Okay kids. Big day today. It’s thelast day to order with FREE Super Saver Shipping at Amazon for Christmas delivery. Not only that, but my goodness, Amazon is pulling out all the stops with toy pricing today. Usually finding a bargain for me is like walking through a pumpkin patch- you trudge through a lot of mud, but in the end, come up with one or two perfectly-shaped deals. Er, pumpkins. Today? Running through an apple orchard with trees literally throwing fruit at me. If you’re tuckered out of toy shopping, you might want to consider donating one of your favorite deals to one of our (or your!) favorite charities (all of whom make donating toys online super easy,) or planning ahead for next year’s birthday parties- a lot of these prices won’t be this low again for quite a while. So let’s get to it!
First up is the Alex Toys My Busy Town Activity Center, on the right. It feels like every pediatrician has something like this in their office. And surely if it can calm a screaming toddler at a doctor’s office, it’s probably a pretty entertaining toy. Listed for $110, this is one of our best bargains today- just $32 with free shipping, 71% off!
Fans of cars (and the Cars 2 movie in particular!) will love the 3 pages of deals on Cars 2 toys that Amazon has on sale today- most around 50% off! There’s so many good ones! We happen to have the Air Hogs R/C Raoul Caroule (on the left) and it’s definitely one of the most-loved toys in our house- and not just because PapaBargain plays with it too! I think it’s particularly well-made, and I’m a big stickler on quality (as we all know by now.) Originally $25, it’s on sale for a spectacular $10- 60% off!
These Learning Resources Hide N’ Peek Chocolates have been in my Amazon cart for months, and today they finally dropped down in price- to a whopping 64% off! Originally $17, they’re now just $6! With matching, sorting, and memory activities, these would even make a cute Valentine’s gift for a special little toddler!
TotBargainer Ashley was awesome enough to share a deal with us on the eco-friendly Green Toys she found on sale at Amazon as well. I love this Fire Truck so much! Originally $28, he’s on sale for a cool $17, 39% off! The very popular Dump Truck is marked down to $15, 46% off the original $28, and there’s a cool race car marked down to just $6 from an original $11- although I’m not quite sure what color you get! Did you know that these are all made of recycled milk jugs? Amazing!
Oh wait, one more!!! MyHabit (Amazon’s daily deal site) has Aden + Anais blankets again! For the lowest price I’ve ever seen these- because they are never on sale! Scoop ‘em up now!
And congratulations again to the winner of our $25 Amazon gift card, Kim R.! Remember that we’ll still be giving away a $50 gift card to one lucky deal hunter who shares a bargain with us this month! Happy Monday, friends!
UPDATE! I know that some of these prices have gone up since we posted them this morning, so here’s a few more fresh-out-of-the-oven deals to keep you going all the way through Amazon’s midnight deadline! Be sure to also check out our newly-released Tot Ten Stocking Stuffers list while you’re here!
Very similar to the dolly on our Tot Ten Stocking Stuffers list, this Kids Preferred Baby Kira doll (on the left) is a solid 62% off her original $13, just $5!
The Learning Resources Primary Bucket balance (on the right!) I’ve had in my cart forever is finally on sale- and for a very healthy 60% off the original $19, just $8!
The super adorable Little Tikes 3-in-1 Trike in Purple just dropped in price to $80 from an original $100- although I see it on Babies R Us’s website for $130!
Today is also “free shipping day” for a large group of online retailers- but many of them still have minimum order amounts to meet to qualify for the discount. You can browse all 2,500 stores here (!), but I think some of the best for kids bargains are The Children’s Place (free shipping on any order + 25% off with coupon code N7F2011,) Pottery Barn Kids (free shipping on any order excluding furniture,) Oriental Trading (free shipping on any order,) The Disney Store (free shipping on any order with code FREESHIP), and Gymboree (free shipping on any order). Good luck out there today!
Remember- Just 2 more days to enter to win a $25 Amazon Gift Card!
We shared this bargain yesterday on our Facebook page, but it’s still going strong, so I’ll share it again! I feel like I’ve seen a lot of advertising with this little speedway in it, and every time I do, I wish it had been around for BabyBargain when he was younger- he would have loved it! A big thanks to TotBargainer Melissa for keeping a keen eye on this Fisher-Price Lil’ Zoomers Speedway for her tot- she found it for the lowest price it’s ever been on Amazon- $20, 43% off it’s original $35! I don’t think this price will last long!
