amazon.com

Promising review: "Every year when my friend's church collects backpacks to distribute to children removed from abusive/neglectful homes, I buy three backpacks and fill them with basic personal care items, school supplies, cozy socks, a small flashlight, and a Beanie Baby. Last year I had to spend close to $10 each for the stuffed animals, and on top of everything else, it gets expensive. I am very grateful to have found these for such a reasonable price. I will use three this year and save the other two for next year. Thank you kindly to whomever is selling these lots! I should probably buy another." —A. Nony Moose

6. Still get startled by these rubber poppers.

Promising review: "I remembered these from when my kids were small and how much fun they had with them, so I got them for my grandchildren.

Next thing I heard was "your order of 100 Pokémon cards will be delivered in two days!" Not sure how or why the question was asked and it kind of makes you wonder about these devices. I debated cancelling the order, but for the sale price, I let it go. My grandson was thrilled!" —Amazon Customer

amazon.com

Anyone want to trade a Growlithe for a Vulpix?

Screen and sides of the device do have a few tiny tiny scrapes and nicks, but it's used and that's understandable. I have no complaints, and I absolutely love it!" —amazon user

18. Relive your fashion designer days with fashion plates.

amazon.com

Promising review: "My 5-year-old daughter loves these! We bought this set along with the Glamour Plates as a Christmas gift. I'm really happy that it came with a carrying case to organize all of the small pieces! There was even enough room in the case to fit the Glamour Plates, as well. The only slightly negative thing is that as you're rubbing the crayon on the paper over the plates, it leaves smudges. It's not a crystal clear outline like photos would suggest. But the smudging isn't terrible, and my 5 year old doesn't care. Overall, this set is great!" —Ashley S.
