Chopin - fuchsia cat bag: $4.99 @ Talize (RSP: $30)
Hello Kitty face bag: $1.99 @ Talize (RSP: $18+)
Giant Clawdeen doll: $3.99 @ Value Village
The bag was unused, otherwise I probably wouldn't have bought it. I thought it was just a cheap bag from China, but turns out it's made in Italy! The company also makes these cute dachshund bags.
Don't really buy Monster High dolls anymore, but I've always wanted the big ones. I'd still like to find the other mains..Frankie, Lagoona, and Draculaura. All complete and this price would be great!
I actually had the hello kitty case added to my amazon wish list. It's a toy, came with a bunch of plastic accessories:
Previous owner broke off the handle. Seemed like the right choice.

Bag of toys: $2.99 @ Value Village
What was in the bag:
Of course I wanted the Blythes! But the accessories were a nice bonus. A few of them are monster high.
Hiking trip blythe. I actually have her shoes from another doll I found, so she's nearly complete.
Swim and sun blythe. I don't have anything of hers, but I do have another nude one.

Monster High - Ghoulia scooter: $3.99 (RSP: $19.99)
Famosa - I love Minnie picnic car: $3.99 (RSP: $29.99+ for the entire set)
Both @ Value Village.
A bit more than I wanted to pay for the scooter, but they were both in great condition. Plus, I had wanted both of them, and I haven't found either before!
I had some great news today, so these were just icing on the case. I'm so glad I found them!
They are missing a few things though. The scooter is just missing the kickstand, and of course the accessories.
The car's even worse! It's missing the rear mirrors, and even worse, both seats! But those dolls are so small, none of my other dolls could fit with the seats in anyway. Still, I would have preferred to have them.
I'll keep a lookout for a complete one in the future! For now, this one's fine, especially compared to retail. You can't even notice the seats aren't there when the dolls are in there anyway.

Lot of Monster High accessories and LPS blythe: $2.99 @ Value village
This was such a great find! Most of the dolls I find secondhand are missing all of their accessories, so I was surprised to find something like this. There was actually more stuff in the locker, so it was even better than I expected!
Lagoona's tiny pen was even in there! This kid must have really taken care of her stuff. My favourite is the tiny dvd that says "scary human movies." There was also some lalaloopsy mini stuff so I was happy about that.
And for the LPS blythe too, even though I already have her. I haven't found one in a long time! I actually found this on my birthday, but I never bothered to post it until now.

All off eBay
I went a little nuts on the monster high shoes, but I couldn't help it! Sometimes, the shoes are the best part about the doll...so I had to jump on the chance to buy them alone, and for such reasonable prices!
Especially those Ever After High shoes. Those are amazing! I don't like the dolls at all, so it's nice to be able to get these separately.
That's why I went nuts with the skeleton shoes! I thought they were the coolest shoes I've ever seen, and they were the main reason I got the CAM pack in the first place. I might have gotten more; I only bought 5 because that's all the seller had at the moment!
I just wish I got Cupid's before they were sold out. They're so beautiful!
The actual doll is decent looking, but maybe I'm mainly swayed by her pink hair. She's the only ever after doll I would want to buy...maybe I will if a good sale comes along.

Bag of doll stands: $1.99
Monster High - Meowlody doll: $4.99
Bag of dolls: $1.99
All @ Value Village
Thank goodness they didn't raise the price in my city! I found plenty in this price range, and this was one of them:
I of course bought them for the 2 littlest pet shop blythes. Yay, 2 of them! I'll probably keep the Madam Alexander dolls too.
I already have the Meowlody, but since she was just missing her purse, it seemed like a good deal. My other ones are on display, so I can keep those ones pristine and use this one instead!
I'm out of monster high stands, so I thought the bag of them was a good deal. There were 4 MH stands and one stand I haven't figured out yet. There are indents for huge feet on the unidentified one, but it's not very tall...no markings either, so it's a mystery!
The tan blythe has the worst hair I've ever seen. I didn't think it was salvageable, but it looks ok after a comb and wash. It even looks bad in the promos!
Her boots were super cute though, I would have liked to have them. The other one came with a car:
I actually had a chance to get the car for $2, but I didn't think it looked that great...nothing opened up, plus the one I found had some wear to it Though I do wish I bought it now, since I haven't found it again yet!

