“We continue to look for ways to make shopping with Toys “R” Us more convenient for our customers throughout China,” said Mark Murphy, managing director, Toys “R” Us, China. “Offering gift cards provides the opportunity to let the recipient choose their own special gift, whether they’re celebrating a birthday, the New Year, Children’s Day, a successful semester at school or welcoming a new baby.”
