Christmas Toy Deals For 2014

Christmas has to be the most expensiveness time of the year doesn't it? We're left feeling the pinch as early as June, and for us last minute shoppers, many of us feel the full effect in December and January with little or no funds left in our accounts.

I'm sure you all know by now, I'm from a very big family, I have Spud, five nephews, one niece, six siblings, two parents, two step-parents, brother and sister in-laws, grandparents and lot's of close friends. At least with birthday's, you spread the cost throughout the year, as not everyone's birthday is in one month, let alone one day!

I've always liked to think I shop around and get the best deals and prices for presents that I'm after, especially for Spud as I like his money to go further, even if there is just a few pounds left, that can go towards smaller presents, instead of me paying full price for one of his items, and not saving any money whatsoever.




This year, Spud wrote to Father Christmas and asked for the following five items;

_______________________________________________________

1: Skylanders Trap Team PS3 Starter Set.

Spud has Skylanders Giants and Skylanders Swap Team, so he would love to complete his collection, along with lot's of the new and expensive figures brought out!

2: Disney Infinity 2.0 PS3 Starter Set.

Spud got Disney Infinity (the first edition) within a few weeks of it being released in shops thanks to a review opportunity. Spud's been a Disney fan since he was born, but as he moves away from Mickey, he still loves all his Disney films and Disney Infinity!

3. Lego Chima Mammoth Ice Blast.

This is just the bigger set that I've took from Spud's list, there is about seven Lego products on his list, and this one is the most colourful, most loudest and most appealing on Spud's letter to santa! It has about a 100 please Santa sayings around it!

4: Imaginex Jokers Laff Factory.
(It's how they spell laugh, not me!)

Spud loves all the Imaginex DC Super Hero items, and has most of the characters and Batcave already. He would love this to add to the 'dark' side of his collection! 

5: Teksta Robotic Puppy.

Everyone's been raving about the Teksta puppy, and as I sadly can't let Spud have a real puppy just yet, I wouldn't mind getting some practise in with this robot puppy!

So, as you can see, I have quite a few things that Spud is looking to get this Christmas, I've told him we may have to wait until his birthday for Disney Infinity version 2.0, however, if I can get a deal on each present, he may be able to get it for Christmas, who knows!



I don't spend my life looking at bargains, I don't have the time too, but thanks to quick and easy price comparison widgets, such as the one above from My Voucher Codes, it's very easy and straightforward to quickly pop onto the website, see what's on offer and where, and go and make an order if I wish too!

It's a lot easier than travelling from shop to shop, or even town to town, what I done one year when I couldn't find his most wanted present ANYWHERE!

Remember folkes, let's save money, not throw it away!
