i did time there as well and definitely the only benefit was getting first dibs. i wonder if their policies have changed regarding employee purchases.

I also worked there for about a month when I was on winter break from college one year. I just needed to work wherever I could find it to help pay for books, etc. when I went back to school. It was minimum wage and although I spent most of my days out on the floor stocking shelves and helping customers; I had a difficult time with co-workers. Nobody particularly mean but just didn't find anything in common with anyone. I also felt extremely bad that this was basically their occupation while I was just making some money for school. The managers were pretty nice to me though. I worked hard there and did whatever was asked without question. I wish I could have said that I had first dibs on toys which I'm sure I did but was so focused on saving for college, I didn't buy anything.

With me being totally unfamiliar with their policies in regards to employee purchases what were they like when you worked there? Just curious to know.
