I felt worse when KB Toys went under tbqh

Toys R Us has been way too expensive for as long as I can remember. My stores selection went to shit when they combined it with Kids R Us too.

They sure fucked it by refusing to use the internet or ever doing sales. They had it all, and could have easily stayed relevant with even a little effort.

Kmart in my area already has a going out of business sale going on. 20 - 30% off.

And after some price comparisons. It's still around the same prices as walmart or higher.

Yeah. KB Toys going under was worse. Even as a kid I hated going into Toys 'R Us. I liked seeing their christmas catalogue to see what I wanted as a kid. And their little jingle was memorable. But going there was a nightmare. Always screaming bratty kids throwing tantrums with parents that couldn't care less. I mean even at 10 I felt like that environment was all the evidence needed to want to sterilize the world or at the very least make people have to get licensed to have kids.

Yeah, KB Toys was the biggest loss. But those 80s Toy R Us jingles certainly induce the feels.

Kmart's been in trouble for years, even before Sears bought them.

And I literally (like 5 minutes ago) just saw this on Twitter.

Regardless, all it did was poison both. Thus, Sears/Kmart is next, unless they manage to zombie around while Penny or Macy's goes tits-up.

Maybe letting it die is just the thing the brand needed, so that it'll eventually start bleeding over the border from the not-quite-so-screwed Canadian branch.

The stores in those regions were bought out by a private company, so they will remain unaffected.
