I have a gift card with $130 on it. All from when DD was born. I dont frequent this store.

Whats worth buying at this store?

I want to get a kitchen, but I think their prices are inflated...

Diapers when on sale and w coupons (although you may be getting out of diapers?)
Car seat, especially with a 20% off coupon
Toys for holidays, birthdays, gifts, etc - I've gotten some good deals this Christmas season.
Clothes - their clothes go super cheap when they go on sale.
FYI- I find their online store to be a pain and shipping ridiculous and ship to store is a joke.

Another option is to 'sell' the GC at sites like cardpool.com or plasticjungle.com for cash or an Amazon.com GC. I am not sure how much you would get for the BRU GC, but of course, you would loose some money. However, you may find that the selection, prices and no tax at Amazon are worth that...

I'd do a carseat, stroller or other big ticket item- with a 20% off coupon.

If you check out the TRU Big toy book or the TRU website, maybe they have a coupon for a certain amt spend- like some off if you spend this amount... etc.

I only get stuff on sale there, but I get great deals when combining deal of the day with the weekly ad. Imaginext, Crayola, Little Tikes stuff have been my recent double discount faves.
