'Tis the year for last minute shoppers? Costco lists the wooden KidKraft So Chic Dollhouse for $220 online, but my husband bought one last weekend in store for $100 less. Hot toy Kota The Triceratops seemed like a steal a week ago for $159, but now Target has slashed the dinosaur's price to $99. With all these drastic price reductions, would you ever pay original price?
Toy Box: KOTA The Triceratops
Forget the rocking horse, this holiday is all about a dinosaur! KOTA The Triceratops ($300) is a plush, prehistoric pal that your lil guy or gal can ride on. Six "D" batteries bring this endearing, movable toy to life. He stomps, laughs, munches on a leafy snack and responds to voice and touch. Ideal for children three and up, wee ones weighing less than 60 pounds can hop on his back and hang on to a built-in handle as he moves around (Kota does not walk).
Standing two and a half feet tall, this is the present that will command attention under your Christmas tree. Mommies looking for a deal should check out Costco stores where I spied this find for $235!
Update: Costco is now offering this in store with a rebate so the final price for the dinosaur is $150!
