Grandma too young for Toys R Us discount  

This is ridiculous. They should have just called it a senior's coupon then. They can't give out a coupon and then add all kinds of restrictions to it. They're just going to confuse and frustrate their customers.

I don't agree with their decision. I mean, being a grandparent at a younger age, does not diminish the fact that you are a grandparent. I mean, some people are grandparents in their 30's, so does that make them any less of a grandparent? Are grandparents supposed to be old and wrinkley?

I don't get it and it feels like a big sterotype that is discriminatory to me. I don't think I'd shop there anymore especially after that little mess up. That's just stupid.

Heck yes that's discrimination! That's not right at all. Who are they to imply that there's a certain "normal" or "standard" age that one should and would become a grandparent?! Absurd...absolutely absurd. If I were her, I'd fight for my cause. They should have stated the promotion and coupon differently if they were going to put age limits on it. Like the late great Bob Marley said...Get up, stand up...Stand up for your rights. I really hope she does something because they shouldn't be allowed to get away with that.

I think this is very discriminatory. There is no possible way to put an age limit on being a grandparent. My parents are in their 40's and have 9 grandchildren with the 10th one due in a few months. There has got to be something that this grandma can do. They have no right to say that she is too young to be a grandma and to put age restrictions on being a grandparent. This is very wrong. I would advise this grandma to seek legal advice and find out what she can do. I would not let this go.

Its quite sad that she was turned down by the store. I knew people who were grandparents when they were in their late 30's. Toys R Us is being discriminatory. No twos about it.

well, since it is a promotion, i think Toys R Us had the right to put an age limit on the coupon as long as it is stated very clearly... if she is too young to use it, she should know from the start as the age is stated very clearly there... and since Toys R Us is the promoter, of course they have the right to put the terms and conditions just like any other store who hold promotions... take care and have a nice day...

Wow. That is messed up. I don't think there should be an age limit on the coupon. If you are a grandparent then you are a grandparent. Period. I agree with the first response, it should be a seniors coupon. I cut that one out for my grandma to use but she is likr 72 so she don't have to worry I guess.

Totally ridiculos. You either are a grandparent, or you are not. If this discount was for grandparents she had all the rights to use it. Big mistake from Toys R Us in my opinion, they should not let things like this happen, they will all come to publicity after all.

ToysRUS is wrong for doing this, since when does being a grandparent have an age limit?? If it does my kids and myself didnt know about it as Im 43 and I have 10 grandchildren. Im pretty sure that there are alot of younger grandparents out there.

Im glad to be informed of this as I will make sure not to do any of my shopping there for Birthdays, Christmas or for anything else as I think it is wrong.

Wow that might make me think twice about getting things for my grandkids at toys-R-us. i dont agree with that policy , I was a grandmother at 36 so i dont believe grandparent hood should be defined by a number.Makes me wonder what they will come up with next.
