They filed for bankruptcy last year and was hoping that the holidays would help them bounce back. However, sales were lackluster.

Toys "R" Us has faced increasing competition from online retailers like Amazon.

The stores have been around since the 1940s and was once considered the store that just about every kid begged their parents to go to.
