Wow! If you have a Staples nearby, check out this possible *HOT deal you may be able to score! I just received the above photo from Hip2Save reader Dan saying he found the LeapPad 2 Explorer Princess Bundle on clearance at his Staples for only $17.50 (regularly $109.99!). Keep in mind that this deal may be regional, so I highly recommend calling your local store before making a special trip over there. Come back and let us know if you find the same deal at your store!

    sounds like the store in my area had them…I’ll called around to several and all of them are out.

  7. Erica L

    • RT

      I found two in Rancho San Diego! I only bought one so someone else could get one! The second one was already gone in the time it took me to drive over and get one!

    • Sam

      • Vanessa

        Long Island

        • kath

          Hi vanessa, which area in LI is that? My husband is going on a business trip there tomorrow and I might be able to convince him to do a side trip and buy this hehe πŸ™‚

          • Vanessa

            I got the last 2 at the store near me in Port Jefferson. They were not marked, but I asked the guy on the phone to do a price check. He was shocked at the price. He put them on hold for me. If they are not marked clearance in the other stores, maybe they will have some left. There are many Staples on Long Island and I think it would be worth it of you called around. This just happened to be the 1st store I called.

  13. Ashley

    I found one at a store near me but it’s regular price. Do you think they would price match this great offer?

    • Becky

      Be sure to ask them to do a price check. When I called earlier they told me $109. I asked them to double check the price and it ran up $17.50!

  14. heidi

    Does anyone know the item number for this? My local staples won’t even check without an item number

    • Rita

      304177

    • Aim

      Item number 304177

      • heidi

        Thanks πŸ™‚

      • Kelly

        Is this for both models or just one?

  15. RT

    I got one! They had two and asked me if I wanted both, but I decided to give someone else a chance. When I got there a lady was walking out the door with the other one! I called 8 stores and none had any. Then the 8th store told me the first store I called should have two! I called them back and they found them way up in the top of a shelf out of view!

    • Amy

      I just called my last store and thry told me yhe 1st one i called had 2 also!! However when i called the 1st to check again they said no they did not…but they also said they are doing a big re stock now that will not be done till Friday, so keep checking back…we will see!

  16. Danielle

    There are none in the Atlanta area.

    • Autumn

      Where around Atlanta did you check? Thanks πŸ™‚

  17. Janelle

    I was lucky to find 1 in my area Northeast PA, but need another for my twins. I immediately went next store to Best Buy with my receipt to price match. They did everything they could to get out of their price match. After 30 minutes of my time they came up with since it is no longer in stock at Staples (I mistakenly told them I bought the last one), they couldn’t do it. They told me to return it to Staples so it would be in stock and then they migjt match it. I will never shop at Best Buy again!!

    • Janet

      You should go to a different best buy and try there!

      • Janelle

        Unfortunately that was the only Best Buy near me that had one. I am thankful that I got one at Staples.

        • k

          Will Best Buy price match this offer?? THanks!

          • Rita

            No its their policy not to price match on clearance

    • Sam

      illogical. staples’ item was on clearance. bestbuy does not pricematch clerance items

  18. dab

    Same here with the offer to buy one or more from someone! 3to107@gmail.com

  19. heidi

    Has anyone seen them on the website?

  20. Paige

    If anyone has an extra one, please email me, paige51910@gmail.com…I will buy, I have paypal. Ty.

  21. Kendra

    Very disappointed with this one. I had one on hold at our staples went to get it and they sold it to someone else. The manager was very rude and wouldn’t do anything about it. After lying to us multiple times about what happened to it and not doing anything for our troubles I finally asked for cooperates number. My daughters birthday is in two weeks and this was going to be her gift. If someone is willing to ship me one I will pay for it! My email is seesholtzk@gmail.com. I would be so grateful.

    • Kendra

      corporate*

    • Nadya

      Same thing happened to me!! I confirmed 3 times that they are putting the correct one under my name with the right price and everything and when I went to pick it up, the lady gave me the boys version (full price) and when I protested she said oh we don’t have that we must have put the wrong one on hold. I said umm no you definitely put the right one on hold because I has asked the person I talked to to make sure and confirm it and they did. But within an hour they either gave it to someone else or one of the employees took it for themselves. So so disappointed in Staples and their lack of customer service πŸ™

  22. alam

    checked with all the stores in sandiego,CA.but i couldn’t find in any of the stores πŸ™

    • Mrs Q

      @alam- i got the last two in Escondico….

