Hot Christmas Toys for 2011

Every year about this time I REALLY start focusing on what is going to be popular at Christmas time and start watching the sale ads.  As much as retailers want you to think that Black Friday is the best time to get good deals, many times the most popular toys either don't go on sale or there were better sales months ago.

I wanted to share this article with you to get you thinking about what the kids in your life may have on their wish list this year and to save you the headache of being out there at the last minute hunting down THE toy of the year.

Some of the toys on this list are actually on sale this week at Toys R Us!  For instance, Monster High dolls are on the most popular list for this year and Toys R Us is offering a FREE Exclusive Monster High Messenger or Hobo Bag ($19.99 value) with ANY Monster High doll or doll accessory purchase of $40 or more.  The dolls themselves are priced at $21.99 at Toys R Us.

I'll be keeping my eyes open for more hot toy lists for this year and of course any great deals that come along!
