Toy Bargains, Stroller Bargains, Diaper Bargains!

BabyBargain was falling all over my computer trying to get a better look at this cute toy! He went through a very pronounced “parking garage” phase, followed by a “car wash” phase, both of which I thought we’d made it through unscathed (financially, that is!) But I do particularly like this one, because it’s not so easy to find wooden car playsets. And it’s a great deal, of course! The Alex Toys Wood Parking Garage retails for $90, but is on sale at Amazon for $50 with free shipping- 44% off! While you’re there, check out this cool 24-piece puzzleball (I’ve always wondered if these could work!) for 60% off, and a really awesome-looking Learning Resources Gears set (for the budding engineers out there!) for 39% off!

And thanks to TotBargainer Sara for sharing two great deals at Zulily today- the dreamy Valco Baby Raven Quad stroller for 46% off, and a bunch of Fuzzibunz cloth diapers for 37% off!

Dancing, Denim, & Drama

Sounds like your average Friday night, eh? Maybe closer than you’d think! Today we’ve got a great deal on one of the newest additions to the Just Dance family of video games- Just Dance Kids 2. The regular ol’ Just Dance games have been a staple of my post-pregnancy workouts, and now BabyBargain has taken an interest in becoming my own personal trainer- “i think you can do one more dance, mama!” We might just be dancing together now, because this popular game is at the lowest price I’ve seen it- just $20 for the Wii and XBox360 editions, 33% off the original $30!

For quiet nights at home (or as one Amazon reviewer suggested, while waiting in a restaurant,) try Rory’s Story Cubes. It’s a set of 9 dice with different pictures on each face, and you use the pictures you’ve rolled to come up with a story. Amazing reviews on this one, and even thought the suggested age is 8+, I’m pretty sure my 4 year old could come up with a more imaginative story than I could. Originally $10, it’s on sale at Amazon for just $6.86!

One more- use coupon code DENIMABC for $20 off any $100 denim purchase at Amazon (sold by Amazon). That includes kids & adult sizes, and sale prices, so there’s some excellent opportunities to stack discounts! Find all the details here!

UPDATE: Here’s some more! A Ravensburger 35 piece airport puzzle for 50% off, just $5, and a Ravensburger 60 piece ballerina puzzle for 40% off, just $6- both at Amazon, and the Fisher-Price Sit-to-Stand Giraffe (on the left) on sale at Meijer.com for just $13, 65% off the original $40!

BOB, Bunnies, and Baby Toys on Sale!

There’s just deals all over the place! I wish finding bargains was always this easy! First up today is a SUPER deal on some of my favorite baby toys. The Lamaze brand makes all the cute “Take Along Toys” we occasionally find deals on- like Princess Sophie, Lulu in a Tutu, and Rusty the Robot- but now, not only are most of these on sale at Amazon (some almost 50% off!), but if you add $30 worth of this group of Lamaze toys to your cart, $5 will be automatically deducted at checkout! That is a fantastic deal, especially considering something like the very popular Lamaze Octotunes that retails for $33 and is on sale for $22 already! While you’re there, check out some of these other stellar deals:

The BOB Revolution CE Single Stroller is on sale for 23% off, $360 and ships free at Amazon! There’s a big group of other BOB strollers on sale for 15% off as well!

Five different wooden KidKraft play kitchens are on sale for up to 37% off!

Two colors of the highly-reviewed Skip Hop Studio diaper bag are on sale for 29% off (that TotBargainer Pratima!)

And the very sweet Gund My First Bunny in blue is on sale for 40% off, just $7!

A little bit of everything!

There’s just a lot of great prices right now on a bunch of different things, so I’m just going to do a big ol’ list of some of the
deals I’ve found today. Feel free to leave a comment if you’ve got something to add, and check back to see if we add more! And don’t forget to enter our $140 GeoTrax Christmas Train Giveaway- just two more days!!

Amazon has a cute Infantino Travel Gym in Merry Monkey for $18, 40% off the original $30- this would make a great donation, too!

Kohl’s has two Little People Take-Along sets on sale for $19, 43% off the original $33, and a today-only coupon code to take another 15% off: GOBBLE15. The Take Along Zoo and Take Along Santa’s Workshop come down to just $16!

Amazon has the Princess Sophie Lamaze Take Along Toy on sale for the lowest price I’ve seen- $9.57, 44% off the original $17!

Kohl’s has a Dora Holiday Sparkle Doll on sale for $24, 40% off the original $40, and you can also use coupon code GOBBLE15 for an additional 15% off!

And, Amazon has 100 Christmas albums on sale for $5 each- including some of my favorites, like Mannheim Steamroller, James Taylor & the Muppets!

