What's left of Toys R Us is returning for the holidays, with Geoffrey's Toy Box setting up shop this month in about Kroger stores in nearly 30 states, the nation's largest supermarket chain said Friday. The grocery chain is the latest retailer to make a play for former Toys R Us shoppers. Walmart and Target are expanding their toy sections, and Amazon is sending physical toy catalogs to customers. The move at Kroger's is not entirely a surprise, given the bankrupt retailer's mascot, Geoffrey the Giraffe, in April made an unexpected -- and for some unwelcome -- appearance at a toy industry trade show, seemingly sent by a group of lenders that controls the bankrupt retailer's intellectual property and is planning a second act.

The differences however were many, for one the stores used temporary racks and shelving, similar to what you would find in a Halloween Costume Conversion. Other costing saving measures included keeping the store minimally staffed, un-staged, not using displays, and limited signage. Around 10,00 square feet or about the size of a small Dollar Store. Another location which you can see a video of was a reused Bed Bath and Beyond in Philadelphia Mills Mall which was open by Fall of A few other stores were underperforming locations that TRU had closed but not been able to sublet. Including a location in California , and one in New Jersey that would never end up opening.
