Toys R Us and Maplins go into administration

Around 5,000 jobs are under threat now with these two big businesses going into administration.
I have shopped in both of these places in the past and got some good deals.
Maybe this has come because they were not able to adapts or whether the online stores are causing the bother.

Toys R Us should have adapted to the changing shopping habits.
In other words, do more on the internet.
They didn't so they sank!

Not sure about Maplins, but they would have suffered by online shopping too I reckon.

I loved going to Toys R Us, so sad how these things happen.
