hi scott! the big toy book is usually in the local sunday papers around halloween ; sometimes its in stores a couple of days sooner. The sales usually last right up until the wednesday before thanksgiving.

 

I dont really know toi much about the dsi ; my daughter has the ds. I think the major difference is the camera, Im sure it has other perks too.

You can get on the internet with the dsi. That was the major selling point for DD :rolleyes:

The Toys R Us Big Toy Book Sale always starts the last Sunday in October. The ad does not come out in the PAPERS until the first day of the sale. I usually get the book in the mail a week or so before the sale. You can contact your local store to see how you can get on their mailing list.

The DSi is pretty cool! DS13 and DS6 have them; they have a camera, a voice recorder; they also have a sd slot so that it can also become a music player. My kids have the wireless hook-up but they only use it to go the the site to download games for the DSi. Also, once they take pics they can add affects to them as well. My kids sold their GBA SP's and there DS Lites to Gamestop to get theirs the day they were released so I didn't have to put out the full $170 for them.

my 7 year old has dsi and loves it. mostly for the nintendogs games. The dsi has a camera which is really cool and you can set it to wireless internet so i think you can chat with other kids that have a dsi, but for one that little you may as well save money and buy the regular ds. My daughter doesn't even use the camera or the extra functions and loves it for the games. I think DSI is about $170 and a DS is about $130

I've seen the DS Lite on sale at Target for $99. I would bet it will be at least that low for BF. At 5 I doubt he would even know the difference between a DS and a DSi! My DS, 9, has had a regular DS since he was about 4-5. This year he is finally getting the DS Lite because it will finally be on sale! ;)

Eeek! Ebay can really be scary around the holiday season. But, anywho, you're welcome for the info.

Does the big toy book ever get leaked before it is released?

Well, some ppl get it mailed to them early if they're on the mailing list & I think (not really sure) thats around the time when Brad posts it. Im not on the mailing list, so I would have to wait to get mine in the Sunday paper, but I remember getting to see it early because of GD. It was posted here last year a week before it came out in the papers, so MAYBE (fingers crossed) we can see it this coming Sunday! That would be awesome!
