Ok, i looked at the TRU website this afternoon, and found some items on sale, but most out of stock. So, i travelled to my local TRU to pick up Cybertron Leader Prime. On the shelf he was £39.99.......hmmm on the website he was £19.99, so i took him to customer service, and they confirmed he was £19.99. Yay me!

Now in another que, i saw a granny with grandson buying Leader Megs and a movie voyager, and they saw me so we had a chat, talked about the movie etc etc, and found that the voyager was half price too, but not Leader Megs.

This confused me as the Movie toys didnt show up as being on sale on the website!

So, my bit of fan service is this. If you go to TRU, ask if the TF your picking up is on sale, because they arent advertising it in the TF section, and the old prices are still on the shelf peg!

Also.....and im in no way ashamed about this, as its coming up to Christmas, customer service is paramount, so my £19.99 Cybertron Prime became £9.99 when i complained about the state of the box being dented and battered.

Go on, give it a try, and happy hunting!

The only TRU nearest to me is in Brighton, alas.

But I'll be at the in-laws around new years, so there's bound to be a sale around then.
