Amazon reveals top 10 toys for Christmas
We’ve compared the current prices to other retailers to see if you can get a better deal elsewhere – and in some cases we found you can.
It’s worth keeping an eye out on Amazon though because prices may drop on Black Friday, which this year takes place on November 25.
Before splashing your cash on these toys, remember to check sites such as Price Spy and Idealo to find out if you can buy items cheaper at another store.
Free online price trackers like Price History and CamelCamelCamel will also give you an idea of whether you can save cash by buying it later in the year.
Here are the top toys Amazon reckons your children will want under the tree this year, in price order starting with the cheapest.
