A wise old man once said this to his business mentees in 2010: “Businesses are going to disrupted. In my projection, these businesses would be part of history by the year 2019: bike-sharing, television, print newspapers, books, VCDs, salted egg yolk everything and Goody Feed.”
A wise young man raised his hand then, asking, “How about toys, my dear wise one?”
The wise old man stroked his white beard and shook this heard so slowly, people wondered if there was some connection problem. “No. Toys will always be there.”

“Why?”
“Because I said so. And because whenever there’s a toy sale, there’d be tons of people as they make good gifts compared to an iPad.”
Fast forward to 2019, and a toy sale, as predicted by the wise old man, has surfaced.
Toy”R”Us Half-Price Promotion
Over in the US, Toy”R”Us has become part of history, and Geoffrey, the mascot for Toy”R”Us, has found a new job at a children’s hospital.
(No, I kid you not, the iconic statue in Toy”R”Us HQ has moved to Bristol-Meyers Squibb Children’s Hospital)
But here in Singapore, it’s still bringing joy to kids, and for the next few days, it’s going to bring joy to adults, too.
Because some toys are going at half price.
And it’s in all outlets (and online, too).

By the way, we’re not talking about toys you’ve not heard of.
We’re talking about toys like this LEGO set that you shouldn’t buy for a Marvel fan…
…or of course, the ever-popular NERF gun so kids can train for NS even before they hit puberty.
And because their outlet in Grand World Centre is reopening, you’ll also get to throw your kids in the area bring your kids there to meet Geoffrey and friends.
Christmas is less than eleven months away, so now is the best time to stock up on Christmas gifts!
