Toys R Us will close 20% of U.S. stores: Here’s the list
Related to Toys R Us ongoing Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization issues, the toy retailers has made a decision to shutter roughly 20 percent of retail locations within the U.S. If you are searching for toy deals at those locations, going-out-of-business sales will start in February and continue though April 2018.
3 tips for shopping a liquidation sale:
- Use your smartphone to research price points. Liquidators will often set discounts based on the MSRP, not the store’s regular sale price. In the early days of the liquidation, the sale price could actually be higher than normal.
- Timing is important. Liquidation sales typically last 8 to 10 weeks, usually starting at 10% off. Week 3 & 4 are often when stock starts to dwindle, mainly because the discount will rise during those weeks. If you wait to week 6 & beyond, the item you want may already be gone.
- Check the product thoroughly before purchase. Most liquidation sales have a “All Sales are Final” policy, which means no returns. Check to see if all parts are included. Also, use a credit card. If the product is damaged, you can usually dispute the charge and get your money back.
