“Since it's complete liquidation in 2018, the Toys R Us brand was seemingly dead. However, following its revival in 2019 with brand new stores, it appeared that the brand had a new lease on life. But, even that resurgence was plagued with issues and now with new owners, #ToysRUs is back for a third time!”

À compter de demain, Toys’R’Us n’acceptera plus les cartes-cadeaux.
If you have a Toys “R” Us Canada gift card, today is your last day to use it. The toy store chain has said it will cease accepting gift cards after Monday. The move is part of the creditor protection proceedings the beleaguered retailer began earlier in the month as it struggled to pay bills. […]
"One notable drag on its books is a vast amount of unredeemed gift cards. According to the court documents, as of late November, Toys “R” Us had roughly $36 million in outstanding gift card obligations. The company is asking for the court’s approval to honour the cards for a period of 14 days."
