Hope this is the right place to post this!!
I have the $25 e-gift card from Target from the whole car seat debacle.
I want to spend it on my son for Christmas. BUT I want to spend it the best way I can and get the most out of it. He's 2 and a half. So, help me find as much as possible to get from my gift card.
Thank you!!!

Are you trying to get mostly toys & books, mostly clothing items or both? Does there need to be a "big" present or will many small things be okay? Are character toys alright or do you avoid them? Plastic or natural toys? Are you ordering online or do you need to be able to purchase in-store?

(I love vicarious shopping!)

I can ONLY order online. He has tons of books and we go to the library all the time, so no books. Clothes are ok, one big present is not required...rather do lots of smaller stuff so he has lots to open (but not tiny things like hot wheels either). Character toys are ok, as long as they are age appropriate (pooh, little einstines, etc ok...not pokemon/etc). Wood is great but plastic is ok, if it's decent quality (I don't think they have the really crappy things on target.com like the dollar tree has).
So, hope that helps some??
I'd love it if people linked to the items on the site, it makes it easier for me!
Thanks!
