You totally meant to save on iTunes gift cards
You’re not “finishing your shopping at the last minute,” you’re “being a savvy and patient shopper.” See? It’s all in how you look at it.
Right now Best Buy is offering $50 iTunes gift cards for just $40, with guaranteed in-time-for-Christmas delivery. Nice.
Choose from the snowflake card, dancing guy card, or… uh… I don’t know what this is… a bow made of earbuds card.
You save $10, and no one ever has to know when you bought it or how much you paid. It’ll be our little secret.
Giddyup, cowpokes
Need a last-minute rocking horse? Who doesn’t? (Ha!) All of these are Prime eligible and can still be there in time for Christmas:
Melissa and Doug Plush Rocking Horse for $40 (60% off)
Radio Flyer Soft Rock and Bounce Pony with Sound for $69 (51% off)
Fisher-Price Rock, Roll ‘n Ride Trike for $25 (55% off) (Okay, technically this is not a horse. But this is a great price on something that can be used as a rocker and later converted to a trike!)
There’s just something about a rocking horse. Too bad they don’t make them in grown-up sizes; can you think of anything that makes an adult as happy as one of these does a kid? Me neither.
Sunday on my laptop with Amazon
I keep waiting for Amazon to run out of deals. It has to happen eventually, right? But not today, apparently. It’s gotten to where I’m not sure if I’m even happy about all of these markdowns, anymore. I mean, I am. But the madness needs to end, soon. Really.
In the meantime….
The Gold Box/Deal of the Day in Clothing today is 75% off select outerwear for the whole family. Just throwing that out there.
I remain a slave to the Holiday Lightning Deals; while it’s true that you have to be critical of the deals (several items are marked up and then the “special price” is about a buck lower than normal), sprinkled throughout have been some really awesome savings. Yesterday they had a discount on iPod Nanos that was positively Black Friday-esque, and I can’t stop checking for new deals.
Some recent toy markdowns, largely for boys:
Iron Man New Repulsor Power Iron Man for $10 (52% off)
Ben 10 Legacy Omnitrix for $9.10 (74% off)
Star Wars Clone Wars Electronic Blaster Clone Trooper for $7.99 (68% off)
Star Wars Clone Wars Electronic Blaster Storm Trooper for $10.99 (52% off)
LEGO Star Wars Freeco Speeder for $14.99 (40% off)
Fisher Price Trio King’s Warship for $12.99 (57% off)
Fisher Price Trio King’s Gatehouse for $9.99 (60% off)
Fisher Price Trio Building Set for $9.99 (50% off)
Fisher Price Trio Zany Zoo for $9.99 (60% off)
Pretend and Play Workbelt Tool Set for $9.99 (73% off)
And now I’m going to stop looking. Hahahahaha! Just kidding!
Daily Deals compliments of Burt’s Bees
If you haven’t gotten all Burt’s Bee-d out from the recent grab bag deals, check out today’s Daily Deals at Target; there’s five different ways to save big on Burt’s Bees, and of course the shipping is free, too.
I don’t know that they’ll arrive in time to be stocking stuffers for this year, but you could always get started on next year….
Breakfast is on the way
Need a last-minute gift for someone, or, say, you’ve just canceled your Christmas trip because your entire family has the flu, and so you figure maybe you’ll send some food in your stead? (Not that that’s happened to anyone I know, recently. I… have something in my eye. Just a minute.)
Ahem.
Anyway: If you need a delicious breakfast gift for someone, look no further than Wolferman’s, purveyor of huge English muffins, scones, and other scrumptious gluten-laden things I cannot eat but I’m assured are really delicious. (This post is turning out to be in the key of Eeyore. I apologize.)
Order today or tomorrow and they’ll guarantee it there for Christmas, plus you can use coupon code FRSHP to ship your order for free. Search for the express breakfast gift basket for the best bang for your buck—it’s currently $19.95 (half off) and loaded with four pounds of goodies.
Every LEGO minifig ever—in a book!
I love this book, and this is the lowest price I’ve seen it at all year. Perfect rounding-out-the-pile Christmas gift, and also perfect to have in the gift closet for emergencies—I don’t know a LEGO fan who doesn’t love it.
It’s the Ultimate Sticker Collection: LEGO Minifigure book, and right now it’s down to just $7.49. It has—brace yourself—over 1,000 reusable stickers. Little kids will love sticking them everywhere; older ones will enjoy seeing all the different minifig possibilities.
It’s LEGOriffic, without any sharp edges to step on in the dark. Heh.
This isn’t a crock pot
So, um, I have a small crock pot problem. Namely, that I love them. I own three. I am constantly lusting after more. I am a crock pot addict! (Hey, don’t knock it; it makes entertaining really easy, from buffet parties to managing Thanksgiving dinner without needing to rotate different dishes through the oven.)
But, see, this Rival 17-quart roaster with bonus buffet insert that’s currently available at Meijer for $22 (54% off!) isn’t technically a crock pot, so I could totally buy that without being accused of overdoing the crock pot thing. Maybe.
Free shipping with coupon code NTLSHIP—on this, or anything else.
30% off LEGO Star Wars sets at Target
Yesterday’s posted deal on the LEGO Star Wars The Battle of Endor set sold out in a flash, but if you missed it, don’t be sad! Here are some other LEGO Star Wars sets currently available at Target for 30% off and free shipping:
Corporate Alliance Tank Droid for $17.49
Echo Base for $17.49 (also available from Amazon for the same price and free shipping—use to avoid tax, if you can)
Separatists Shuttle for $20.99
The Clone Wars Armored Assault Tank for $34.22
TIE Defender Set for $34.99
Anakin’s Y-Wing Starfighter for $41.29
Venator Republic Attack Cruiser for $89.99 (this one is only 25% off)
I look at these and all I see is LEGO all over the floor for me to step on. But funny, every boy my son’s age seems to have a very different reaction….
Amazon toy markdowns, random assortment edition
I’m starting to feel a little disorganized. Surely this is just me needing more coffee, and not me finally coming down with the flu that’s claimed the rest of my family, right? RIGHT?? Ahem.

I’m going to go drink some tea. And think a lot of not sick, not getting sick thoughts.
Amazon toy markdowns, dinosaur train edition
When my son was little, it was All Thomas, All The Time. And Thomas the Tank Engine is… fine, really. But know what’s way cooler? A train overrun by dinosaurs. (Two great tastes that taste great together!) Know what’s better than a train overrun by dinosaurs? A train overrun by dinosaurs on sale.
The main train itself is currently $10 (33% off). But add on to it for even less:
Collectible Tiny with Train Car for $4 (60% off)
Collectible Ned with Train Car for $4 (60% off)

Collectible Morris with Train Car for $5 (50% off)
Collectible Conductor with Train Car for $6 (40% off)
Collectible Tank with Train Car for $6 (40% off)
Sorry, Thomas. You’re still a very useful engine, and all, but this is just cool.