Monster High - Swim class Draculaura (RSP: $9.94 - $19.99)
Monster High - Swim class Lagoona (RSP: $9.94 - $19.99)
$2.76 for both @ Superstore
Thanks to my PC points! I still have $20 left, but I'm waiting for another sale. I've already waited for these ones for almost a year now! I'm glad I did, because they finally went down to a price I was willing to pay.
I'm not normally that crazy about Draculaura, but I really like this edition of her. Lagoona was the one I really wanted though - she's perfect! I love her glasses the most.
This line has only been found at Superstore in my country. I'm glad, since I don't know if they would have ever gotten this low otherwise!

Monster High - Cleo's vanity: $2.99
Lil Bratz - NIB Stylin' space furniture pack: $2.99 (RSP: $9.99+)
Both @ Value Village.
There's been a toy drought lately, and I really didn't think this one would break it! This location doesn't have that many toys, and any good ones are severely overpriced. That's why I was surprised these ones were priced so reasonably!
I was a bit unsure about this one, but since I liked some of the accessories (especially the shoe rack), I decided to get it. It being new in box helped too!
I was super happy about getting Cleo's vanity, since I was totally kicking myself for not getting it at $15. I heard some people were finding it for $5, so I held out...well, it never got that low here of course.
It is missing a lot of stuff though, including extra cats at the legs, the chair, and all of the accessories. I would still like a complete one someday. It's the most beautiful vanity I've ever seen!

$67.45 for all @ Amazon
Again, including shipping and customs! That works out to $11.24 per doll, which would probably never happen here (unless they were all around at target clearance time!). I made this order two days after the other one...these ones weren't on sale back then!
I got $4 of my customs fees deposit back on this one. None of the prices went any lower, but these were all pretty rock bottom. I was so surprised about that ILS Draculaura! That's just insane.
To think...there would have been free shipping and no customs fees if I lived in the US. Those lucky Americans!

Novi Stars - Curl n' Coil Roe Botik (RSP: $9.99 - $29.99)
$140.16 for all @ Amazon
That's including shipping and customs!! I've never seen a sale this low before on amazon, so I had to splurge. That works out to $12.75 per doll, which would never happen here!
I ended up getting $20 back because the prices kept on changing a few days after, and I was able to get price adjustments. Also, I got most of my customs fees deposits back, which was also great.
I just wish I didn't buy the classroom set, since I could have gotten them or $12 at Target afterwards.
I also wish I only bought one 13 Wishes Frankie...I didn't even know I ordered 2! That was a mistake.
I'm happiest about the novi stars - these are the best ones yet! Tily Vison is my favourite one ever. I almost didn't buy the other one, but since I'd never have a chance to otherwise, I decided I might as well. They were never sold in Canada!
I'm also happy that I finally have a Howleen and a Catrine. I do want their other versions, but I probably won't buy them unless they go on sale.

I made this order on December 15. It arrived a while ago, but I was too overwhelmed to blog about it! I wonder if sales will be this good again at that time next year.

Monster High - Scaris Ghoulia Yelps
Monster High - Scaris Draculaura
$4.49 each @ Target (RSP: $16.99 each)
I was so surprised! I checked this one before and thought I already saw everything...then when I was looking for the Valentine's stuff, I was surprised to see a bunch of clearance toys on the first floor!
The toy section is on the 2nd floor, which is where I looked before. The selection on the first floor was the as big as their ENTIRE toy section, I was so shocked!! I wish I saw this before, maybe they had even better finds down here the first day I came.
I'm really happy about the Ghoulia. She's the one I initially wanted, and this is the lowest anyone can expect to pay for her anywhere!
I already bought the Draculaura last time, but for this price, I couldn't pass her up!

