Welcome back to the fifth day of the Virtual Advent Tour.
Every year, in the first week after Thanksgiving, I head downtown to Macy’s to check out their holiday windows. Some years, they are amazing and other years, they’re … a little less wondrous.

This year falls into the latter category with an apparent tie-in with the Toys-R-Us brand. The toy store giant faded this millennium, ultimately declaring bankruptcy five years ago. However, Christmas is a time for miracles (and capitalism-driven nostalgia) because the brand now operates seasonally out of Macy’s toy sections.

So, if you were at one point or another a Toys-R-Us kid, get you to your local Macy’s for an Instagram opportunity with Geoffrey the Giraffe.
