This week at Toys R Us, most Crayola products are Buy 1 Get 2 Free. Usually I have found that Toys R Us raises the prices when they run these offers, so sometimes it is a good deal and sometimes not so good. They do not have any prices listed in the ad so you have to go have a look for yourself to see.
One thing to mention, is that Target has in their weekly ad Crayola markers and colored pencils for $.99. You can try price matching these at Toys R Us. So, you would pay $.99 and get 2 free making each pack only $.33.
I think it might be a stretch to get the price match but is worth a shot if you need these items. Toys R Us has started a price matching program so they may or may not allow this.
Even without the price match, the sale at Target is a good one. Crayola items make good gifts or you could put together a travel set for the kids on car trips. Usually $.99 is a pretty good buy price for markers and colored crayons from Crayola.

I tried the price matching at my local Toys R Us today and it did not work. They said they only price match on baby items.
Elise,
I don’t see anything about baby items in the price match policy. I thought it might be a stretch- they should match the .99 price for certain but the free items I thought would be a stretch.
i did the price match sorta they said its only on baby items but the manager came out and said he would price match but not do there sale and another stores, so they compromised
