It’s a sad day for millennials and toy collectors everywhere! Toys R Us closed their last stores in the US this week and now their beloved mascot Geoffrey Giraffe is unemployed.
A photo of Geoffrey in an empty store with his suitcase and vacation clothes is making it’s round on social media, and it’s probably the saddest thing you’ll see today.

The former magical store for kids is now a no mans land. Guess they children will be buying toys online from now on.
