Guys this is half over...but there are still 6 days left. You may want to check out the Toys R Us website. They are offering 3 products each day by email coupon only. It is a huge savings...I got an MP3 player today for $19.99 and a CD player a few days back for $4.99. Check it out...6 days left. Oh, get to the store early..they run out of the items faster and faster as people catch on. It is called the 12 days of Christmas promotion. I hope this link will work. f.e.toysrus.com/s/18/398366091/12Days.html |

Thanks, Jackie! I hear they are going to have a 512 MB MP3 player on day 8. I'm not sure how accurate my sources are.

OK friends, It is true....today is a 512 Craig mp3 player for $49.99. This is a great deal, I bought a Sandisk 512 for 1/2 price at circuit city the day after thanksgiving for $47. I have not used the Craig, so can't vouch for the brand...my Sandisk does have a slot for an additional card memory that means I can add on up to 2gigs of memory. I bought mine because I am a total geek that listens to books on cassatte and Cd (only way I have time to "read") from my local library. I found out that our library now has free audio books that I can check out over the computer and down load to the mp3 player without ever going out the door, then at the end of 21 days..the file just scrambles....so no returning or late fees. The only advice the library gave me was to NOT get an IPOD because they don't license that kind of download. I did do some research into players and you are pretty much safe if they have the "plays for sure" logo that many companies are adopting. Again, I am not sure about Craig brand....but probably a quick visit to their website would let you know. I have not yet loaded a book, but loading some songs was easy and the player lets me search by song title or album, or artist, or plays random...pretty cool. The sandisk also has fm radio with 20 presets and plays 17 hours on one AAA battery. If you have a choice....get one with expansion memory. Here's a link that might have info www.pcmag.com/category2/0,1874,2359,00.asp |

I agree, Trish...I was unimpressed when I saw that one....I managed to get a 7 inch DVD player on Black Friday....for $60.....the one Toys R Us had is only 3 and 1/2 inches.....pretty small !
