Toy Sales and Deals Online

As a toy retailer, and an avid toy shopper for my 4 kids, I have found some tried and true websites for good deals on toys.

I would recommend getting on eToys mailing list because they do not generally post coupons online. They do send special offers in emails though!

www.etoys.com
This time of year, spring, is a great time for free shipping offers from eToys, and clearance items. They are gettign ready to restock for the next holiday season, and they have some great special. Always check their specials page.

Go through Upromise for an additional 3% savings into your Upromise account!

Walmart.com
Clearance toys and site to store option. Their toys are very reasonablly priced all year long. Their clearance prices are great. The new Site to Store feature gets the items shipped to your local store for free pick up.

Target.com
Use one fo my suggested coupon sites or just do a Google search above for "Target + Coupons". You will always find a good one for $5 off or 10% off.

Go through Upromise and receive an additional 4% savings into your Upromise account!

Amazon.com
Amazon marketplace has opened up a world of savings! All the sellers are trying to be the lowest price seller and usually that means you can get quality toys, like Melissa and Doug wooden toys, Guidecraft, and Kidkraft toys, and more at just a few dollars over wholesale. I used to sell many of these toys on Amazon, and could not compete with the low low price, and Amazon's cut of the deal. That is how I know the prices are low!



When you are looking for a toy on Amazon, always click on the "New and Used" list to see all available merchants.

For example, for the Melissa and Doug Wooden Birthday Party Cake, there are 76 items available from Amazon Marketplace sellers, and the price starts as low as $9.50!!! This usually retails for $19.95. There are 10 sellers selling it for around $13 dollars with FREE SHIPPING. That is a good deal.

Finally, if you like Disney Toys, you cannot beat DisneyShopping.com's Outlet

www.DisneyShopping.com

The only drawback to Disneyshopping is the constant emails from them. However, they always have excellent coupons, flat rate shipping for $5, etc. You can also receive 4% into your Upromise account, and special savings like 20% sitewide by using Upromise! The outlet prices on toys and costumes are excellent! Add the flate rate shipping, Upromise savings, and you are in business!

Happy Shopping!
