** 2014 Holiday Gift Guide **
We will be officially starting our holiday gift guide on October 1st, but today…we wanted to surprise you all with a toy that we think little boys are going to love this holiday season!
It is called the Heli Beast and it is made by SilverLit. It is an unstoppable flying predator that does all kinds of cool things!!! It will fly in the air, it will jump on the ground and it will walk in all directions! We all know that boys love toys that are animated and do cool things!
This particular toy is made for ages 10 and up…but younger kids can play with it with adult supervision. What is really fun is this…your kids can take it outside to play with or they can play it indoors thanks to the infrared technology.
The Heli Beast comes with an easy-to-use remote control. You push one button up or down to make it go up or down. There is another button that you push to make it jump through obstacles and then there is a round joystick style button that you use to make it walk around in all directions.
We received this very cool toy for our review and my 2 nephews and god son have been playing with it every time they visit my home. It is nice & compact, light-weight too which makes it great for traveling or trips over to grandma’s house.
What a fun & creative toy…just in-time for the holiday gift-giving season!

I start my holiday shopping early when everything is on sale in the summer. I don’t usually buy toys that early, but pajamas, socks, etc. Things that would be marked down for back to school get purchased and put away for extra Christmas gifts.
I like to start my holiday shopping in October.
I usually start shopping late September/early October. My husband is the only one that works so we have to do a little at a time. Thank you!

I commented and liked the giveaway post for the Beatrix Girls on your Facebook page 😉
This year my sister and I decided to start our holiday shopping in July after the 4th since we have alot of people to buy for. My favorite toy or gift as a child were the Nancy Drew books I would get for my birthday and special days or Christmas. The toys that I remember all of us kids really liking were the Mousetrap game and the game Kerplunk, which my parents hated because it was so noisy lol 🙂
My favorite toy as a child was a Kermit the Frog plush 🙂
i usually start shopping after the 1st week in december
I like to start my holiday shopping the day after Christmas. I prefer to shop all year long so I am not frantically trying to get gifts at the last minute. Thank you!

I like to start my Christmas shopping right after Christmas for the following year. I loved Barbies when I was a girl! Thanks

I started my Christmas shopping a couple days after last Christmas. I am all done, now I just have to remember where I hid everything-
Sometime in Deceember.
I like to do my shopping year round. Get some great deals the week after Christmas.
I usually start in November, but I would like to start earlier. I always mean to, but the time just gets away from me.
My favorite toy when I was a child was my trampoline. I jumped and jumped for hours at a time..
I start the day after Christmas for the next year.
I start my shopping as soon as I see something my loved one’s would like! I keep a list throughout the year of the things people in my life mention they would like…
I like to start my shopping in Sept. for Christmas. My favorite childhood toys were my dolls and Tinker Toys.
Bingo bear was my favorite toy when I was a kid
I actually start right after Christmas. I start picking up all the sale items (wrapping papers and bows etc). There are also certain non-perishable gift baskets that are 50% or more off right after Christmas. I like to stock up.
I pick things up all year that I see on sale, but start shopping in earnest, in September.
When I was a kid I love the slinkie and the easy bake oven.
I would like to start my holiday shopping soon, but I always end up doing it last minute.
I start looking and buying from September on
I start my shopping in the middle in November.
My favorite was a Winnie the Pooh.
I start my holiday shopping the day after Christmas. It saves a lot of money because you can look for sales all year and get your gifts at a discount.
I like to do my holiday shopping in the summer. I see great deals, use coupons and bogo and go ahead a wrap them up ahead of time to save money. My favorite toy as a child was wall projector that showed the cartoon move that let you also hear the story from a tiny plastic record played on the machine to it. My sisters and i love that thing. I believe it was by matel toys. ???? thanks
I start collecting gifts in the summer and my favorite toy as a child was My Little Pony!
liked herbal remedies book post on fb – deborah t
I start as soon as possible – I already have 10 presents stashed away. 🙂 I love finding great deals at local thrift shops, and I really love shopping online (Amazon specifically) so I am constantly looking for awesome deals!
I always say I’m going to start early but never do. My favorite was my Lite Bright but they have a new style now that is expensive and sucks.
I always start holiday shopping in January at the Target 70 percent off sale, and then I shop all year round. At this point all gifts to nieces, nephews, brothers and in laws have been sent off in a big box, so now I can focus on our four kids.
I start in October.
I usually start Christmas shopping when the kids go back to school.
I usually start my Christmas shopping til November, but this year I did start in October
I usually start my Christmas shopping in November but I’m thinking of ideas and making a list right now. I like to put a lot of thought into my gifts and try to figure out something the person would really like or need.
I pretty much procrastinate until like the week before Christmas every year, but for some reason, this year, I’ve already started my shopping!
I like to start in september
If I was to win this I would be torn between keeping it or giving it to one of the grandchildren.
I pretty much shop all year round and finish on black friday.
I FB commented Here is a tasty treat! Mandarin Café Iced Coffee Cocktail Recipe
Name Stephanie Compton
I usually start my right after Thanksgiving
When do holiday shopping all year long. It can be easy to buy following sales. For my grandkids big gift, I have to wait until around late October to make sure I know what they really want, but we buy thoughtout the year when we see something.
start around Thanksgiving
Besides Christmas, I have two December birthdays that I like to make special separate from the holidays, so I start early. This would make a great!
I loved my bike, I rode it everywhere.
I am starting in early October.
I shop all the time. I love giving a gift I know the recipient will love, so I pick things up whenever I see them and put them away for the holidays.
I “like” to start my holiday shopping in January. However, that rarely really happens. I bought one t-shirt this past January and put it away for Christmas. Everything else is just sitting on lists waiting to be bought.
I like to start really early like september when there are items that are on sale. My favorite toy would be Lego.
This year I don’t have a lot of shopping to do. I have started already. I am broke, and have far too many grandkids now. I can’t even get much, but they get enough from the parents, good thing.
My favorite toy when I was a child was a Barbie doll
I start shopping and hopefully winning toys for the Toys for Tots program all year long pretty much the day after Christmas I start next years!
My favorite toy was my doll.
I start on Black Friday!
I like to start in the fall between October and beginning November
I usually start around Thanksgiving
We start shopping in the fall!
My favorite toy as a child was my bicycle. I rode it almost every day.
I always have a collection of gifts going year round so I have a head start every year, lol.
