Last year, Amazon unveiled their Frustration Free Packaging
I hadn’t heard much about it, but I did stumble on one accidentally. My mother was determined to buy my youngest daughter a Little Mommy potty doll—in hopes of encouraging our then 2-year-old to ditch those diapers. I was determined to find my mother a deal because I just couldn’t handle unleashing a $60 toy on my destructive child. As a result, I was frequently checking Amazon for price drops.
That’s when I realized there were 2 versions of the doll—the regular, colorful box for $59.99 and the “Frustration Free Packaging” doll for $29.99. Considering that most kids love the plain, boring cardboard box more than the gift anyway, it was an easy decision. Hooray for getting the exact same thing for half price!
for $79.99—pretty price but sure to be at the top of the wishlist for a lot of little boys. You can save yourself $30 buy purchasing the Frustration Free Packaging version!Be sure to check for different versions of any product you purchase at Amazon—you never know when you will find a deal on something it is almost exactly the same. Aside from this packaging program, books are another one to watch closely. Sometimes a hardback book will have a special offer that makes it less expensive than the paperback version.
