What you should know about Toys R Us
Toys"R"Us was founded by Charles Lazarus in Washington, D.C., in 1948, first selling children's furniture before switching to toys under the new name in 1957. The original company went bankrupt in 2017 and closed its last US stores in 2018. Brand manager WHP Global took control of the brand in 2021, and toysrus.com is once again a store of its own, shipping only within the US. In the UK, Toys"R"Us returned through concessions inside WHSmith, TGJones and Hobbycraft stores, with a separate website, toysrus.co.uk.
In the US, the brand is back in physical retail in several formats: Toys"R"Us shops inside Macy's department stores since 2022, flagship stores such as the one at the American Dream mall in New Jersey, airport shops and seasonal holiday stores. Online, signing up for the email newsletter brings news of deals, and orders above a minimum value ship free within the continental US, while Alaska, Hawaii and military addresses pay a surcharge. The same toys are sold by Target, Walmart and Amazon, which set their own prices.
Toy prices move most around the big shopping events and in the run-up to the holidays, and popular sets or licensed figures can sell out online while they're still on display in stores. Set your alert on the exact product page on toysrus.com – down to the right version or set size – so you hear as soon as the price drops. UK shoppers should track the same toy at a UK retailer instead, as toysrus.com doesn't deliver outside the US.

Saving tips for Toys R Us
Popular toys are often cheapest a few weeks before the Christmas rush – or sell out. Set your alarms in autumn.
Use the Shop by Age filters on toysrus.com to narrow down gift ideas, then set alerts on two or three shortlisted toys: if one of them drops, you can switch without missing the deal.
If you ship to Alaska, Hawaii or a military address, remember the extra shipping surcharge when an alert arrives – on a cheaper toy it can cancel out a small reduction.
