Heads up: Hot Toys ‘R Us toy deals!

If you still need some last minute items for your Easter baskets, Toys ‘R Us is having a Doorbusters sale that starts tomorrow. Even if you don’t need anything for Easter baskets, these are still great deals and you may want to pick up a few to store in your “gift” stash.

One of the things I noticed in the ad was that the Playskool Busy Basics Lullaby Gloworm will be on sale for $4.99 (50% off).  Pair that with the $2 Playskool Gloworm printable and get it for $2.99!

The Best Deals on Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2!

Today is the day ~ Toy Story 1 and 2 are being re-released in a Blu Ray/DVD combo pack.  I’m really excited about this (in case you haven’t noticed from recent posts).  I am planning on saving these for my son’s birthday which is 2 1/2 weeks away!

If you pre-ordered your movies at Toys ‘R Us, here’s the breakdown for you:

*Take your receipt with the pre-order card attached  (you have to have this to “prove” that you paid the $5 deposit on each movie)

*Your movies will ring up at $21.99/each

*$10 will be deduced because you paid a deposit last week

*You should receive an instant $10 deduction for the promotional store credit they are offering this week

*If you have purchased the movies previously, enter your UPC codes into the “code” box on your Disney Movie Rewards account and you will receive two links for printable Toy Story 1 and 2 upgrade coupons!   If you don’t have the upgrade coupons, there are $5 printable Toy Story 1 and 2 coupons (make sure you select the coupons that are valid in the USA because there are also coupons for Canada).

Your total out of pocket will be $3.98 if you have the upgrade coupons or $13.98 if you don’t have the upgrade coupons.  Don’t forget to enter your “Magic Code” found inside the box of each movie to get a free movie ticket to see Toy Story 3 when it comes out in June!  My kids are so excited to see the movie and I’m so excited to have “free” tickets to see it!  I’m even more excited that I was able to get three movies (we bought Princess and the Frog last week) and two movie tickets for less than what it would have cost us for two tickets alone!

If you didn’t pre-order the movie, Toys ‘R Us is still the cheapest place to purchase it.  Here’s the breakdown for that:

Buy Toy Story 1 – $21.99
Buy Toy Story 2 – $21.99

an instant $10 will be deducted from the store promotional credit

Use your Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $10 printable upgrade coupons (from entering your UPC codes from previous versions into your Disney Movie Rewards account) or the Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $5 printable coupons

Your total out of pocket will be $13.98 if you have the upgrade coupons or $23.98 if you have the $5 coupons

If you don’t have a Toys ‘R Us near you, Target also has a decent deal.  You may be able to price match using the Toys ‘R Us ad (or a Fry’s Electronics ad if you have one near you – their price is $19.97 this week), but this will be a YMMV because the Target version has an exclusive DVD-ROM game and some Target stores are very picky about having an “exact match.”  (if you are shopping at Target, make sure you check out my Target weekly deals post for other great deals)

Buy Toy Story 1 – $22.99
Buy Toy Story 2 – $22.99

an instant $10 will be deducted from the store promotional credit

Use your Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $10 printable upgrade coupons (from entering your UPC codes from previous versions into your Disney Movie Rewards account) or the Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $5 printable coupons

Your total out of pocket will be $15.98 if you have the upgrade coupons or $25.98 if you have the $5 coupons

If you are shopping at Toys ‘R Us for your movie, here are a few more deals you might want to check out:

*Hershey’s bagged Easter candy is $1.99 each.  There is a $2/3 Hersheys printable coupon on smartsource.com, so it’s like you get one bag for free when you buy 3 bags!  You pay $3.97 for all 3 bags.

*Johnson’s baby wipes are 3/$7 (through 3/25) – use the $1/1 Johnson’s baby product coupon from the 3-7 RP inserts and get 3/$4.  That’s not a bad deal if you need wipes! (this deal was in the BRU ad, not the TRU ad, but it had the TRU logo also)

*Little Tykes toys are Buy One, Get One Free!

