People arent always or even usually rational. |

You're one of the exceptions, by the way. Your experience is not representative of the world. But yeah I'm gonna echo Ike here and say that none of the reasons you gave are reasons why a toy store is shutting down. Online shopping and stores like Target and Walmart put them out of business by carrying the same items with none of the hassle of going to a separate store. |

But the people anywhere from 30-54 years old around me do the stupidest stuff. |
