I love Amazon this time of year, because this is when they start selling off stuff in order to get ready for Christmas. Some of their sales merchandise is trendy, but some of it stays popular from year to year. Even if you don’t have young kids or young relatives, you may want to consider buying some toys for your area’s program for needy children.
If you like what you see, it’s best to buy it right then. Recently, I bought one toy for five bucks on clearance, then it sold out. It’s back in stock, but they’re selling it for $40 now. Ouch! In no particular order, I present the following deals. I don’t know if they’re popular or not, I’m just going by the markdown.
Matchbox Trash Truck, was 9.99, now 4.19
Matchbox Dump Truck was 7.99 now 4.19
Backyardigans Mountie Tyrone was $24.99 now $5.79
Buzzin’ Beehive was $9.99 now $3.95
There’s a lot more at Amazon, this is just a sample. I’ll post more if people are interested. Remember, these toys and many other items at Amazon ship free when you spend 25 dollars or more. That means you don’t have to spend your time or your gas, just go to Amazon and click away.
