FANTASTIC Deals At Toys R Us! 3/31 ONLY*****

My daughters get invited to a lot of birthday parties throughout the year and it seems like we're never prepared to shell out the cash for presents. Right around the time I started this blog, I decided to buy toys and other gifts when prices were at their lowest and store them in the "gift closet". I've been able to pick up some great, yet inexpensive gift items and our closet is slowly being stocked up for birthdays and Christmas.
Today's Toys R Us trip was no exception. Take a look:
