Hello! This is a quick post to inform y'all that Toys R Us has colored sticker clearance items at 90% off. If you've been in TRU this
summer then you know what I'm talking about. They still have regular
clearance prices on some items (no extra % off), the 90% off only applies to
their special summer clearance which used color coded stickers to indicate
the % off discount. Now the color doesn't matter: all brown, blue, green, and yellow price
stickers are 90% off.
Call your TRU before heading out in case
this isn't a nationwide price drop, I don't want anyone to waste gas
and time checking it out.
60% off TRU finds (June)
In June I picked up some Bratzillaz, La
Dee Da, and Cutie Pops dolls at 60% off. I am guessing most of the brown sticker dolls from June
are long gone, but you might get lucky.

| I told myself I'd buy these two if I found them on clearance, not thinking I would -- lucky find! |
I'm turning into my mother, I plan to make a simple black skirt for Victoria, the doll on the left. What can I say, her outfit looks incomplete to me. :) I didn't want to buy these dolls when they were $20 but $8? Yes! They are my two favorite Bratzillaz, even if Victoria needs some guidance in the clothing department. I don't know if this line is taking a break along with the regular Bratz but I'm looking forward to seeing what MGA does with them next.
70% off TRU finds (July)
Two or three weeks ago I picked up these Little Miss Matched outfits at 70% off, they might still be at some TRU stores because I don't think these dolls were all that popular (I could be wrong). These outfits will provide some new pieces for my Moxie Teenz, they are always in need of new clothes.
You can see the brown clearance stickers in these photos, so you know what to look for. Remember the price shown is the original price, you will take 90% off now (or whatever your TRU has brown stickers listed at).
90% off TRU finds (August)
Yesterday (August 1st) I bought the following items at 90% off. With the exception of the La Dee
Da dog these were the last of their kind on the shelf (and they only had two dogs). So don't delay,
check out your TRU this weekend if you're curious to see what's still available.
90% off prices
Novi Stars children's socks,
60 cents -- The
alien fabric could be turned into a cute Moxie Teenz dress. There's two
pairs of socks in this one package: one pair features the alien on both socks and there's a
black pair speckled with faint dots to look like a field of stars.
Cutie Pops fashion pack,
$1.10 -- some pieces fit Monster High. Your store might still have the hair pieces and pop packs as well, those disappeared when the sale hit 70% off last month (I may have bought a few then). I was VERY surprised to see these outfits at 90% off.
La Dee Da fashion pack,
$1.00 -- LDD dresses fit Monster High. I have a couple other LDD outfits so I felt very fortunate to find two I didn't already own at such a great price.
La Dee Da dog,
70 cents -- comes with a purple rose for a doll to hold
BFC Ink fashion pack,
60 cents -- There's a doll in my closet that might be able to wear this outfit, it was so cheap I decided to throw it in the cart too.
Target clearance
After hunting high and low for clearance items at TRU I headed over to Target because I've heard murmurs online about their summer clearance in the doll aisles. It looks like I missed most of the good stuff but I did find these two Wizard of Oz Dorothy dolls on their second round of clearance:
Target's prices went from $14.99 -> $7.48 ->
$4.48 (doll in slim box, the dog is a cardboard cut-out) and $22.99 -> $11.48 ->
$6.88 (Dorothy & Toto). These sweet girls haven't been available long but Target wants to clear them out anyway. Both dolls have the same facepaint and hairstyle, the only difference is the dress and dog. They even have the same cute cowboy boots.
You can read a great review of these Legends of Oz dolls (and see much better photos!) over at:

I hope you have found some great summer clearance deals as well!
Here's a throwback photo of two Cuties wearing the same Cutie Pops outfits I bought yesterday at TRU.
OK, I bought doll clothing I already own but they were only $1.10 each!
I left them on the shelf when they were 70% off, but I couldn't say no
at 90%.
I have a Mattel doll from the Goodwill that needs a spa day to look her best, I'll record her transformation and share it with you soon! :) Thanks for stopping by.
