Ugh...back again, with more crap that drives me nuts when typed by grown-ups...
They're = another contraction (just like you're = you are), short for "they are".  Unless you can replace it in the sentence with "they are", DON'T USE IT!
There = a place.  That's it.  If you're not describing a place, DON'T USE IT!
Their = a possessive pronoun.  Unless what comes after it is something that belongs to something/someone, DON'T USE IT!
Ugh.  These are not hard, people, none of them are advanced or complex thoughts to process.  If you finished middle school with a passing grade in English, we should not be needing to have this conversation.  Figure it out, or put away the keyboard.  Seriously.  Seriously seriously.

I feel your pain my friend. How about "seen"?
"I seen these shoes at the store"
No. No you didn't. You *saw* those shoes at the store and you are going to see my shoes coming at your head. Death. Now.
