I go to the TRU I was at yesterday, the same figure line is $8.49 each. I don't see that occurring at Best Buy, Target or Wal-Mart, so how can Toys R Us justify this practice? It makes absolutely no sense to me.
Target is like that as well with difference prices, I asked them and it's because it depends on how in demand the item is.

Agreed. It's like I want to spend the whole dang thing at once!!!
