I have a toysrus gift card. Can I buy toys equal to the amount on the gift card and return them to get cash?

I want to get cash without having to sell the card on a online auction and lose 20% of its value.

    They’ll probably note on the receipt it was a gift card. They ain’t dumb these days.

    Probably not b/c they will see on your receipt that you used a giftcard and just offer you an in store credit.

    No you cannot. The receipt itself will state that the purchase was made with a gift card. Returning it will result in a credit to your gift card or a store credit.

    i doubt it.

    If you buy the toy then retrun it, the recipet says you purchased with a gift card, and they will put the money back on the gift card. Its how companies make their money.

    Hmmmm, I’ve not run into that problem before. I guess you could try it and let us know the outcome!

    Probably not. If you present the receipt from when you purchased the toys, they will return your funds in the same manner you paid for the original purchase. If you return them without the receipt at all, they will probably give you a gift card anyway.

    Find a soccer mom that shops at Toys R Us regularly. Sell her the card for a $5 discount. Consider it a transaction fee for her helping you out. A good deal is one that benefits both sides.

    no – they’ll issue a store credit. Why not sell it to a friend with kids instead?

    no

    most stores now give a gift card to their store for future purchases rather than cashback.

    it ensures that you HAVE to shop with them to use the money.

    if you really need the cash, find someone to buy the card from you.

    This will depend on the stores policy, O recommend that you confirm it first but normally this is a no, no sorry !!

    NO….you would have to show them the original receipt. Generally store terms allow you to receive the same currency type that was used for the original purchase. If you paid cash you would get a cash refund, if you paid with a gift card…your refund would be a gift card. If you don’t have a receipt stores now gift you a gift card instead of cash.
    Here is their return policy….I found on the web
