Re: Hasbro Summer Savings - 2018

I only collect TFs but since there ar some star wars toys the US isnt getting (yet) a freind asked me to pick him up some TRU exclusives in the black series. Since they are Hasbro products I went to the cash with the coupons but they did not work. Turns out the coupons (and the stuff we received by e-mail) are for Hasbro brands only and Star Wars (and Marvel) are not Hasbro brands. Bummer because those exclusives are expensive as fawk.

They are Hasbro, but they are not one of the product lines listed on those coupons. If you look at the pictures on the coupon booklet its limited to TF, Nerf, Ponies and Disney Princesses and some others, but not Star Wars and I guess not all Marvel. I guess they dont want people fawking around with high end collectors Star Wars stuff, but much of it I find just shelf warms no?

Yeah, those black series has been on clearance for at least half a year.

If you want to exploit the coupon, you gotta do it right: Use all three coupons to get $98.6 off on each figure. You can then return or re-sell the other 2 since you need to buy 3 to get this deal.

A lot of TRU locations don't allow you to stack them (and certainly not online) so buy 2 get 1 free is the best deal.

Re: Hasbro Summer Savings - 2018

TRU is getting quite strict with the Hasbro coupons. I just purchased Rodimus Unicronus. They have that 20% sale going on currently for transformers between $29.99 and $69.99. He was $55.96 with the sale. I tried using the $20 off coupon on him, but the cashier refused it because of the sale. Her manager also said the same thing. I ended up having to use the 10% off coupon. This is odd because I've always been able to use the Hasbro coupons with sale items, that's how I bought my Movie Masterpiece figures.

I also purchased Predaking at another TRU and a somewhat similar situation happened. I heard other people saying they were able to stack coupons to buy Predaking. I tried using the R club coupon ($25.00 off of $50 or more) and the $20.00 off Hasbro coupon but they told me the register only accepts one coupon. This situation is more understandable because the rule really is only one coupon per transaction, but the one with the sale items is kind of unfair since they always accepted the coupons, regardless of the sale.

Oh well, that was my rant, lol. Be weary of using the Hasbro coupons during sales.

Re: Hasbro Summer Savings - 2018

Yes, before alot of staff did not fully understand how the coupons worked and people took the advantage for really amazing prices on TFs. The only coupon of the three that you can use during a sale is the No Restrictions 10% off coupon..all of the rules are written on the back and they were never suppose to stack them. Considering they are still close to shutting down TRUs remaining stores worldwide if they dont turn a profit, I can see why they are following the regulations of those coupons more directly now.

For sure, that makes sense. Though, they have increased the price on the POTP leader and voyager figures, so even with the sale and the 10% off coupon, it's not much savings.

I just got POTP Rodimus, SS Blackout, and RID Groundbreaker today and the girl who served me wouldn't let me use two coupons at once. She scanned and used the $20 off for the two big ones, but said she couldn't add the 10% off on top.
I argued that it says "No Exclusions", but apparently that doesn't count other coupons, except that it should!
Then she tried to use the 10% on the RID, and it wouldn't take it because it was already on sale.


I call bullshit!! I don't know if I should bitch at Hasbro or at TRU!!!
