DawnL Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 They have this every year and apparently this is the week. The sale is for markers, crayons, and construction paper. It's a bummer they never seem to include colored pencils, but it's still an awesome deal. I think I will go tomorrow and stock up on giant marker packs.

That's about the cheapest I have seen them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acorn Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I was just at Toysrus to buy markers and the power went out. There was a little back up lighting and eventually they could run one cash register on the generator power. I was really debating whether the sale was worth it, but I have never found washable markers at a good price anywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BinahYeteirah Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 The colored pencils looked like they were on sale yesterday when I stopped in TRU. I decided not to get any, because I want to try the erasable colored pencils for my kids' workbook exercises, and they didn't have those. We have Prismacolor pencils for artwork, so I want something a little cheaper and more practical for school work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tess in the Burbs Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 yes! I stocked up. Last time I did this was years ago! Finally needed more. And since I have only 2 kids we really have way more than we need until high school lol!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Michelle* Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 If you "like" Crayola on Facebook, you can download a coupon from their page for $1 off a $5 purchase. May make the deal even better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitterpatter Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Yes, I bought a pack. No limit that I know of. We bought nine products total. Are dry erase crayons included?

BinahYeteirah Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 So, how much do they end up being per box? Is it a better deal than Walmart? Sandy The prices are regular retail for Toys R Us, so buy 1, get 2 makes them a third of the price. I think it's a good deal. I am not sure about Walmart's prices, but it might be similar to a good Walmart sale. I think the prices with this sale should be lower than the regular Walmart prices, but, again, I do not know their prices very well, since I rarely shop there.

thundersweet Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I think at Walmart last year they were around .97 cents. I remember one year they were 20 cents. Now that was a good deal! Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitterpatter Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 In my area, the products I bought were $4.99 or $5.99. So, each product was either $1.66 or $2.00 each. I mostly bought Twistables and Pipsqueak items, so a great deal, as they are never cheap at Wal-Mart. Someone posted a coupon, so even better, if you use that. So, how much do they end up being per box? Is it a better deal than Walmart? Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFJ in IL Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Thanks for posting this! I never would have known about this amazing sale!! Totally stocked up for the year now :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beth83 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 So, how much do they end up being per box? Is it a better deal than Walmart? Sandy Crayola pencils are not included in this deal. I bought some, returned bc my bill wa off, and was told the sale only included crayons, markers, and paper. I did buy 3 boxes of crayons for 1.29, which made each box of 24 crayons around 50 cents.

hands-on-mama Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 My local Pynlix has 24 packs of crayola crayons 3/$1. That ended up being a better price. They also had markers BOGO, Elmer's white glue 3/$1 and glue sticks too. I gutsiest, but not a ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnL Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share Posted July 14, 2012 Are dry erase crayons included? Is there a limit to the number of items you can buy under this deal? I believe the dry erase crayons are included and there's no limit that I have seen. And unfortunately the pencils are not included :( I've found that Toys R Us prices are typically more than the prices at Walmart. However, with this deal, the cost per item is much less than at Walmart. I know if you get a 24 pack of crayons, it's just as good to get it during back to school sales at Walmart or Target, because the 24 pack is the one size that's always on sale. But any other size, such as 48, 64, or more crayons, this Toys R Us sale is a good sale. Also, the Washable markers never seem to be included in the back to school sales. It's always just the 10 pack of the non-washable markers and I've never seen the Pip Squeaks markers on sale, either. So for anything other than the non-washable 10 pack of Crayola markers, this Toys R Us sale is a good one. The sale ends today, Saturday, 7/14. If they follow past years, this upcoming week should see the Crayola buy 1 get 1 free. Still a good deal, but not as awesome as getting 2 free, of course. I hope everyone is enjoying the back to school sales! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
