Get Ready for Skylander’s Day at GameStop – June 27th

If you are a long time reader of this site, then you know that since he was just shy of 3 years old, Alexander has been a diehard Power Ranger fan. Everything he did involved Power Rangers and I thought that his obsession would never end.

And then it did.

Just before Christmas 2014, Alexander decided he was ready to move on and asked Santa for Skylanders Trap Team and boy oh boy did Santa deliver.

Not only did Alexander get Skylanders Trap Team for the Xbox One, he also got it to go with the new iPad mini that Santa brought him too!!

Skylanders Trap Team

Since Christmas, a lot has changed around here. We’ve bought all kinds of Skylanders, purchased Skylanders shirts, pajamas, hats and we’ve even thrown a Skylanders themed birthday party.

Honestly, our lives have changed now that Alexander loves Skylanders. A friend of mine shared on Facebook that he had located the Kaos trap at the GameStop in our local mall and minutes later my husband was on the phone calling to see if they had any left and having them hold on to the last one as he raced to the mall to get it.

Yeah, we are now THOSE parents.

I enjoy watching Alexander play Skylanders because it’s awesome to watch him get so excited when he beats a level or he talks about what he is doing. He’s also very proud of his growning Skylanders collection.

Needless to say he’s looking forward to the new Skylanders game coming out later this year.

As you may remember, the boys in my house (especially Alex and Zack) are hardcore gamers. Alexander has been learning over the years but has not developed a deep love just yet.

They both love to spend time blowing things up, role playing and what not and our XBOX360 has had so much use in the last 7 years that we are actually looking at replacing it with a new one sometime in the near future.

When it comes to gaming, I am all for supporting the cause and like to make sure the boys have the games they enjoy. Video games aren’t exactly cheap and now that we have another baby on the way, they are not at the top of my shopping list unless I can snag them with a really great deal.

Recently I have been hearing the boys talk about Far Cry 3 and how bad they both want to play it so of course, I do what I do best and turn to the internet and hunt for a good deal.

Well, today is the day to save big money on Far Cry 3 on Amazon because it is the Gold Box Deal of the Day, today, January 22nd!!!

You can pick up a copy of Far Cry 3 for the XBOX360, PS3, PC or get a PC Download for $34.99! That’s a savings of $25!!

I’m pretty sure that I am going to have some happy boys in my house once this new game arrives (hopefully this will allow me to get some much needed rest without being interrupted!)

It’s no surprise to anyone that Alex enjoys playing video games. Gaming is what he does to relax, spend time with the kids and sometimes to just blow off some steam.

When I first met Alex he was more of a PC gamer and spent a lot of his free time playing different games. Now that our family has grown and we’ve acquired multiple gaming systems, we all enjoy getting our game on from time to time.

With the recent release of Assassin’s Creed III, I have some boys who are really craving their XBOX 360 controllers! I love that gaming allows Alex, Zack and even the almost 5 year-old Alexander to bond. It is super cute to see the 3 of them snuggled in on the couch, controllers in hand and bonding.

Since the game was released I have heard multiple times how much they need to get their hands on Assassin’s Creed III and I am excited that they will finally have the opportunity to do just that!

I have a feeling I am going to have some happy boys who will be gaming over the winter break from school and I am looking forward to them making some memories together!

You can add Assassin’s Creed III to your collection for a great price today! Amazon’s Gold Box Deal of the Day is Assassin’s Creed 3! To buy: CLICK HERE!
