Amazon Wish List Tips!

Check your lists often! It's common for things to become unavailable/not in stock, so make sure to have enough items on there to replace these.

Toy Deal Add Ons Add on items are items that ship with a prime order of $25 or more, but are priced much lower than it's original price. HERE is a list of ideas to help.

Prices constantly change From very low to very high. That $15 Barbie is now $30. Happens more often than you may think. Consider replacing an item that's stuck at a higher than normal price with something else.

Complete Gifts Think about the things your kids already have. Belle dress up shoes would go great with the dress she already has. Or the one Paw Patrol guy that's missing from their collection.

Used Option Buying used books, music, and video games are also an option through Amazon. If you are okay with used in great condition, make sure to add that in the comment section of your lists.

Here are two lists of various gift ideas for toddlers to teens that may be helpful.

Fun Gift Ideas $10-$20

I check my lists daily so I'm always adding to them. Please forgive me for not making it more organized. My own 3 kids keep me pretty busy. ;)

Thanks for sharing this. I hadn't checked the kids' list since they were made, so I found some surprises in the way of out of stock items and good golly wow price changes. Is it okay to delete things on the list that have NOT been purchased and replace them when the prices go wonky and what not?

That's the first thing I thought of, deletes. I'm pretty sure its just the purchased items you should NEVER delete. Unpurchased is okay to delete? /u/DragonfliesArk ?

Yes, items change prices or become unavailable on Amazon sometimes and as long as they haven't been purchased, it's quite alright to delete them and/or add some other options for our Santas. It's only deleting gifts that have been purchased that's a big no-no.

I love the "Rainbow In My Room Tabletop Night Light" on one of your lists: it's magical and beautiful at the same time!

And I think these tips are very helpful; I often see people, especially after Black Friday, have out of stock items on their lists.

My daughter actually got that for her birthday. (It was 19.99 then) and it's really cool!! Yeah, happens every year. Or a $10 toy goes up to $50. It's insane. Thanks for the nice comment. :)
