This probably isn't "hot news" considering it's midweek now, but just in case anyone is looking for sales, Toys R Us is currently offering three (3) Skylanders (regularly priced $9.99 to 10.99) for $20.00 (plus tax). Basically $6.67 per Skylander (can be Swap Force, Giants, or Spyro's Adventure generation characters). That's roughly 33% to 40% off TRU's retail price, comparable to a "buy 2, get one free" type sale.
They are also offering 50% of regular pricing for Giants (Ninjini, Hot Head, Bouncer, etc.). This means $8.00 plus tax.
Both are outstanding prices for new merchandise, especially considering it's Toys R Us and their selection tends to be better than other retailers this year.

Aw, no deals this week? I was hoping to get Blizzard Chill, finally. I should've got the 3 for $20 at TRU last week (I even bought Scratch while the deal was going on... oye).

Amazon currently has the Wii, PS3, and PS4 starters available at $37.49. All other versions are in the $40-$60 range, but as usual with Amazon it'd be a good idea to keep checking on the version you want this week, as they'll likely follow suit.

For Target's B2G1, has anyone tried using 3 of the $1 coupons from the Happy Meals? Some stores allow coupons to apply for a free item as long as it doesn't bring your total below $0. I'm really debating on going with Target or TRU. I don't want to spend too much money, but I figured I might jump on one of the sales with the coupons to pick up for my son's birthday in May. I was wanting to get Springtime Trigger Happy to put in my son's Easter basket. Right now, that's the only one I definitely want to get. If I were to go with TRU, I would probably just get Trap Shadow and get STH 50% off and use 2 of the coupons. Or I could see if Target has Nitro Freeze Blade and get him and Trap shadow and STH as my free one. I just hate having my free one be less than the 2 that I bought. I usually want to get one of equal value. But I definitely want to get him, if I can. If I wasn't getting STH, then going with Target might be the better deal and get 3 swappers for my son's birthday. Right now, though, I'm just tempted to get 1 swapper for his birthday and get 50% off STH. But I also want to get NFB. Decisions...decisions. Whether or not I could use 3 coupons at Target might help me make my decision. I just don't know.

I bought 5 nitro freeze blades and 1 nitro magna charges and used 6 $1 off just fine. after tax, redcard 5% and the sale it came to $56-ish for 6 swappers.

Hmmm... I might jump on that Dark Edition Starter Pack. I have two Xbox Ones, and I've been considering buying a second Starter Pack. It's unlikely that I'll ever play SSA or SG again, so I could also trade in my PS3 portal for an additional $10 off.

They will. They had the same promo during their Skylanders Day event. The employee at my store wasn't aware of the promo either, but he looked it up in the computer and it was there.

The portal trade-in works towards the Dark Edition as well. That's what I went to get and everything went smoothly.
obidawsn Gold Sparx Gems: 2901
#71 Posted: 15:32:20 11/04/2014
If I had the money to waste, I'd definitely consider the Dark Edition. If they are taking coupons, the $10 Happy Meal coupon and the $10 off with the portal (I have several lying around) would make it $40. That would probably be worth it for the variants, alone, but we've been having to save as much as we can, and haven't even picked up all the characters, yet, not less worry about variants of characters we already have. I might be willing to sell my original set, though, to make up for it, but I doubt I'd get much for it.

Haha thanks a bunch. I'm happy to help, and also because I think it can get confusing on a week to week basis when deals happen and there's a bunch of different threads and stuff.

I've actually been monitoring and I forgot to add the Gamestop and other stuff, but its Saturday so I think most of the sales will be done after today.
As for the McD Coupons, I believe Donatron is right about the not valid offer. However I think some stores are able to bypass it and allow you to stack with other offers. Not sure which ones specifically, but that was my understanding any way lol.

Ah sweet find, maxzter! I think the green stickers are their "Fire Sale Specials". I've seen other products with the green stickers at TRU and it's mostly stuff they're trying to basically close out and get rid of. I guess Scarlet Ninjini is on the chopping block. A friend of mine said he spotted LC Hex at Target with a special reduced price (I wanna say it was like $7.99?) as well so...maybe stores are trying to clear out of stuff that's been shelfwarming now?

Alright, added all this week's new sales. Walmart is the only one I saw and didn't add because the only sale was the starter pack, and the other stores beat the price anyways. (And it wasn't part of their normal ad, it was some random secondary ad lol)

Looks like the name of the game this week is buy 1 get one 50%.

Wow, this might be the best week (across all USA retailers) for Skylanders sales and promotions ever.
Target and GameStop is basically 33% off (as long as you buy 3), and TRU, Best Buy, and KMart is basically 25% off (as long as you buy 2).

If you are Gamers Unlocked at Best Buy you get 20% off Skylanders any time, but with the promo this week you get 20% off the first figure and then 60% off the second (100 x .8 x .5 = .4). I was able to grab 4 swappers for $36. I had wanted to get the regular versions of Night Shift, Magna Charge, Hoot Loop and Freeze Blade, but since I had their variants I was waiting for a solid deal. $9 each is good enough for me. I doubt we will get anything better on those for quite a while, and even then the best I could see is something along the lines of a BOGO which would make them $7.50 each. This is the first time other than when buying Lightcore figures I have purposely bought more than one version of a character. I really like the Swap Force and obviously don't see them ever being reposed so I would like to have some duplicates to have for the other paths, but I still refuse to buy the exact same figure more than once so at least I should end up with two versions of 9 out of the 16.

You can use the coupon. All coupons have that wording, but every store will take them. To them, it's just like cash. They get reimbursed for them and the manufacturer doesn't even know what price the store sold the item for. The stores just mail them all together to the manufacturer and get the money back from them. No store will deny you using a coupon for an item on sale. If a cashier denies it, then talk to a manager.

This week has been a no-go for me. I saw plenty of Sprinttime Trigger Happys at TRU on Friday, but knowing they were having the B1G150% off deal this week as well as a bunch of other stores, I decided to wait (one, because my son was with me, and two, because other stores were cheaper to begin with). But now, it seems, all of the stores are sold out. There were none at Best Buy or TRU. I did find Punk Shock at BB, but that was it. I was hoping to get STTH for my son's Easter basket and pick up Fryno (which is the the corelander he has at the top of his list). Kmart seems my only hope, unless the other stores get more in.

That's the announcement date for Skylanders 4.


EDIT; ToysRUs has knocked down the prices of Spyro's Adventure singles to $3.99, and Triples to $9.99. It's probably the last stock they have.

That is a really good deal, if you're in the market for a Wii U.
Although Amazon typically has this bundle for sale @ $235 (with Prime).
Also, note that this Wii U is the "basic" 8 GB version, not the "deluxe" 32 GB version.
For those interested in the exclusive Wash Buckler figurine, he sells for roughly $19-20 on eBay currently, new and loose.
