Saving - Amazon: Select Dream Lite Pets Starting At $16.66!

Both of my kids have a Dream Lite and love them dearly!  They are great to take on trips with us, so that they have a "night light" (so to speak) for the dark hotel rooms or bedrooms at Grandma's, etc! 

They are quite fun to just shut off all the lights in the living room and let them shine on the ceiling! 

And for night time, they do have an automatic shut-off option.

The Dream Lites normally sell for around $29.99 in stores.  You can currently grab a few different ones on Amazon for less than $20!  Plus when you spend $35 or more in qualifying purchases, you score free shipping!

Saving - Target: Skylanders Swap Force Starter Kit $30.40! Reg $74.99!

I had morning appointments today and didn't get on to check out all the hot pre-black Friday deals going on and was disappointed to find the Skylanders Swap Force Starter Kits selling for an awesome $37 today were virtually gone from the sites I was checking....BUT....good things come to those that wait, well, most times. :-)

I found an even better deal and will save almost another $7 off the already hot deal!

Target has these on a Temporary Price Cut online for $37.  Although they are out online, I found them in stock at my local store.

After talking with them, they will honor this online price.

Even better......there is a $5 off $24.99 or higher Skylander item coupon here. Update: This coupon specifically says it cannot be used on the starter pack once printed.

UPDATE: In store, when you purchase the starter pack, you receive a free character!  Even at the online matched price!

And....pay with your Red Card and save another 5%.  So in the end, should pay about $35.15 before tax for the starter kit and an extra character!  Woot!
