SCORE!

Ok, I feel like I am the awesomest Christmas shopper/Mom in the world today after my fabulous find - so I have to share. :) But I do have to tell you about all my other deals too!

#1 find - A few weeks ago Toys R Us had a buy 2 get one free Barbie sale. I stocked up on the 3 Musketeer Barbies and got 3 of them for approx. $45 (including tax)... Not too bad ... THEN a couple of weeks later I noticed they were giving a $15 gift card for spending $40 on Barbies with the "pink tag" which mine had. SO, I took my Barbies back and she let me "return" and then re-buy them and I got the $15 back!!! - Which leads us to our next find.

#2 find - Leapster 2 games. There were a few select games on sale at Target and one of them happened to be the one Gabe asked for so I went on over. (Keep in mind these games usually range between $19.99 (for older games) and $25.99 (for new releases). So, I found the Star Wars one on sale for $15 (which was a new release!) and a Dinosaur one on sale for $19.99, so pretty good. THEN, I scored two $4 off coupons found on Hip2Sav and tada! TWO leapster games for only $27!!!

#3 find - This one is the coolest in my opinion. (my find of the day) Out of the blue my son Tyler has become enthralled with Buzz Lightyear. We were at Toys R Us and he found THE Buzz that he wants - comes with the box that looks just like the one from the original movie - talks, moves, lights up, the works. He is regularly $50! OUCH. SOOOO, I worked my magic today! I went into Toys R Us and I got THE Buzz Lightyear, which is on sale for $40, THEN I used my $15 card (from the Barbie deal) and it was only $25 - which doesn't hurt nearly as much. AND I scored a free backpack which they are giving away for any Toy Story purchase of $30 or more. :) I feel so cool!

#4 find - Snow White on DVD for $10! (For family gifts) *thanks to Hip2Sav again*


#5 find - This one isn't THE coolest, but I got 2 Hungry Hippos travel games for $.99 each! Good gift, OR good use for our DisneyLand trip coming up in February! (regular $4.99 had 2 $4.00 off coupons)


#6 find - TinkerBell on Blueray for Haleigh for Christmas $11.99! (plus taxes)


I am feeling good! Tyler only needs one more gift and he is set. Gabe needs a couple more, but the things he is getting aren't expensive. Haleigh won't care once she gets her Barbies and Max is going to be the hardest because I have NO ideas what to get him - and again he doesn't care! Ahh, I can do this holiday shopping thing. Just get all the deals you can in October/November and then you have ALL December to focus on what the holidays are all about!!! That is my kind of holiday. Oh and if you happen to be a recipient of these happy deals this holiday, please don't think me cheap! (LOL) Happy deal hunting!
