This has been on the cards for some time
https://news.sky.com/story/toys-r-us...-risk-11156256 [Toys R Us said it aimed to begin closing UK stores from the spring 2018] [Toys R Us has announced plans to shut at least 26 stores in the UK, placing around 800 jobs - a quarter of its workforce - at risk in the weeks before Christmas. The company, which has been loss-making for several years amid a string of pressures from expensive, largely out-of-town shop premises to strong competition, said there would be no changes over the crucial festive season.] Last edited by arista; 04-12-2017 at 04:16 PM. |

I have a soft spot for Toys R Us due to my childhood memories, but it is gonna struggle to adapt to the Internet age where sites like Amazon have tons of toys in stock that you can buy instead.
I do hope though that Toys R Us can sort their problems out.
