Toys R Us: *HOT* Deal on The Lion King and Dumbo Blu-ray/DVD Combo Packs

WARNING: Reading the deal scenario below may cause your head to swirl and may cause you to utter “HUH?!” uncontrollably. Please proceed at your own risk!  


Before I share this *HOT* deal for ya, please note that the deal scenario below is quite confusing but should make for a sweet deal if you follow the steps exactly. I have not personally purchased the items, so I cannot share my own experience with you; I am simply sharing deal scenarios that I created based on several emails that I received from readers along with info collected from the Toys R Us Weekly Ad. OK, now on to the deal which shows how you can snag The Lion King Diamond Edition Combo Pack and Dumbo DVD/Blu-ray Combo Pack for a very hip price!

Step 1 (Reserving The Lion King)

Head to your local Toys R Us Store and reserve a copy of Disney’s The Lion King Diamond Edition Combo Pack for $5. By reserving your copy, you will instantly save $8 off any Disney Blu-ray priced at $19.99 or higher.

Step 2  (Purchase Disney Blu-ray priced at $19.99+)

* Consider purchasing Disney’s Dumbo DVD/Blu-ray Combo Pack on sale for $19.99 through September 24th.
* Use the $5/1 coupon found here
* Instantly save $8 on your purchase since you reserved The Lion King in Step #1
* Pay $6.99 for Dumbo + $5 to reserve The Lion King
IMPORTANT: Step 1 + Step 2 must occur in the same transaction!

Step 3 (Pick up The Lion King on October 4th)

* Head back to your local Toys R Us Store beginning October 4th to pick up The Lion King for $29.99
* Reserve your copy of Cars 2 4-Disc Combo Pack for $5 (this movie will be released on November 1st) and you’ll instantly save $10 off any Disney Blu-ray priced at $19.99 or higher
* Use the $5/1 Lion King coupon found in every Subway Kids Meal
* Pay $5 to reserve Cars 2 + pay $9.99 for The Lion King (after you deduct $5 reserve fee that you paid in Step #2, $5 Subway coupon and the $10 instant savings after reserving Cars)
Total Out of Pocket Costs: $5 (reserve fee for Lion King) + $6.99 (for Dumbo) + $5 (reserve fee for Cars 2) + $9.99 (remaining payment for Lion King) = $26.98 for 2 Disney Blu-ray DVD/Combo Packs + $5 Cars 2 Reserve fee!!!!

Step 4 (Pick up Cars 2 4-Disc Combo Pack on November 1st)

* By the time that you pick up Cars 2 in November, there will likely be both a coupon available to save on your purchase PLUS Toys R Us will likely be offering up another promo when you reserve a copy of another Disney movie and so the savings continue….

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please check with your local store about the Cars 2 4-Disc Combo Pack Reserve promo where you instantly save $10 off any Disney Blu-ray priced at $19.99 or higher when you reserve your copy of Cars 2 for $5. I spoke with a local store representative who stated this promo would be taking place; however, she was not sure of the start date of the promo. In Step #3, I make the assumption that the Cars 2 Reserve Promo will be available on October 4th when you pick up your copy of The Lion King. However, this may not be the case so please keep this in mind.