We’ve also found great deals on a very highly-reviewed Rolling Shape Sorter for 50% off it’s original price- just $12! For the vehicle-loving tots, a My First RC School Bus- also for 50% off, and also just $12! And a Chuggington Interactive Railway (I love Chuggington!) for 66% off it’s original $25, just $8! (No reviews on this one, but others like it seem to be well-liked!)
If your toy coffers are getting full, remember it’s really easy to donate new toys online to any of these charities- I’m sure they would love that you got such a great bargain on them!
Just 4 more days to enter to win a $25 Amazon gift card! Stay tuned for a diaper deal roundup tomorrow!
I’m a big fan of the PBS show “Dinosaur Train,” and I’ll be darned if that theme song isn’t stuck in my head every other day. Sooo catchy. So I was excited to see this cute little pack of Dinosaur Train figures on sale at Amazon- for 73% off their list price! Originally $20, this pack of 10 dinosaurs and a carrying case backpack are on sale for just $5! Sounds like a good stocking stuffer to me!
While you’re there, TotBargainer Josie found the great Alex Toys Parking Garage we featured last week on sale for even LESS now- $40, 56% off it’s original $90! Thanks, Josie!
We’ve also found another VTech camera deal (no tiara this time!) on the Lightning McQueen Digital Camera- originally $60 and on sale for $20- 67% off! Fans of Cars might also want to check out the Shake N’ Go Professor Z for 71% off it’s list price of $17, just $5! He’s a cutie even if he is an evil villain.
Two weeks ’till Christmas- let’s do this! If you haven’t noticed already, we’re giving away a $25 Amazon gift card just for fun, and it’s super quick and easy to enter! We’ll even get it to the winner with time to use it before Christmas. Enter now!
Here’s the lowdown on the best toy deals I could find this morning. On the right is the VTech Disney Princess Digital Camera. It doesn’t have any Amazon reviews, so I’m a little hesitant to post it, but I like VTech and I’m a sucker for tiaras. And it’s at it’s lowest price ever at Amazon, $30- 50% off it’s original $60!
For the babies, we’ve got the classic Playskool Lullaby Gloworm for 52% off the original $13, just $6 at Amazon! And two other great Playskool toys for toddlers- the Weebles Home Playset for 54% off the original $35, just $16 (great reviews!) and the Playskool Poppin’ Park Pound-and-Pop Carnival (say that five times fast!) for 61% off the original $23, just $9!
In the non-toy category, Buy Buy Baby has an awesome deal on Medela nursing bras. Originally around $30-$40, a few different styles are on sale for just $10! There’s a $5.99 shipping charge (or free store pick-up), but that’s still a pretty good price! And The Children’s Place has added more styles to their holiday clothes clearance, still with an additional 25% off coupon code (H7F2011) and a free shipping on any order coupon code (J7F2011)!
And every Christmas there seems to be a deal on a KitchenAid mixer, and after 9 years, mine is still churning out some pretty tasty cookies. It also makes it easy for the kids to help! Amazon has the Professional 600 Series 6-quart mixer on sale today in silver and cinnamon for a very low $280, 44% off it’s $500 list price. Mamas have Christmas lists too, right?
Winter is a great time to focus some indoor-activity attention on honing fine motor skills and making creative projects together. These Step 2 easels are classics- and always seem to go on sale this time of year! The Flip and Doodle Easel Desk w/ Stool (on the right) is on sale at Amazon for the lowest price I’ve seen- $48 with free shipping, 47% off the original $90! It’s a desk that flips up to an easel- I love a good double-duty toy!
The Step 2 Easel for 2 is also on sale- the pink version for a very low $33- 53% off the original $70! The lowest price I’ve EVER seen on this easel was $25, and that was 18 months ago- so this is an excellent bargain! We have the red version (priced a little higher right now at $43,) and it’s very popular in our house. And it’s a nice way to get a little free art. UPDATE: Looks like the pink version is now sold out from Amazon, I’ll keep an eye on it!
And, hey, we’re going to do a giveaway! Just a little way to give back and help spread some holiday cheer. In one week, we’ll give away a $25 Amazon gift card to one lucky reader! Just follow the Rafflecopter instructions below for a bunch of ways to enter- easy peasy! GOOD LUCK, everyone!! (PS- If you’re reading this from our email alert, come over to the blog to be able to see the widget!)