Novi Stars - Sila Clops: $4.98 (RSP: $19.98)
Novi Stars - Alie Lectric: $4.98 (RSP: $19.98)

Monster High - I love shoes Frankie Stein: $20.97 (RSP: $34.99)
Monster High - Black Carpet Lagoona: $13.77 (RSP: $22.99)All @ Toys r us
I came because they were having a 40% off sale on all monster high dolls - that sounds like a lot, but since their prices are high, the deals only end up being reasonable. Still, this is the best discount they've ever offered so far.
I've wanted that Frankie for a long time! She's an exclusive, so she'll never be cheaper anywhere else, so I splurged.
I love that Lagoona too...I couldn't wait for a sale (probably would have been half a year away) so I bought her now. She'd probably only be a few dollars less at that time anyway.
The novi stars were a surprise. I never knew that toys r us marked down their prices more than once! I've never seen it anyway, until now.
They were clearanced at $10 for the longest time, which of course, wasn't a deal. So I was surprised to see them at this price today. That's even cheaper than target!
Target didn't have Alie, otherwise I would have bought her then. I had a chance to buy Sila for about $6, but I just didn't like her that much.
I don't like her any more now, but I like her better at that price! Plus, I don't know if they're going to be sold anymore, so for $5 it was a no-brainer.
I was also happy to find the outfit. I passed on it at target when it was $2.99, and ended up regretting it when I started being really into them.
I did leave one outfit behind...I hope I don't end up regretting that one! It just didn't wow me, last time, this time, or any other time I looked at it. Maybe I'll change my mind, who knows?

Monster High - Lagoona fashion pack: $2.99 @ Target (RSP: $9.99)
Fashion packs aren't normally worth it, but since Lagoona is my favourite, I thought it was worth picking up. I always have doubles of her and it's nice to have them in different outfits.
Still, considering what you get, the price doesn't seem like that great of a deal. That dress is pretty boring and kind of crappy.
Regular retail is a joke! I've gotten full dolls with nicer outfits for less than that.

Monster High - Spectra Party Lounge playset: $13.49 (RSP: $45)
Monster High - Cleo Oasis playset: $14.24 (RSP: $47)
All @ Target
I was so surprised to find all of these. Of course I was hoping, especially after I already got that Spectra playset for $22.
This location was in the busiest mall around, so I expected it to be the most picked over -- not the case! They still had a ton of stuff left, but no single dolls.
Still, no other place has had every fashion pack! I passed on Operetta and Robecca since I don't like them that much.
I didn't think I'd buy the Cleo playset, since I thought the doll was kind of ugly for some reason. This one probably had around 10, and all but 2 were really wonky!
I found one perfect one that was beautiful, so I guess the other ones I had seen before all had horrible face paint. The proportions were all wrong, it really ruined her appeal.
Even the second decent one was a bit odd. Her eyes were way bigger than normal, but I bought the narrow eyed one because it seemed more "her."
I was unsure about the Draculaura pack, since it didn't really seem as good a deal compared to the other ones. Plus, the outfit wasn't that great, especially the dress.
I might return it. We'll see!
Monster High - Frankie Stein's vanity: $7.49 @ Target (RSP: $25)
I normally don't buy these things, but I can't help it when it's Frankie. She's got such neat accessories, and I've already got her bed....she needs a vanity too!
Besides, I'm pretty sure this is the cheapest I'll ever find it. Even if I found one secondhand, it would probably be missing all of the small parts.
I would have liked to find Lagoona's shower too. Well, there are still some more to visit, so maybe I'll get lucky!

