Oh yeah, I wanted to mention that the way the system works, the 50% off can extend onto a 4th toy:

Example, you buy 4 20$ deluxes

1st toy is full price: 20
2nd toy is 50% off due to BOGO: 10
3rd toy is free due to the coupon: 0
4th toy is 50% off due to BOGO: 10

So with the current sale and the coupon, you get 4 deluxes for 40$.

How would this work? and I don't get how you could get 4 dlx for $31? I can't try this as I already got my future dlxs but this doesn't add up? or does it lol! dun dun dun!

Buying 4 deluxes right now and handing the buy 2 get 1 free gets you 4 deluxes for 40$ since 1 is free and 2 are 50% off.

Another user also added extra coupons and discounts. There is a 10% off you get for signing up for the R card, a 10% off coupon for winter savings and a 15% off R card coupon. I dont know which the user used but if they alowed 2 of those you coudl end up with 31$.

It would be 40$ plus 10% discount + 15% R coupon which makes it 30.6$ for 4 deluxes.

I wont be trying this, but was curious to see how they got to 31$ and thats likely how.

Here is how I did it:

1) Buy 1 Deluxe 19.99
2) Buy second 9.99
3) Buy third 19.99
4) buy fourth 9.99
5) Apply -15% coupon, total is 50.9745
6) Apply -$20 coupon (not buy 2 get 1 free), final total comes to 30.9745.

The trick is, -$20 coupon is equivalent to 40% off, provided your total is close to $50, while buy 2 get 1 free is 33% off. In this case my total is very close to $50 after I apply the -15% coupon, so the discount is maximized.

Oh and I don't think 10% off Rclub, 15% off Hasbro from email, 10% Hasbro from coupon can be used together, as they are the same type of coupon ("applied to total" type). I must admit I never tried to use them together in a store, but that's just too much trouble to ask for a cashier. I already felt uncomfortable when applying the extra 15% on top of coupon. Cashier said it would not work but it actually did. It makes me feel like I was exploiting glitches in their system.

oh damn! Ok ya it's too much coupons to ask them to try.

Well that is what we are all doing here. But, to be fair, they do have the coupons available right at the front desk during this BOGO event so they are willfuly abling us to use them. Granted, the coupons are Hasbro's, not theirs, so I dont think they lose any money from the use of coupons. Maybe thats why this is all so nonchalant in their system.

Lets just keep this civil. If Toys”R”Us is willing to allow the stacking of these coupons no one has anything to feel bad about. How we may feel individually about the situation is irrelevent and off topic
