Yesterday, both DD (4.5) and DS1(3) wanted to read Tag books during naptime - in different rooms, with one reader. I decided it was time to get him a Tag.

Clicked on the email from Leapfrog, looked at slickdeals, then ordered:
TS3 Tag Reader $23.99
Little Engine That Could Tag book $7.99
Explorer Action pack (console, football game, case) $87.99
- all using the 20% off email.
____
then they applied $10 off 75 purchase
ANOTHER $10 off 50 purchase
free shipping over 50, plus the 3% from ebates.
Yes, a GREAT deal of stuff (that we would be buying eventually) for $107 shipped, but STILL...I did not need to do that! argh.

I hear you. DS2 wanted a the Folkmanis T-rex puppet for Christmas from Santa. 40% off Border Q. Ok... Then I found a steal at a consignment sale for a doorway puppet theater- $10. But it needs a rod- so a little more $. And then I'm thinking... You really need puppetS for a puppet theater- so MORE $$....
I did the same with the Tag deals- Target BOGO -Q = Free books, but then I need the reader, and the maps... Not so free anymore. LOL!
