Please help with best deals for MAJOR shopping.

[misslolly]

I have coming here and reading these boards for approx. 1 month and I love the deals you guys pass on. Every year at our church we have a christmas for the kids and I have been in charge for the last several years. We take up an offering that usually allows us to spend around 5.00 average per present. We have to buy 200 presents from age groups of nursery on up to 12th grade. I have already gotten 20 of the legos at the 3.00@shipped price and am looking for the best buys to get the NICEST toys. Some of these children (most of them) are our bus kids and they otherwise don't get a Christmas.
I can post the numbers I need for each age group if that would help. Can you guys help?

Let's see what we can do to help...however we need to do so in Help Me Find a Deal...

Thank you in advance...

[bulbul]

I would suggest Amazon. Do a search for toys up to $10 and when you get the results, sort them by price from low to high and you will get tons of toys for even under $5. They currently have free shipping for orders of $100 or more and you can use a $15 off $60 coupon for toys: MMTYS3674539 and that would save you even more.

Good Luck

At babiesrus they have a foam bat and ball set for 2.98.Click on "under$3",go to page 42.There is also a pokemon playground ball for $1.98 or a pouch of pokemon marbles for the same.I didn't check the under $5...The legos you got were the best deal! Most of the items at the toy blowout have free ship.
