Toys ‘R’ Us have announced that they could be reopening their doors only months after closing down.
While many fans of the toy store giant are delighted by the news, others are skeptical and think it may all have been a stunt to get people buying again after a lull in sales.
Genius business decision from Toys “R” Us. Everyone forgot about it and took it for granted, so they started closing stores to get 80s and 90s kids all sad and remember the good times, then open again to get them coming back. Must’ve been the plan all along

According to Café Mom the bankruptcy order on the business has been cancelled and it seems the toy chain are looking to make a comeback.
There have been many cheers since the news broke from nostalgic adults glad that their childhood retailer will be back in action.
On the other hand, many others are convinced it was all for publicity and are not impressed, especially those who could not redeem their gift cards for the store.
“They did this to get people to buy, buy, buy and now they are having a comeback wonder if the gift cards they stopped taking will be good again?”
It’s highly unlikely that it was planned as over 30,000 people lost their jobs when the chain shut down this year so if it were a stunt it was a very risky and drastic one.
Nevertheless we could be seeing those Toys ‘R’ Us ads again very soon.
