piss on TRU…they can have buy 1 get 5 free on all RoC, but its not worth a crap when all they have is the leftovers of the intial offerings that were stocked back on july 4th.
on top of that, its pretty obvious that TRU doesnt adhere to any sort of “competitive pricing” theories. my WM is at $5 for singles and target is $5.99….TRU? $7.99.
TRU does NOT match ads either.
Last I checked, my TRU is where I have found a vast majority of actual product I have purchased, and most of it on sale below the Walmart prices. The only purchases I have made from Wally have been their exclusives. Looking over my TRU virtual shopping cart it looks like all the “new” stuff is in there too. Save yer piss for the p-o-t-t-y?
