You know about the buy one get one 50% off sale at Toys R Us, but you don't know about this story. Click through for more!



On my way back from my long-winded trek looking for the Naboo Starfighter at Tuesday Morning, I stopped at Toys R Us in Burlington, NJ. There hanging on the pegs was one lowly Imperial Navy Commander. The bubble was smashed and the card back wasn't perfect. Sadly, I couldn't find another figure to make use of the special, and since I like deals I was slightly disappointed I couldn't make use of the promotion. While present, the only Movie Heroes figures left were Super Battle Droids, I could have added this figure to utilize the special. (Um, no.)

So I politely asked the manager if there was any possibility that I could get a partial discount on the one figure since there weren't any others (that I would buy obviously) to take advantage of the special. He actually apologized for not having a thicker selection and graciously gave me the Imperial Navy Commander for a mere $4.99 (a full 50% off)! He didn't have to do that for me and it certainly isn't his fault that the figures aren't arriving into the store.

You never know how a polite question can reap benefits or rewards for you. (Nor should you have any expectations it will.) Always act with a smile and maybe you too can get a fantastic deal like this as well one day!
