I know, I know; I’ve posted Cranium deals before. But who doesn’t love Cranium? It’s wacky family fun! In a box! And it doesn’t make me want to kill myself the way Candyland does.
Right now many Cranium products are marked down at Toys ‘R’ Us. The Cranium Primo Edition is just $9.97, down from $39.99. And Cranium Hoopla
is only $5.99, down from $16.99. (I know, the holidays are over. Think gift closet; the former is great for almost anyone, and the latter is a great birthday party gift for the kids.)
If you haven’t yet succumbed to the lure of Google Checkout, you can sign up and get $10 off your first purchase, making the deals even sweeter. And really, can you put a price on not having to play Chutes and Ladders for the umpteenth time, anyway?
Sad! Primo “temporarily unavailable online”!
Bah, neither of them are available online now. They seem to be taking a page from Amazon’s book. 😛
I rarely if ever shop at TRU online now because everything i want seems to be ‘not available online’– even things that come back when i do a Froogle search.
A couple of other cautions about TRU. Be careful when using google checkout, as you can’t cancel or change the order (normally you can within the hour) because of (the lady on the phone said) some bug in their system.
At christmas i ordered some items, and realized i make a mistake and tried to change the order online. I called a couple of days later and apparently the change was lost in lala land, and the order had already been shipped (minus one item which was apparently out of stock).
The lady was nice enough to refund me my shipping for the mistake, so that was good, but i’m highly unimpressed with the TRU website, compared to the old one through amazon.
