Well, if you’re not too particular … or if you have kids you can hold by the ankles and lower into a bin, CARS, CARS, CARS! 🙂 That is a lot of CARS and easy to merchandise, open, dump, repeat. And two cute boys who perfectly encapsulate the situation with their expressions – joy over […]

“Josh F’ sends us this pic from a TRU … I can’t quite put my finger on it but something is different … Poor Doc – everyone else disappears in the night and is replaced by another. And everytime I’ve ever tried to return something to TRU, I get the full polygraph but Jedi mind […]