I’ve had my eye on this VTech walker for a while now, because it just looks so… happy. Doesn’t it? So colorful and friendly. It gets awesome reviews at Amazon, too, and it just happens to be on sale for the lowest price I’ve ever seen- $22, 42% off it’s original $38! It’d be a great first birthday gift!
Speaking of VTech, the Pink Tote & Go Laptop is 50% off at Amazon- $15- complete with it’s own tiny “social network”…of virtual pets. Cute!
And Chugginton fans will definitely want to check out the Interactive Railway All Around Chugginton set on sale at Amazon for $50 (29% off) -that’s $10 less than Target and $30 less than Toys R Us!
I think today’s going to be another big day for online sales. Stay tuned!
PS- Our friends at Red Tricycle are holding a giveaway with a bunch of good stuff- two luxury strollers and $500 gift cards! It’s a very easy entry- tell ‘em TotBargains sent you!
UPDATE! Zulily has a Phil & Ted’s Dash Buggy Single Bundle (includes a Cocoon and storm cover) for $320- that’s 52% off the original $665! (not a Zulily member? click here. already a Zulily member? click here!)
And if you’ve never heard of ShopRunner, it’s pretty cool- they’re a third party that offers unlimited free 2-day shipping at select online stores- Toys R Us, Drugstore.com, FAO Schwarz, and a bunch of others- usually for $79 a year, but today they’re offering it for free if you “like” them on Facebook! Note: The small form you’ll fill out to activate the membership
asks for payment info, you DON’T need to complete that section for the activation to go through! (I got one the last time they offered this special- I like it! It’s easy to use, and I hate paying for shipping!)
UPDATE! The orange version of the VTech Tote & Go Laptop is now just $13 at Amazon (55% off!) and a very cute LeapFrog Octopus (sort of like a shell game,) is on sale for $15 from an original $30- half off!
Holy smokes! Thanks to TotBargainers Julie and Katie for sharing one of the best Melissa & Doug deals of the year! If you’ve been waiting out a sale on any of their most popular toys, Amazon has 20 of the best on sale for 50% off! Amazon usually does their most aggressive Melissa & Doug pricing right before Christmas, so I’m pretty confident this is the best deal we’ll see on these before then- and probably the lowest we’ll see from Amazon for the next year- so stock up now for next year’s birthday parties! I love all of these, but I think my favorite is the Jumbo Knob Wooden Farm Puzzle- it’s one of our Tot Ten First Birthday Gifts, and I’m a sucker for those giant knobs- perfect for tiny hands! It’s on sale for an amazing $10!
And the only thing better than stackable coupon codes is ONE coupon code that does double duty. In today’s case, it’s one of the best Children’s Place coupon codes I’ve seen- 25% off and free shipping on any order! With no minimum purchase required to use it, that makes something like this pretty-as-a-princess tutu just $5 shipped! That’s amazing! All of their holiday clothing is already marked down as well, so there’s plenty of bargains to be had. Just use code H7F2011 at checkout!
We’ve got lots more deals to come today! Join us on Facebook for updates when new deals are posted!
UPDATE! TotBargainer Jen found one of my very favorite toys on sale at Amazon for 32% off, the lowest we’ve seen in a while! It’s the Leapfrog Fridge Phonics, on sale for $15! TotBargainer Cristina found a great price on Diaper Genie II refills at Amazon, about 40% off a pack of 3, just $14 with subscribe & save! And we found the smaller versions of the Melissa & Doug knobby puzzles on sale at Kohls.com for $7 shipped when you use coupon code SECRETSANTA for 20% off your order, and XMASFREE for free shipping! Thanks, ladies!
ANOTHER UPDATE! Bug lovers! This totally creeps me out, but I think there’s some adventurers out there that might like it. The “Creature Peeper” (on the right!) is on sale at Amazon for 62% off the original $10, just $3.79! There’s also an awesome inflatable solar system (it’s as cool-looking as it sounds!) for 70% off, just $15! And a Disney Princess Ultimate Fairytale Play Kitchen for a whopping 43% off, $85 with free shipping! And a Playskool Ball Popper for 48% off, just $12! Sheesh, big day for sales!
