Toys R Us has a package deal available this week: For $154.97, buy the Nintendo DS Lite (any color) and choose one of four select games as well as a DS trifold case with stylus. Retail value is $179.97. The games are: Wall-E, High School Musical 3: Senior Year, Pokemon Rangers Shadow of Almia and Tinkerbell. Not a bad deal, if you or someone on your gift list wants one of those games.

A word to the wise about value packs, or any buy 1-get 1 deals and things like that: Don’t buy into the bundle or deal thinking you can game the system by returning what you don’t want later. In almost all cases, they’ll just readjust the price and you’ll lose your savings.
