Neighbourhood Toy Store Day

Saturday, November 12th is Neighbourhood Toy Store Day!  The Toy Jungle & Toybox, as proud members of both Neighbourhood Toy Stores of Canada (NETS) and the American Specialty Toy Retailing Association (ASTRA) will join other independently owned toy stores across Canada in celebrating the first ever national Neighbourhood Toy Store Day.

 Independent toy store owners belonging to NETS (www.neighbourhoodtoystores.ca) will use this day of fun, prizes and giveaways, to showcase the quality of their products and demonstrate the high level of customer service to be expected on every store visit. They also hope shoppers will be reminded of the unique shopping experience offered by local businesses and the many contributions these make to their community. 
 
As part of the Neighbourhood Toy Store Day celebration, the Toy Jungle and Toybox will offer a gift for EVERY purchase made.  We will also be holding a WOW play day from 11:00am to 3:00pm in front of our temporary games and puzzles location in Coquitlam Centre (under the escalator next to customer service).  The first 100 kids to come for our play day will get a free WOW Clippity Clop Farmer!
 
Independent toy retailers make multiple contributions to the uniqueness and well-being of their communities. In addition to creating local jobs and using the services of other local business such as accountants, they give their community a distinct flavour and help make it an appealing destination for tourists and new residents. They enrich their communities by supporting local sports, school initiatives and child-related charities; they allow for a broader choice of products by stocking novel, innovative products that chain and ‘big box’ stores tend not to carry; they embellish community spirit through building ongoing relationships with customers; and their passion for what they do they creates a less stressful, more personally rewarding shopping experience.