Plus, a “Deal of the Day” today only: Buy 2 Strawberry Shortcake dolls or playsets, get one free. Plus, there is a printable coupon for $5 off a $20 Strawberry Shortcake purchase. The Strawberry Shortcake Mini Dolls are only $5.99. The Strawberry Shortcake Sweetest Styles set, Berry Bubbly Bath Set, and and Berry Stylish Mini Dressup Playset are all priced at $9.99 (according to online pricing, there may be others available in store). 

Here’s a scenario:

Buy one Strawberry Shortcake playset priced at $9.99
Buy 2 Strawberry Shortcake Mini Dolls – $5.99/each

Use $5/20 Strawberry Shortcake printable coupon
$5.99 will be deducted automatically for the Buy 2, get 1 free promotion

Spend $10.98 OOP!

The Princess & The Frog/Toy Story deal is not quite dead….

If you already took advantage of this deal yesterday (or you’re tired of hearing about this deal), feel free to skip this post (although there is some scoop about a few other noteworthy deals at the end you might want to check out).  Also, I plan to have my Target and Walgreens match-ups up this evening.  I just also have to go back to work tomorrow, so I’ve been trying to get in as much family time as I can before I go back.

If you were feeling bummed because you thought you had missed out on the Princess & The Frog/Toy Story deal that I posted about yesterday, you can still get in on the deal.  The prices aren’t quite as good because The Princess & The Frog is no longer on sale, but you can still get a decent price when all is said and done.  This will ONLY work through tomorrow (3/22) because the Toy Story movies come out on Tuesday (3/23) and will no longer be available for pre-order.

Here’s the breakdown if you want to buy The Princess & The Frog Blu Ray/DVD combo pack:

Buy The Princess & The Frog Blu Ray/DVD combo – $34.99

Pre-order Toy Story 1 & 2 (you will be charged a $5 deposit for each movie)

Total before coupons and discounts = $44.99

an instant $15 will be deducted for pre-ordering both Toy Story movies

$5 MAY be deducted for pre-ordering (this was a glitch and worked for me last night, but some people have reported it is no longer working)

use your $10 Princess & The Frog printable coupon

Total OOP (after coupons and discounts) = $19.99 (possibly $14.99 if the “glitch” is still working at your store)

Then, on Tuesday, follow the steps here for buying Toy Story 1 and 2.  You will be charged $16.99 per movie because you prepaid $5 for each movie already.  Use your two $10 upgrade coupons plus the $10 promotional instant discount and you end up paying $3.98 out of pocket for both movies.  Your total OOP for all three movies will be $23.97 (possibly $18.97 if the $5 glitch works at your store).  That’s just $7.99 per movie!

Don’t forget about these rebate offers which will make your out of pocket even less when all is said and done.  You can do two of the three rebate offers below:

*Buy 2 participating Band Aid products and the Princess and the Frog and get a $5 MIR!  You can get Band Aids for free or close to free at Target!

*Buy Disney’s Princess and the Frog and one or more rolls of FrogTape, get a $5 MIR!

*Buy 2 Success Rice products and Princess and the Frog, get a $5 MIR!  There was a $.50/1 Success Rice product coupon in the 1-31 RP insert (which should double if your stores double) and a $1/2 Success Rice product coupon in the 3-21 RP insert.

I’m guessing we’ll see more rebates pop up for the Toy Story movies, too, but that’s just pure speculation!

While you’re at Toys ‘R Us, here are a few other deals you may want to take advantage of:

*Hershey’s bagged Easter candy is $1.99 each.  There is a $2/3 Hersheys printable coupon on smartsource.com, so it’s like you get one bag for free when you buy 3 bags!  You pay $3.97 for all 3 bags.

*Johnson’s baby wipes are 3/$7 (through 3/25) – use the $1/1 Johnson’s baby product coupon from the 3-7 RP inserts and get 3/$4.  That’s not a bad deal if you need wipes! (this deal was in the BRU ad, not the TRU ad, but it had the TRU logo also)

*Little Tykes toys are Buy One, Get One Free!
