Toys R Us Catalogue This Week

Toys R Us catalogue 2026: how the weekly specials and Black Friday pages reach you

Toys R Us in South Africa puts out its offers as a digital catalogue, and the listings we hold show two kinds of edition running side by side. The first is a ten-page specials catalogue for 15 to 21 October 2026, a proper one-week window. The second is a single-page Black Friday notification that runs from 20 October to 26 November 2026, so it works more as a heads-up than a full catalogue. We hold too few editions to name a usual start day, so go by the printed dates.

The official site also carries a link to a Christmas 2026 flyer, which tells you the retailer treats the festive run as its own big moment. If you are hunting for the Toys R Us catalogue 2026, our Toys R Us catalogue this week page is the quickest way to flip through the latest scans without hunting across the shop.

Is Toys R Us really a South African business?

Yes, and the setup is a little unusual. The Toys R Us and Babies R Us brands in South Africa are privately owned by Michmir Investments, which trades through Amic Trading under a licence from the global brand owner, according to Business Report. The footer of toysrus.co.za still shows a copyright line for Tru Kids Inc, which is the licensor side of that arrangement. In other words, the shop on your local mall floor is run by a South African company, not shipped in as an overseas branch.

Growth has been recent. In August 2025 the group agreed to buy 13 Toy Zone stores in Gauteng and Durban, and the Competition Commission approved it that same week. The deal lifts the chain to 61 outlets, and each acquired store is being converted into a combined Toys R Us and Babies R Us shop. If you also shop for newborns, the same footprint feeds into Babies R Us specials and catalogue.

Toys R Us return policy in South Africa, in plain terms

This is the question people type most, and the retailer answers it clearly on its own site. You have 60 days from purchase to return an item, and a defective item can come back for up to six months. The product should be in its original, factory-sealed packaging, and you need proof of purchase. Every return is assessed before a final decision is made.

• Returns can be made at any Toys R Us or Babies R Us store.
• Cash and debit card payments are refunded the same way, and the original card must be present for card refunds.
• Gift receipts and Buy Now Pay Later purchases are refunded to a gift card.
• Refunds can take five to ten working days to show, depending on your bank.

Some things cannot go back: gift cards and e-vouchers, used apparel, scratched discs, opened formula or food, breast pumps and feeding items with broken seals, and Pokemon trading card products. Remote returns by courier collection are possible too, but carry a fee and up to 21 days for assessment.

Rewards Club, gift cards and ways to pay

The loyalty scheme is called Rewards R Us on the site. The page says you get one profile for store and online, with up to three kids on a single membership. You can sign up online and get a virtual card straight away, or scan the QR code at the till in store. The page does not spell out how points are earned, so read the terms before you count on a particular benefit.

Gift cards are sold online and there is a balance-check page, which is handy because people often search for this before a birthday. For payment, the site mentions a Pay Your Way option with now-or-later choices; shoppers also type questions like does Toys R Us use Payflex and does Toys R Us use Pay Just Now, and the answer is whatever appears at checkout on the day, so look there rather than trusting an old forum post.

Delivery and click and collect for Toys R Us shoppers

People ask does Toys R Us deliver because December gets hectic. The website advertises same-day delivery in selected areas, free delivery on orders over R700, and parcel tracking through Aramex. There is also free Click and Collect with same-day pickup advertised, which suits the parent who spots a special in the catalogue at lunch and wants it in hand by evening. Terms differ by area, so the checkout page is the final word.

Opening hours, Sundays and what we can and cannot say

Many searches for Toys R Us opening hours, or whether it is open on a Sunday, lead to overseas results, because the brand trades in Singapore, Canada and elsewhere. For South Africa, hours follow the mall or centre the shop sits in, so use the Find a Store link on toysrus.co.za for the branch near you. We have not found an official statement of Sunday or public-holiday hours for the whole chain, so we will not guess.

Getting the most from the catalogue

A sensible routine is to read the Toys R Us specials catalogue early in the week, then compare with Game catalogue specials if you want a second opinion on the same toy or console. For a wider view of toy and general merchandise shopping, browse the discount and general merchandise stores hub, since Toys R Us is a specialist toy retailer and we file it there for lack of a closer category. The full list of South African retailers sits on the South Africa catalogues page.
