Yeah, I too have rewards that expire the 11th then a different set that can use starting the 12th. They claim its because of the time frame of the qualifying purchases I made. That is the official line, but this year I did ALL of my Toys R Us shopping before the 15th of November (I live in Canada and did a quick trip to the US). It was 2 transactions 4 days apart for quite a lot of money, relatively speaking. They were kind enough to give me 2/3 of the rewards to use by the 11th and the other 1/3 afterwards. Since the purchases were heavier on the 2nd transaction, they just do it to mess with you. In fact, when I lived in the states, they always split them up. It creates return business. I did, once, receive my bonus in the mail on the day before thanksgiving with an expiration date of 3 days later. I was rather disappointed to not get to use them because the mail from them was so slow. That said, if anyone wants so TRU rewards and wants to do a, ahem, trade for them. LMK.

I might have to make a trip there tomorrow. It is a 65 mile drive though and last time I was there they didn't have much of anything.

I think if you return an item that you used rewards on, you only get refunded the amount you paid after rewards. Someone correct me if you actually know though. I'm sure you're correct. In my case, yesterday I bought a second E18 Lawler & Barret using $15 in rewards plus about $10 in cash. I still have my old TRU receipt from before Christmas when I paid cash for a set of E18 at full price. I could make a little profit if I return Jerry and Wade with the old receipt.

That's a bummer if that's true. Guess I'll see if I can use them for a gift card. I'd love to see them stock up for the sale, but I'm sure they'll wait until the week after.

Yes, you won't get the money back with the reward points. I also think it says that you can't buy giftcards, video game hardware and other stuff like formula or something.

This is what my TRU had today Take out all the Elite BOPPVs and replace Del Rio and Bryan with more John Cenas and you have what my TRU looked like today. Would love to get the new BOPPV set while they're on sale, I've got a $50 gift card and I can't even use it.

Well...I'm just screwed then. lol Looks like I'll be stocking up on spares. Those 10% back coupons are worthless for me. Well played Toys R Us....well played.

My TRU stores have stocked up on Basic 22 - I had only seen them at Wal-Mart before this - so at least they have something new for sale I keep hoping they will get Basic 23 or 24 in stock, though - have all the B22 I need.
I used my Rewards money to get a leather jacket for my Muppet Whatnot puppet I got for Xmas - they just didn't have anything else I wanted!

Yeah, I have $14 worth of rewards and my TRU has nothing worth spending them on.

I guess we'll just have to use or rewards $ for gum and candy at the checkout.

I haven't seen a TRU have anything besides E18 Mysterio and Barrett since Dec 23. Most actually have far less (down to and including nothing). This is a terrible time for a WWE sale. Hopefully they get Big Johnny sets in. I couldn't be more annoyed that they only stocked once before Christmas, and really could have done with some of those sets rather than a seemingly endless supply of Elite 18 (which shockingly sold off besides the aforementioned 2). Unless something shocking happens I expect no new WWE stuff at TRU until February, making this sale a total washout. But hey, I guess that I would rather see nothing than 20 Elite 18 Mysterios.