Any type of holiday where food and shopping play key roles is pretty tops on my list. I spent some time yesterday making a game plan for Black Friday and checking prices online- one of the things I really was looking to score a deal on was an inexpensive HD camcorder, and three different stores were advertising this one for $129 as a GREAT deal, which it is, but that’s how much it is at Amazon right now. Sooo…I think I’m still going out tomorrow morning because it’s kind of fun, but I’m really not sure what I’ll end up buying. How about you guys? Any great bargains you’re going after tomorrow?

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, friends!

Aden & Anais Set & Leapfrog Deals!

I know we’ve got some huge Aden & Anais fans out there! If you’re not familiar, they make a mean swaddling blanket- some of the most popular and the least likely to ever be on sale. But today we’ve found a fantastic deal, and it happens to be over at Amazon’s new-ish flash sale site, My Habit. It’s a 4 pack of Aden + Anais swaddle blankets plus a swaddling book for $25 with free shipping! That’s 45% off the original $45! There’s single blankets available as well at a discount. This would make a fantastic baby shower gift!

We’ve also found a deal on a cute FurReal friends baby elephant for 64% off at Amazon, and LeapFrog’s adorable My Pal Violet and My Pal Scout at Kmart, both part of our Tot Ten First Birthday Gifts list- they’re both just $15, the lowest price I’ve seen!

Step 2 Picnic Play Table

A big thanks to TotBargainer Ashley for scouting out today’s bargain! It looks like a regular ol’ picnic table, right? But when you pop the green top off, it turns into a sand and water table! I love double-duty toys! The Step2 Naturally Playful Picnic Play Table is on sale at Amazon for even less than Step 2′s own online store- originally $100, it’s on sale for $62 and ships free- 38% off!

And another big thanks to TotBargainer Jen for finding a deal on the adorable Nickelodeon Fit Wii game.  In this game, kids can jump rope with the Backyardigans, river raft with Diego, pogo with Dora, and try out many more interactive activities. My kiddos already follow every move Dora makes, so this should be a real smooth transition! Originally $40, it’s on sale at Amazon for $20- 50% off!

I’m sure we’ll find some more deals today. Stay tuned! Oh, and there’s just 9 more days to enter to win our GeoTrax Christmas Train giveaway- can you believe Thanksgiving is so soon?? Be sure to get your entries in now!

PS- I was right, here’s another great deal! I’ve had these awesome Annabel Karmel Fill and Freeze Puree Pops in  my Amazon cart for months and today they dropped to 41% off!

Mozart Magic Cube, Crayola & more deals!

Wow, you guys really “liked” the Melissa & Doug deal we found yesterday! Thanks for all the feedback, we’ll keep ‘em coming! Today, I’ve got a great bargain on the super-popular, highly-reviewed Munchkin Mozart Magic Cube. It’s always on Amazon’s bestseller list and one of our Tot Ten First Birthday Gifts. It’s hardly ever on sale, but today it is at Amazon for the LOWEST price I’ve ever seen…40% off it’s original $25, just $15! I couldn’t put this toy down the last time I happened across it at a store. I’m kind of a music buff anyway, but PapaBargain literally had to drag me away from it. Maybe I’ll put it on my Christmas list this year?

There’s also some cool Crayola sets on sale for 50% today, also at Amazon, including a crayon maker, which will always remind me of the Mr. Rogers Neighborhood show where they visit a crayon factory. Ahh, memories!

Zulily also has some super deals today on JuJuBe diaper bags (some 50% off!), the popular Doodlebugz crayon aprons (40% off), Kettler trikes and bikes (40% off)!

Melissa & Doug Toy Sale

Just plenty more amazing toy deals today. I was just telling someone yesterday- if you’re waiting for a deal on Black Friday, you’re waiting too long. The deals are here now! And there’s no crowds, no 4am wakeups, and no long lines. Take this super-popular and highly reviewed Melissa & Doug cutting food box. It retails for about $22. But it’s on sale at Bloomingdales.com for $8.80 (!) AND you can use coupon code FANDF for another 20% off, and code FREESHIP11 for free shipping- making it just $7 shipped! That’s by far the lowest price I’ve ever seen on this great toy. Those codes also make the Melissa & Doug Band in a Box just $5, or the Melissa & Doug Pizza Party just $6. Are you kidding me?? Amazing deals! These would also make fantastic donations to your favorite children’s charity- if you need a suggestion, we’ve got a few that make donating really easy on our charities page!

And thank you to TotBargainer Tiffany for finding the KidKraft Vintage kitchen we found a deal on a few days ago (and went back up in price quickly!) on sale at Target.com! It’s back down there to $99 with free shipping!
