The only thing my TRU has right now is BOPPV Elites and Basic Cenas. Kinda stinks.

All of this talk prompted a visit to TRU. I was shocked to see the Basics pegs full for once. That was short lived though when it turned out to be 2012 Signature Series, which I don't think even qualifies for this.

There are some options here...IF you still have receipts from TRU you can get figs elsewhere and take the UPCs from those. Or you can trade somebody for some UPCs that doesn't have receipts. If you have UPC's but need receipts you could buy some figs from TRU to generate receipts but then return those unopened figs to another store (one with a very lax return policy) to get your cash back...plenty of ways to make this happen, I have thought of this because my TRU has a ton of crap right now too that I don't need. So yeah, think outside the box:)

I understand it helps clear old product, but what I'm saying is its frustrating for those, like me, who already have all the old product and want them to stock new product in time for this promotion. If they told us about the promotion in June I'd be fine...

And I'm not one who buys to buy. I've been thinking about other ways. I found Elite 15 at Target, saving their boxes hoping I find them at TRU so I can get TRU receipts. Otherwise idk...until they stock new stuff...I'm screwed.

Im annoyed more with posters asking how? what? why? when?
LOL !
Na , but yea its sucks around here too. i HAD to buy a WMH Undy and a B15 Barrett just to give the 2 i needed.. But like most of yall i bought my BOPPVs back in march. And they still are restocking them. TRU is just now getting rid of E13. and SVS heritage basics mixed with newer basics. BLAH.. ive spent 50.00 on HHH COO. im done !! 1 for me

I am saving the boxes from the ones I got at Target this week.

I would just throw down some rainy cash u have saved up and get one. youll make money even if you spend 40.00 like i did on it.

I've sent away for one COO Triple H already but I want some extras. Wish they would've announced the promo before it started and I would have kept more receipts and boxes, oh well:/

im more annoyed that they didn't promote this sooner. the promotion started what? late june? and they just told us about it 2 weeks ago???
not that my TRUs are overloaded with anything but Cena & Rey figures, they could of at LEAST pushed the start & end dates out so that we have 3 solid months.

BINGO! Like I said, I could've saved a ton of crap...but they told us so damn late a lot of us missed out on this...so now we have to wait to buy new stuff in hopes they get it in time. Last time I got enough for 2 Vince McMahons because they had that huge display with a ton of new figures on it...now we don't have that...and it sucks. No need to keep repeating, but I totally agree with you guys.

I bought the BOPPV basics: Cena, Rey, and Christian and WMH Warrior/Eddie for myself and a BOPPV elite HHH for my gf. None of these are figures I had originally intended to buy, but I really want a couple of COO HHH's. Warrior and Eddie look good on the shelf and the interview set was worth buying the others.

Yeah I just realized I haven't opened my Rock/Cena, Miz/A-Ry, Orton/Ryan 2-packs yet, so I just went to my TRU and bought the Rock/Cena pack again so I have a fresh receipt. I know I see the other 2-packs very often at other TRUs in my area, so gotta hunt for those. I am just going to re-buy/return them and then use the new receipts with the ones I have here at home. I'm a little happier now because that means at least 1 COO HHH until Elite 15 or whatever else comes out at TRU.

Yeah I can't find ANYTHING at TRU worth buying....I'm getting worried I'm not going to finish. Me too, all TRU has is Cena by me and I have zero need for 3 Cenas

I'm annoyed by the fact that it's a US promotion only! Totally agree.
