well, if it doesn't exist in murica...
. Seriously though, in a recent episode of The Simpsons, they did a mock up of one of those old contests, where one lucky kid would try to fill up his shopping cart with as much as he could in 5 minuets. Of course the Simpsons version twisted it, (Krusty Toy store instead of TRU) and had 3 contestants (Bart, Ralph & Milhouse), it was more a race, rather than a timed event, and only one of the 3 kids would get to keep all the stuff they grabbed.
My instant reaction was to feel sad in that most kids wont even understand the reference. But I guess that would only be kids in the US.
---And honestly, I'm not jealous. I am saddened at the closing here, but genuinely happy for others that still have TRU available to them. There are still articles about the potential return in the U.S. via website sometime this fall, and KB toy stores possibly returning....I know not every one of them is newsworthy, until something more definitive comes forth.
Also for the record, everyone says Blockbuster Video has been dead for years (it basically is...
), but there is still one store left in operation
