Toys ‘R’ Us

Toys ‘R’ Us brings out the inner kid in me. This place has been around ever since I was a little kid and I love it… it’s gone through many changes but remains essentially the same (only kids these days have cooler toys) .
This store is great if you don’t come on the weekends when it is teeming with children and their parents (ugh, children). Weekdays, there’s almost no one and you can run around and mess about with the toy swords and er… get scowled at by annoyed staff.
They have nerf guns, extensive Star Wars lego sets, chess sets, and some standard (but not extensive) board games. You can also get poker chips /​poker starter set here for $ 14 — $ 50 (not bad), amusing birthday presents and really unhealthy processed candy.
They also sell «old-​school» PC games (first-​person shooters such as «Condemned» and strategy games such as «Capitalism II») going for 2 for $ 12… that’s like the price of a movie ticket for 2 solid games!
