Toys R Us Australia is now a thing of the past...

After making a post about this yesterday, it is sad to say this, but there is no more Toys R Us in Australia.

The website over the last few hours of operation until now...


4 Aug 2018/Aug 4, 2018 5:00 PM EDT/17:00 EDT(Big discounts)


4 Aug 2018/Aug 4, 2018 8:00 PM EDT/20:00 EDT(Final hours, biggest discounts)


5 Aug 2018/Aug 5, 2018 9:00 AM EDT/09:00 EDT(Company is dead)

As you can see, the discounts were very high from 70-80% OFF and during the final hours 80% OFF AND MORE! But as seen on the capture from 5 Aug 2018/Aug 5, 2018 9:00 AM EDT/09:00 EDT, the website says "Don't ever grow up!" with Geoffrey the Giraffe and the messages "Thanks to all the Toys R Us Kids in Australia for 25 years of fun!" and "Toys R Us & Babies R Us stores in Australia are no longer trading" which in short form means they're out of business.

RIP Toys R Us Australia 1993-2018

P.S. Toys R Us Australia didn't survive nearly as long as the US brand; Toys R Us Australia survived for 25 years; the American Toys R Us survived for 70 years.

2nd P.S. 2018 has just been a hard year for retail, with Amazon, Target, and Walmart ruling and beating everybody else.

Fun Fact about me: I bought a portable charger on Target on 1 Aug 2018/Aug 1, 2018 because I lost my other one, but I found my other one on 3 Aug 2018 /Aug 3, 2018, so I just wasted $40 on nothing.
