Toys'R'Us is Closing Down 182 Stores in the U.S.

Today is a sad day. After filing for bankruptcy, Toys’R’Us has announced that they will be shutting down 182 store locations across 40 states in the United States as part of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization plan. This is going to make it a lot harder to be a Toys’R’Us kid.

In a letter distributed this morning to customers, Toys’R’US chairman and CEO Dave Brandon said:

"The actions we are taking are necessary to give us the best chance to emerge from our bankruptcy proceedings as a more viable and competitive company that will provide the level of service and experience you should expect from a market leader."

I hope it works! I have a lot of fond memories of shopping at Toys'R'Us, but I guess this is just part of the signs of the times as more and more people are just buying their toys online. Chances are that one day it will disappear just like Blockbuster Video.

You can expect to see a lot of Toys'R'Us going out of business sales starting early next month. These stores will be completely closed down by mid-April.

Here’s a full list of the locations marked for closure by state that was compiled by USA Today from the court documents. The list includes Toys’R’Us, Babies’R’Us and outlet locations.
