Regarding TRU, I will not shop there unless I'm completely out of options looking for an item. The only one that's sort of near me is just awful. The inside is filthy, it's in a high crime area and the parking lot surface is cracked and full of chuck-holes. Also, there is little to no restocking and customer service is on a continuous coffee break.

Apparently I'm not the only one who dislikes TRU as the parking lot is constantly 99% empty on the rare occasion that I have been in there. You'd think the management would take the hint and try to get some better business practices put in place but it never happens. Maybe when they're out of a job the light bulbs may come on but I have my doubts about that occurring.

Most TRU locations are a sad shadow of what they once were. When I was a kid there were parents chasing around their kids because the place was so busy that children were filling aisle to aisle. It was like a giant playground where you're supposed to buy stuff. Now it looks like any other retail store, just with inflated pricing and no real clearance items (everything on clearance is suspiciously overpriced anyway and sits there for years). It's a horrible little place where only old people actually expect to find anything. And they don't, not to my knowledge anyway.
