card to use towards your next purchase. The gift card offer expires on 11/26 so you have to make your movie purchase before that date in order to receive the gift card.
Anyone else pine for the days of JCPenney and Sears holiday catalogues? Or Wishbooks, as they were once called?
Those were the good old days, weren’t they? Who’d have thought we’d see a day when catalogs are becoming almost extinct.
You don’t get the wish book anymore? We do. I just forgot to pick one up at the store today. They don’t deliver it anymore unless you’ve ordered something recently. Problem is the prices are too high. I remember when I used to do the whole Christmas shopping list from the book.
Penny’s and wards still have the gift books just go in and buy it $5 each with a $10 coupon included.
the sears one this year is 48 pages long!!!
Are this sells only on stores or i can order online too? Someboby knows? That speedway it the one i want for Diego 🙁
They have it here on sale for 49,98€ (almost 72.- USD)
MET, I sent you photos of the coupons that MY TRU book came with.
ONE coupon for the same time period as the TWO you showed for the $10 off $100
The BACK PAGE coupon is for a $10 gift card on a $100.00 purchase, not the $75 you showed.
Perhaps everyone doesn’t receive the same coupon set, or they made changes mid-stream in the coupon printing.
(MET: okay, yea, sometimes they will do different runs in different parts of the country as a test or they think they know that community better … one Target 10 miles away is about 10% higher in price …).
Having worked for ye ‘ole TRU in the past…
This big book is weak…
Sale prices not exciting… offering of products… eh…
From Days of Long Ago… From Uncharted Regions of the Universe…
They used to give out Big Plush Toys (Elmo, Pooh, etc) with a specific purchase price… Not anymore…
It’s my understanding we won’t see deep discounts like last year. although $5 off the MTT box set is making me think twice about buying it…
**Also, the $10.00 coupon I received is with a purchase of $100.00, NOT $75.00
(MET: The $75 gift card coupon is on the back).
That’s what I’m talking about……..it’s for a purchase over $100.00, not $75.00
The $10 of $100 purchase coupons are the credit card sized ones on the front of the book. The $10 gift card for a $75 purchase is a cut out coupon.
Unfortunately, I checked my book 4 times and I don’t have the cut out one – 🙁
Yeah, my coupon for the $10 gift card(on the back) requires a $100 purchase, not $75.
Everyone’s offers are NOT the same.
Nice scam, TRU!
***I hate to rain on the parade, but I just re-checked MY Big Book:
It’s ONE coupon, good from 11/1/2009 to 12/24/2009 instead of two coupons.
Anyone else getting 2 coupons, or 1 combined-date coupon?
ditto
Ours showed up yesterday with two coupons on it just like Met described.
ours has two as well! 🙂
Mine came today and only has 1! What a bunch of garbage! I called my family in Wisconsin and told them to save theirs for me.
Mine had two coupons.
I’ll take the Power Wheels Lightning McQueen!
Big Book…. Bad promos
