[TwinFoxes]

I'll kick it off. MC2 Circuit Board Room Light is $7.99, lowest price ever according to CCC. List price is $19.00. My niece loves MC2 stuff, so I'm getting this for DDs.

Everyone here is convinced it's 2017, at least when it comes to thread titles! It's really only 2016. :)

This Ty Beanie Boos medium size Pippie dog is $5.10. It's cheaper than the smaller regular size. It's an add-on item though.

Green Toys are the DOTD! We love this brand! Highly recommend their dishware: food safe, BPA free, dishwasher safe, and made in the USA! The watering can would be a good Easter gift for the spring! ;)

Amazon is OOS, but Target still has them and it's a slightly better deal if you have a Red Card with the 5% discount:

On the scale of deals, where does this fall? Obviously not as good a deal as the Wal-Mart BF deal, but still above average?

Yes!! This is a great deal on basic bricks!

Ha! I cut and pasted from the last one. I will change it. (I think a lot of us are eager to see 2016 in the rearview mirror. )

I love Green Toys. My almost 4 year old breaks everything and the school bus, dump truck and recycling truck still look new almost 3 years later. I ordered the pink dump truck for my niece (they have these at the Discovery Museum where we live and the girls fight over them in the rock pit)and the small construction set for Little Terror. I really wish the race cars would go on sale. He has 2 from the last 50% sale when the ferry was on sale and they get played with almost daily. So does the rocket ship but we somehow lost a door. Great, great toys. Thinking about ordering a few extra for the Toys for Tots drive at school.

The wowee build up mini robot looks pretty cool for $9, but no reviews. Anyone know anything about this?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FSTNW52/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

[Mikey0709]

We had the larger ($$$) wowee and it was pretty cool, but lost interest fast.

It seems amazon has 2 different mini-robots for $9 today....scroll down on the one you listed and there is 2nd you can add.

I'm in for one, hoping they'll fit in stocking. It looks like all they do is walk? One looks like it comes with a remote control.

We have both the bigger Wowee and MIP, so that's why I'm wondering exactly what this is. Just a little one that you can build, I guess. I think DS would play with it as an action figure since it is about the same size as a lot of his other figures.

We have Rush Hour Jr and all three of my kids have really liked it. I like that its single player, since I often have one kid who wants to play a game when their siblings don't. They are great logic games! These three games have recommended ages of 8+, while rush hour Jr worked for my kids at age 4.

Some NFL pillow pets are $9. My 8 year old got one for his birthday and loves it, and I just ordered one for my other DS (they each have different favorite teams).

I had planned on getting it but it was an add-on and I didn't have any other orders yesterday. I wish they wouldn't make their deals of the day to be add-ons. I thought this would be great for decorating sugar cookies.

They sell it at Micheal's for $15 so if you have a 40% off coupon it would be about the same price.

Anyone have Little Bits? Trying to decide whether I really need the Gadgets and Gizmos set or whether the Rule Your Room is enough. Both are part of the DOTD and prices seem good.

We have them and love them. The more the better, IME. Our kids love the sets we have at home, but really go nuts at the makerspace where they have a ton.

How old are your kids using Little Bits? My oldest is 8 (almost 9) and this honestly seems way above her head?... Also, I am not sure what she would use to 'lock up' and protect... she doesn't really have a diary or computer or things like that... but it does look super cute and intellectual...

My 8 yo likes them, but my 10 yo definitely is more adept at using them independently.

Thanks. I think I'll put it off for another year or two. I will stick to the other electronic board thing (can't remember it's name, but the popular one) until then.

They would be great to have for travel. I'm not familiar with car seat regulations for Germany. Maybe it's something you can find out via Google?