Monster High - Ghouls Alive Frankie Stein (RSP: $8.99 - $29.99)
Monster High - Scaris Jinafire Long (RSP: $8.99 - $29.99)
All free @ Target!
How did I ever live without Target?? I remember going to the states once and being very impressed with their toy pricing. I'm so glad they finally made it over here, and that the sales are just as good! I was waiting for things to go to 70% off and they finally did.
Everything was free because I had a $40 voucher from Mattel. The total including tax was around $38.50, so I forfeited $1.50.
I actually bought another lab partner set at first, but decided I didn't want to pay $10 extra. I really didn't want triplicates, even though it would have been worth it!
I already have the one I bought off of amazon (really wish I didn't buy that one now!). I didn't know there were so many differences in the packaging. I think the american one looks better. There are more details.
I ended up opening the american one, but I put the canadian one in the american packaging because I liked it better.
Plus, the Ghoulia I bought today had such huge lips! I liked the Cleo slightly better, but I didn't want to switch the dolls.
I probably would have only bought the Jinafire and the Draculaura if I didn't have the voucher. I just bought the others (even though I already had them) to use it up. It expires soon and I didn't really feel like looking around.
I do want to check out the other targets, but there are no guarantees that they'll have any either. But hopefully I'll be surprised!
I don't really like that Draculaura, but for the price, I couldn't say no! I don't have her already. If she was marked as being on clearance, I doubt she would have been there. I'm really hoping I find a Ghoulia too, I would have paid half price for her!

Monster High dolls: $2 each for the clothed ones, $1.50 each for the nude ones @ Talize (7 days)
From left to right: Sweet 1600 Frankie, Signature Frankie w/Day at the Maul outfit, Roller Maze Ghoulia, Skull Shores Lagoona, Sweet 1600 Draculaura.
Finally! It's been a while. I have all but one of these, but they were so cheap I couldn't resist. It was half off day at Talize...thank goodness they include everything. Value Village sure doesn't!
I found the Draculaura first, then the Ghoulia, then the Frankies, Lagoona last. I was really happy about the Sweet 1600 Frankie because I've always wanted her!
They just released a cheap $12 version at Wal mart, but I couldn't find it anywhere here. This one's even better because the original version has tinsel!
She's near complete too...she's only missing one bracelet and her purse. She's like new!
The other ones are in great condition too. I don't think I would have picked them up for full price though.
I can't help but feel annoyed though...this is the first time I've seen singles at Talize! Normally they group dolls 3-4 in a pack. They're totally capitalizing on the brand, but at least they're not as bad as VV. I still regret paying $6 for my first nude doll!
On another note, I can't believe they were there for almost a week! I'm glad I don't have much competition at this store.

Monster High - Home Ick Heath and Abbey 2 pack: $19.99 (RSP: $39.99+)
Monster High - 13 wishes Party Lounge with Spectra doll: $22.49 (RSP: $45+)
Both @ Target
I was so surprised that these went on clearance already...they only came out somewhat recently! They're still full price at all of the other locations.
When I went to Target today, the Heath pack is what I really wanted. I didn't see it when I first looked, which was disappointing...but when I was walking around, I managed to see a lone one tucked away in another section. Score!
I was unsure about the playset. I bought it because it functions as a speaker, which I thought was neat. I don't really like Spectra, but I guess she's better than nothing.
Well, the playset is kind of crappy! It's flimsy and doesn't really do much, or look that great. It's ok for the price I paid, but retail is definitely a rip off. I've seen it for $55 in some places!
Cleo's playset was on clearance too, for $23.74. I was tempted, but I didn't buy it because the playset was kind of dumb, plus I thought the doll was ugly (even though I do like Cleos).
I'm hoping it'll still be around when things are 70% off..it would be a total steal at that price!
The party lounge too. I saw a bunch of them there, so it seems somewhat likely that it'll be there for the final markdown. Here's hoping!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Michelangelo USB speaker: $6.49 (RSP: $12.99 - $14.99)
Monster High - Dead Tired Lagoona Blue: $9.99 (RSP: $14.99 - $19.99)
Both @ Canadian Tire
It was cheaper because I had a $5 off coupon...of course, I had to spend $35 to get it, so I ended up using the rest on a gift. I'm going to take the coupon off from the Lagoona doll, it justifies the price then!
