Are you on a budget for Easter gifts this year? Coupons.com has $5.00 off coupons right now for several Hasbro games. The games I saw listed with $5 coupons were:

Sorry Sliders
Elefun
Guess Who Extra
Gator Golf

Games always make great gifts, for birthdays, Easter and Christmas, especially if you can find them on sale and use the coupons. Board games are an easy last minute gift, keep one or two stocked in the cupboard for last minute party invitations.

Holiday shopping can be very expensive.  With the economy in a shambles, I thought I’d share some suggestions for saving money on holiday shopping, particularly toy shopping.

Coupon Cabin
Coupon Mountain

I received an email today from DaycareMall about a sale on classroom tables.  I actually looked closely at these tables when I was looking for a small table for my triplets a year or so ago.  I ended up selecting a Step 2 plastic picnic table, but in hindsight, I wish I had chosen one of these classroom tables.
First, many of these tables provide an adjustable height feature, so they can work from the toddler years and well into the grade school years.  The tops are fully laminated on all sides, so they’re perfect for crafts.  From painting to …read more
