I’m still on the lookout for the big Amazon toy price drops that should be starting any minute now. (Yes, in the meantime you can occupy yourself with the Holiday Lightning Deals, but it’s the frenetic price drops of just-before-Christmas that really make things fun.)
While we wait, here’s two deals for your Cars-loving kids:
The Cars 2 Action Agents Crabby Boat Vehicle Playset with 2 Character Cars set is just $7.99 right now (64% off), and it looks like a pretty sizable set.
Also, the LEGO Cars Big Bentley Bust Out set is just $35 (50% off), and this may be worth it even if you’re not a huge Cars fan, as the set is over 700 pieces.
Let’s hope this is just the start of sales to come….
Can you remind me of Amazon’s price adjustment policy? I was so excited to get that Lego kit in their Lightning deal last week for $45. $10 less now??
The official policy is that Amazon no longer does price adjustments. Occasionally you can sweet-talk one of their CSRs on the phone into doing it for you, but more often you just need to reorder/return if it’ll save you enough money. In the case of this set, considering shipping, I would say it’s probably not worth it, though.
I wrote a sappy sweet, please-help-me-save-$10-in-this-tight-budget-Christmas letter, acknowledged that I know their policy isn’t to do adjustments, and ended with a fluffy compliment about positive past customer service experiences. Lo and behold, I got a nice email back saying they’d refund it… this time. WOOHOO! I’ll stick with Amazon 🙂
Got the Cars playset and the price had dropped to $7.49.
