Personalized recommendations are suggestions for toys, games, books and gear that we think you and the kids in your life will love!

It also allows us to send you Perks updates via text message, with your consent.

What if I don’t have a mobile phone number? Can I give you my home phone?

Yes, you may provide a home phone number, however you may not be eligible to receive text messages, even if you opt-in to receive them.

Is your online product selection the same as in stores?

Both product selection and inventory can vary in store and online, as well as between stores.

Can I check online to determine if a certain product is available at my local store?

Yes: you can see the inventory status at your preferred store on each product page. You can also click the Check stores link on any product page and use the drop-down menu to search other stores by address, city or postal code.

What do your various inventory statuses mean?

Our inventory messages are as follows:

• In stock online: this product is available for order online
• In stock at [Store Name]: the selected store has sufficient inventory of this product
• Out of stock online: this product is currently unavailable for order online but may be available in stores
• Out of stock at [Store Name]: this product is currently not available at the specified store but may be available online
• Limited quantities at [Store Name]: the selected store has a small inventory of this product
• Pre-order online: this product can be ordered online and will be shipped after its release date
• Online exclusive: product is available online only—not in Mastermind Toys stores
• In-store exclusive: this product is available for purchase in stores only—not online
• Coming soon online: this product will be available for purchase online at a future date
• Coming soon to [Store Name]: this product will be available at the specified store at a future date
• A super-hot item! Check your local store: Call or visit your local store about this in-demand product

Why do you place purchase limits on some products?

At Mastermind Toys, we believe in fun and fairness.  We therefore reserve the right to:

• prohibit purchase to resellers
• limit quantities on scarce, limited edition or hard-to-find product

Are your online and in-store prices the same?

Generally, prices are the same unless we are running a special online or in-store promotion.

Are your online and in-store promotions the same?

Yes, in most cases. We do occasionally run special online or in-store promotions. Stay in the loop on all our promotions, contests and special events by signing up for our email updates.

Do you match competitors’ prices?

No. We believe that our knowledgeable, helpful service and complimentary in-store gift-wrapping provide more value to our customers than small price reductions.

Can I choose the colour or style of online items available in “assorted” colours or styles?

No. Such items ship in randomly selected colours and styles according to availability.

How do I reserve items online to collect in-store?

On the product page, hit the “Reserve in-store” button to add it to your cart. Repeat with any other items you want to include in your order.

Go to your Cart in the upper right-hand corner and then hit the “Reserve in-store” option. Select the store where you would like to pick up your order.

Log in to your account; or check out as a guest using only your name, email address and phone number.

Finally, review your order and hit “Reserve in-store” to complete check-out.

If you place your order during your selected store’s hours of operation, we’ll send you a “Reserve online” confirmation email within 60 minutes. If you place your order outside of store hours, we’ll send the email within 60 minutes of your selected store’s opening the next day. Once you have that email in hand – whether on your device or printed out – you can head for your selected store to pick up your order.    

Can I reserve anything I see online?

This service applies only to items available in stores – online exclusives and select products are not eligible, and styles may vary in-store. Look for the “Reserve in-store” button on the product page. If it’s bright blue, you’re good to go: hit it to reserve that item. If it’s grey, then that item is ineligible for this service.

How many items can I reserve at one time?

There is no limit to the number of items you can reserve in a single order. Please note that we do occasionally limit customers to a certain number of some popular or limited-edition products. These exceptions will be noted on the product page.

Do I have to create an account to use this service?

No: you can check out as a guest using only your name, email address and phone number.

How long will my items be reserved?

Your selected store will hold available items for same-day pickup. After that time, staff will return the items to store stock. Please check your local store hours here before ordering.

How will I know when my order is ready for pick-up?

We’ll send you a “Reserve online” confirmation email within 60 minutes during store hours, or within 60 minutes of store opening if you place your order after hours. Simply bring a copy of that email – either on your device or printed out – with you to your selected store to collect your items.

How do I pick up my order?

Please tell our store associate at the store entrance that you are picking up a Click & Collect order and show them your “Reserve online” confirmation email: either on your device or printed out.

When will I be charged for my order?

You pay when you pick up your items in-store at the cash.

What price will I pay for my items? What if a price changes?

You’ll pay the lowest in-store price for each of your items. If a price increases, you’ll pay the original price as shown on your “Reserve online” confirmation email within 24 hours. If a price decreases, you’ll pay that lower price. Note that online prices may vary and online promotional codes and sales will not apply.

How do I change or cancel my reservation?

Once you’ve placed your order, you cannot make any changes or additions. Once you receive your “Reserve online” confirmation email, the items you’ve reserved will be held for same-day pickup at your selected store. As a courtesy, if you wish to cancel the reservation, please call your selected store – they will return your items to store stock.

Can I have my items gift-wrapped?

Of course: when you pick up your order in-store, we’d be delighted to wrap them at no charge.

Why does my ”Reserve online” confirmation email show that an item is unavailable for pick-up?

Occasionally, although an item may show online as available, it may have sold out at your selected store by the time staff received the order and looked for the item requested.

I’m trying to reserve an item online, but the system won’t let me: why not?

Some items are available online only and cannot be picked up in our stores. Other items are not yet available or are considered hot commodities that we cannot guarantee stock for in stores. Only items eligible for this service will have the “Reserve in-store” button active – that is, bright blue– on the product page. Ineligible items will show the “Reserve in-store” button as grey and inactive.
