I have officially gone Christmas Shopping Crazy! Tonight I was in Wal-Mart calmly looking at toys. Just to see if there was anything else Santa needed to bring British when I made quite the discovery! They had marked down or rolled back (or whatever it is Wal-Mart does) the price of the Playskool Kota The Triceratops ride on dinosaur thing-a-ma-bob to $99.00*. This toy is regular 299.99, so I snatched one up! I NEVER come across deals like that!
I was so pleased with myself. I lugged the huge box out to my car to find it wouldn't fit in the back of my SUV. I had to call hubby to bring his truck. Of course he wasn't as pleased as I was...He was a little...Shall we say pissed? We had agreed that I had already gone a little overboard with the Santa shopping, and I go and get him a ride on dinosaur! What can I say? I'm a little crazy!! Anyway we got it home and Nathan pointed out it was for ages 3 and up...Hopefully he'll still be able to use it though. At 21 months British is already pretty tall.
Also, I went on the Wal-Mart website and they have Kota listed at 199.99. So, I don't know if it was a temporary markdown or what. But, if any of y'all wanna get one of these for your little dinosaur lovers, I suggest getting down to your local Wal-Mart ASAP to try to get in on the deal.
*The $99 price is marked on a display sign. On the actual aisle that the toy is on, it still says the regular price.
Oh and Hubby's not mad anymore! Now he just thinks it's funny!

Sounds like a great buy!
WOW what an awesome buy! I have no room for Kota the dino, but the kids want him. LOL, the cats would probably hide for days. HAHA!
That's a COOL TOY! I would have snapped one up, too!

Every year I make a budget and a list, and then I add, and I add...
