Over 150 Toys ‘R’ Us Stores Are About to Have Huge Going-Out-of-Business Sales. Here’s the Full List - TIME Business

Over 150 Toys ‘R’ Us Stores Are About to Have Huge Going-Out-of-Business Sales. Here’s the Full List Posted: 07 Feb 2018 06:13 AM PST Toys “R” Us will soon be hosting going-out-of-business sales at over 150 of its stores across the country. The chain’s CEO David Brandon announced on Tuesday that the toy retailer would be closing a number of its stores after filing for bankruptcy, planning to close a total of some 180 stores across the Toys “R” Us and “Babies “R” Us brands. The closures are slated to start in early February and last through mid-April. As the retailer prepares to shut down about a third of its current portfolio, it will be hosting sales at some 170 stores (some were removed from the original list). Though Toys “R” Us has not yet confirmed when the official date of the sales will be, they could start as early as Wednesday, according to USA Today, and are set to wrap up by April 15. The retailer will be working with two different groups of liquidation specialists for the sale, USA Today reports — including Gordon Brothers Retail Partners and Hilco Merchant Resources on the East Coast, and the Tiger Capital Group and Great American Group on the West Coast. The retailer had requested permission from the federal bankruptcy court in Richmond, Va., to close its stores, citing consumer preferences for online shopping and a “challenging commercial environment” as factors leading to the decision. Brandon, who mentioned the out-of-business-sales when announcing stores closures on Tuesday, promised customers “deep discounts and deals” as the company attempts to reorganize its structure amidst bankruptcy.

Ben & Jerry’s Just Dropped Its Own Version of Halo Top Posted: 07 Feb 2018 04:05 AM PST Last year, the diet-friendly ice cream Halo Top made headlines for surpassing freezer aisle classics to become the top-selling pint of ice cream in the country. Now, Ben & Jerry’s — known for its indulgent, chunk-filled creations — is firing back with a light ice cream of its own. The new line, called Moo-Phoria, is significantly lower in calories, fat and sugar than typical Ben & Jerry’s flavors; is made with organic milk and cream; and is free of sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners. The inaugural flavors include chocolate milk and cookies, peanut butter cookie dough and caramel cookie. True to Ben & Jerry’s form, the flavors are still packed with swirls and add-ins, so the calorie counts aren’t as crazy-low as some other light products on the market. The pints range from 560 to 640 calories in total, or 140 to 160 calories per half-cup serving. For context, a pint of the brand’s top-selling flavor, Half Baked, rings in at 1,080 calories, while Halo Top pints are between 240 and 360 calories in all. Moo-Phoria flavors also contain about a quarter of the fat found in traditional Ben & Jerry’s treats, and about half as much sugar. “Ben & Jerry’s tries to offer a little bit of something for everyone,” Dena Wimette, the company’s senior innovation manager, said in a statement. “We’re excited to have an incredible new option for our fans who say they can’t be trusted with a pint of Ben & Jerry’s in their freezers.” Despite their growing popularity, many nutrition experts have pushed back light ice creams, arguing that they send an unhealthy message that it’s harmless to eat an entire pint of dessert in one sitting. “No one should eat a whole point of ice cream,” New York City registered dietitian Keri Gans told TIME last summer. “We should be sitting down to the recommended serving, which is half a cup. If you want to double it, fine, but you shouldn’t sit down to a pint.” Moo-Phoria will be available in grocery stores across the country starting this week.
