21 Popular Toys and Games for Kids This Year

November 17, 2016 by Lisa Park + Leave a Comment

holiday-toys-and-games-for-kids-21

With the holidays right around the corner, it’s time to start purchasing the gifts you are planning to get your kids for Christmas. Here are 21 popular and best selling toys and games this year that the kids will love. I’ve included which store I found to have the best price, but each store can change its price at any time. If you find a better deal than the one listed, please let me know and I’ll update it so everyone can get that same great deal.

To save even more money on your purchases, shop online using a cash back site such as TopCashBack or Ebates. I’ve used both of these cash back sites and like them. Plus, if you sign up with either TopCashBack or Ebates, you’ll receive $10!

Are you wanting to get out of debt or save up a do Are you wanting to get out of debt or save up a down payment for a home? Do you want to stop living paycheck to paycheck or save for a big family vacation? Determine what is motivating you to set some financial goals.

Once you determine your goal, determine how much money to save each month, then break it down to how much to save per week. You may not be able to save $500 a month, but maybe you can save $200 a month. That means you would set aside $50 a week.
