Didj Gaming System


Didj is Leap Frog's new educational gaming system for ages 6+. I wanted to buy it for my boys for Christmas but didn't care for the $100 price tag.
Costco carried it during the holidays for $90. I went in this week & found it there for $27 including 1 game.
I bought 2 of them & my boys have really liked it so far.
A few downsides:
-it eats batteries like mad & the charger has been recalled
option: ac wall adapter for $10
-the downloadable game it comes with doesn't save so you have to start from level 1 every time
Upsides:
-games are customizable: you can selesct spelling words & math problems at their level
-it's $27!!
UPDATE:
I found these Duracell High Draining rechargeable batteries that last forever! They come precharged & the can hold a charge for up to a yr.

Christmas Threw Up!

This is a picture of all the stuff I got at that Christmas Open House this weekend (minus 50 tree ornaments I wasn't going to lay out.) As I've told several of you, the deals were unreal.

$24 for all 5 trees

$8 each

$1 each

She still has items left that she's wanting to get rid of. I'm hoping I can get her to let me have an Open House here. I'll keep you posted!

IN THE MOOD FOR...
