Well, with Halloween over now I guess we are officially into the holiday season. So how is the video game battle shapping up for this Christmas? Will there be lines of campers outside the stores this year for that special hard to find game or game system? We have did a little digging to come up with the top 5 must have video games and game systems for Christmas 2008. Starting with the ever popular Nintendo Wii game system. This has been a hot seller since its release Christmas 2006. It is showing signs of being the must have system this year again too. To avoid paying a premium price or having to camp out for one 2 days before Christmas, buy early. The systems are not impossible to get right now. Just be at Toys R Us,Target,Best Buy or Wal-mart early in the morning and you should be able to score one. Next on the list would be the Wii Fit exercise game that came out this past summer. They have been selling like wildfire since they were released, but I have been noticing them more often on the shelves this past month. Especially at Wal-Mart early in the mornings, but buy early with this item as well just in case. The other 3 hot items are all music video games. You have Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Band 2 out just in time for Christmas. These are both highly popular games, but I wouldnt worry about finding on them on the shelves. They are sure to be around. The last one might be kinda tough just because it is the latest Nintendo Wii game release. It is called Wii Music, and it is supposed to give the other 2 music games a run for their money this holiday shopping season. If the Wii and the Wii Fit are any indacator I would suggest to buy early for sure on this one. For more time and money saving tips please keep up with my shopping blog at www.CharityBuyz.com

What is going to be the item that people are flocking for this Christmas? Is the economy going to keep people from splurging for that hot and hard to find item? Or is it the fact that everything is same old same old this year? I usually am one of the people standing in line to get that hard to find item so I can run home to put it on Ebay, but due to the boycott (see www.EbayFeegouge.com) I am no longer selling on their site. So I can sit back this year and just observe and report what I see, and so far I havent seen anything. The Elmo live has been a big let down for sellers from what I have seen, but what can you expect when a new version comes out every other year. Not to mention it is the highest price ever at roughly $60.00. The Nintendo Wii is still selling strong, but they are getting pretty easy to find and the demand is not quite as great so I dont think they will be fetching premium prices this holiday season. The Wii Fit exercise game that came out over the summer on the other hand still has a chance. They are still steadily fetching $20-30.00 over what they cost at the store. So there is a chance they will get scarce and might get up around $150.00 or so after Thanksgiving when the shopping season officially kicks off. I have also noticed the Disney Cars new diecast collection has released and as usual some of them are fetching a higher price right now, but if you just wait they will come down as quick as they went up. I did run across and item that showed potential in my searches. It was something called “Kipper the talking dog”. I only found one on Ebay and it was sitting at $76.00. There were some other people that had put up the beanie version, but it wasnt fetching as much. So keep an eye out for that one. The bottom line I guess would be that this Christmas shopping season you may as well save your time and energy and shop from the comfort of home at one of the many online malls at your finertips such as www.CharityBuyz.com or even check out the www.JonasBrothersBlog.com charity mall. If you start now you will have a greater chance of getting that hard to find item, and waiting for shipping wont be a problem!!
