I was at Toys'R'Us this evening, on the eve of their last day of business. It was a sad affair. A whole department store was consolidated into three isles. The rest was roped off with "Do-Not-Cross" police tape. There might have been three dozen items left for sale. Other customers were audibly grumbling about the same thing - nothing to buy except some twelve packs of My Little Pony Extra Glittery Hair Barrettes.

It was a sad ending to an impressive dynasty, an American stalwart for 30K jobs ... poof ! No more "pink Barbie isle". No more "Lego isle". No more "Nerf isle".

Auf wiedersehen TRU, we're going to miss you. We have many happy memories in your stores. Pew, pew, pew.
