Toys R Us: Stacking Coupons to Your Advantage!

Around this time every year, Grandma Debbie gives us a Toys R Us Friends and Family coupon for 20% off a $75 or more purchase. The discount applies to almost everything except gift cards, formula, diapers, video game hardware, etc.

With coupon in hand, I went to our local store last night and got all this, plus this wooden baby gate for....

Drum roll......

And don't forget that before any other coupons were applied, I received 20% off of everything by using the coupon Grandma Debbie gave us! Keep in mind that for many stores, you are able to use both a store coupon, and a manufacturer coupon on the same item. That's what I did at TRU last night.

I also swiped my Rewards "R" Us card so my purchases go towards earning FREE TRU money. I'm sure I'll earn even more R Us Rewards this holiday season too!
