Some of the prices are going back to normal so check before you buy, I started to delete some of these items because prices were going back up, but then the prices came back down, you know how Amazon is. So I just left the listing as it is & will continue to add good deals.
Make sure to check these prices against what you paid this weekend. I just got back over $60
I am hoping this time Amazon doesn't cheat me. Last time they canceled my order for a Logitech Quickcam siting price mistake on their site. They entice you with low prices, but hey they are just short of the $25 free shipping threshold, so what do you do, of course buy something else to take you over the threshold and lo and behold the irresistibly priced item had a price mistake, so unfortunately Amazon will have to cancel your order, too bad.

I know you got flamed for your comment, but you're right. I jumped on Amazon's Prime trial in October, ending just after BF. During that trial, I was given top priority, had nothing to worry about with items being in stock, etc. That's their lure, it turns out. After the trial ended, the orders I've had that qualified for free shipping were all delayed and rescheduled for delivery, obviously given lowest priority. I got in on the logitech deal on BF and wasn't cancelled. Had I not been on Prime, I absolutely believe the order would've been cancelled.
What I've learned from this, is Amazon's practices are very similar to NetFlix's. NetFlix gives top priority to their trial and brand new members, all while "rewarding" their regular customers with long wait lists and slow shipments.
My advice? If you know you're getting a steal of a deal, pay for faster shipping, or your order will most likely be cancelled.

Stop whining on Amazon. It is one of the best, if not THE best, online retailer. Amazon business is business. If some of you (who ordered hundreds of $2 worth of single order during trial period for 2nd day air shipping, etc.) stop shopping here, all the best.
I noticed the prices dropping last night as I was shopping and kept thinking I was going crazy and imagining the prices were higher earlier (I hadn't added them to my cart and, therefore, there wasn't a message that said the price had gone down, etc. etc.) At any rate, I had been wanting this game:
and missed out on the Hasbro 50% off deal the other day. I was going to pay a bit more for it BUT the price magically dropped to $14 which is a really amazing price.
I agree with PP that I worry that some orders might be delayed or cancelled. It is still worth a shot. I'm not buying any must have for my kids and counting on them coming in (my kids were really disappointed after several orders got cancelled earlier this year).
Make sure everyone is watching for price drops. I just got a $5.10 adjustment from an order I placed just a few days ago.
I go the refund on Rubik's Revenge Cube 4 X 4 which is a steal now at $6.99.
That is a GREAT price for the giant Friendship Adventure Dora. I paid $78 on one of those WalMart daily specials. It's already shipped, but for this price difference, I'll return that one.
Thanks, OP! Finding the perfect stocking stuffers as well.
