Thanks to some really great deals and free shipping offers, I was able to get ALL of my holiday toy shopping done ONLINE (don't hate me, it's the Internet!) in my opinion, there's really no reason to fight the crowds, this year.
Unless, you like that sort of thing.
[cough...cough...weirdo...cough...cough]
Still, I've decided to celebrate Black Friday, Everyday by sharing and posting really great deals, or helpful links I find, while surfing the Internet this holiday season.
Aaaand, you're invited!!!

Today, we're visiting with ToyInfo.org and ToyAwards.com and checking out the top toys nominated for the 2010 Toy of the Year Awards!
Don't worry, there are STILL 23 shopping days left until Christmas (according to our favorite holiday website, http://www.claus.com) and plenty of time to check out two very helpful web sites I found, with tips and cool stuff to help folks (like me) choose the right toys for your family.
ToyInfo.org: Here, you'll find toy safety facts, free donwnloadable play guides, holiday shopping tips, recall information and discussion boards to help parents (like me) with toy and safe play questions. I love the one-stop-shopping feel of this website and, well, there IS a whole lot of information here, so be sure to grab a soothing beverage and take your time -- in my opinion, it's worth a visit.
ToyAwards.org: Here, you'll find the top toys nominated for the 2010 Toy of the Year Awards and this site also allows kids and parents to choose their favorite toys and register to win their choice of one or more of 11 prize packages, too.
What, with SO MUCH information available, these days, I know how difficult shopping can be and hope that sharing cool stuff like this helps...just a little.
For more information -- not to mention, make sure you double-check any offers, as you would, IRL -- please remember to visit the website.
FIND IT HERE: http://www.toyinfo.org and http://www.toyawards.org

More Black Friday, Everyday -- Happy Shopping!!!
