Attention, recession weary shoppers! You can save money buying toys this holiday season. With a little effort and some planning, you can buy great toys and save some money doing it. Start shopping early this year. With this recession, less inventory will be stocking the shelves during the holiday season.
How to figure out what the hot toys for 2009 will be. Mark October 28th on your calender. Its the day that Toy Retailers Association will announce the Hot List of "It" toys for the upcoming holiday season. Return to this entry on 10/28, select "Toy Retailers Association" and you'll get redirected to the list!
A Few Thoughts on Where to Shop...
Toys R Us. While the rest of the country celebrates Christopher Columbus, you'll find me at Toys R Us annual toy sale where Buy One Get One Free Hasbro Games is happening.
Michaels. Almost every week, Michael's Craft Store offers a 40-50% off one item at the retail price. Great selection of arts and crafts, puzzles, and model toys. And at this price, why not pick up something you can donate to your local Toys for Tots campaign.
Wal-Mart. Wal-mart will be offering more than 100 toys for $10 each during the holiday season. Additionally, Wal-mart will match any local competitor's advertised price on the same toy product if it falls below $10.
Borders and/or Barnes and Noble. Good selection of speciality toys and games which can often be bought at 20% - 30% discount when you use a coupon. Just google "Borders" or "Barnes and Nobles" and "coupon" to find the latest promotion.