  23. Jess

    Scored one in New Hartford, NY! The store held it for me when I called right after the notice went up on Hip2Save. I was going to pick up another if they still had it, but they sold it before I got there. I’m happy to have found one! Thank you Hip2Save!!!

  24. k

    Are people matching this deal at Best Buy? What is their policy on that?

  25. Mami2four

    I called staples today at 2:37pm. They had 4 on clearance. I asked them to place one in hold for me and they told me that because it’s a clearance item they could not hold. I left my house at 3pm and arrived there at 3:45pm. “They had sold out”. I say this because another lady was also looking for this deal. She to me she had called less than 10 min. Before and they still had 3 available. I got someone from the store to look into it but the she couldn’t find any of them. The other lady was also speaking to am employee asking if maybe they were misplaced in the stored. I got the vibe the employees put them away for themselves because the lady mentioned she had a 4 year old who would really like to have this, and the employee very defensively replied that she too had a 4 year who want this and added that she also had a one year old as well so she really needed this item. I just found the entire ordeal very awkward because no one mentioned having sold a leap pad they just could not be found. I don’t mind missing out on a deal but if the employees put them aside for themselves I never had a chance. I wish they would have lied. At least then I wouldn’t have wasted gas and time.

  26. Leo

    Went to a staples in NJ and the Manager said they Will get them in 2 wks… I was like what!!!

  27. Gen

    Tks Collin, I was able to go and get the only 2 available in the store πŸ™‚

  30. Jessica

    Anyone know how to add these ‘Hot’ post to get the text message? I get the ‘free’ text but not the ‘hot’ ones.

  31. jude

    no luck at any Staples near by. Colin Do you think Walmart will do price match?

  32. Lisa

    Hey guys if you have a toys r us nearby check out the leap frog games, I found the ones from Black Friday that came with a character marked down to $10, minnie, monsters u, and hello kitty. There’s a brown colored sales sticker and so with the bonus % clearance deal the final price is $10, down from $24.99.

  33. Amy

    Did any of my fellow Cincinnati friends find any? I checked in Northern Kentucky with no luck. I have a store on my way to work tomorrow, wondering if i should stop or if others had already? I had zero luck calling places. If anyone finds an extra would love to pay shipping and buy it from someone. I have paypal or can send money order! Ael525@yahoo.com

  34. dab

    None in central California.

    • Rita

  39. Raye

    My deal finder friends and I were able to snag three in Central Florida! Called 9 stores and was lucky to have a friend that lived 60 miles from me. All our kids got summer birthday gifts purchased and ready to go!
    I did call around for other Hip2Save commenters but no luck unfortunately. :/

  40. Jajaira

    If anyone can find one for my daughter that has Autism in Puerto Rico I will be more then grateful to pay the shipping costs on top of the cost itself thanks you can email me at mdvampire2005@yahoo.com

  41. k

    Has anyone been able to price match this deal at another store?

  42. Melina

    I’m pretty sure a lot of these will end up on Ebay for full price. No one is going to sell theirs at the $17.50 price.

  43. Kelly

    Called Mansfield ct who said no store in the local ct, ma, ri area has them in stock according to item number look up. However, clearance isn’t always accurate in the system. Awesome deal but I’m not gonna drive around for three hours in hopes of finding one. πŸ™

  44. Julie

    None in the triad area on NC !

  45. Tamana

    Thanks Miranda! I tried the live chat and the person told me of 2 stores that had them in NJ. The first one only had one and when I called they said that they dont have any. The second store (Hillsborough, NJ) had 2 and when I called the guy put me on hold for almost 15 mins but then he found 1. I asked if he had another and they did not. He put it it on hold for me and my hubby picked it up in the evening! Thanks Dan and Collin!

  46. Desiree

    Thanks for this great deal. I thought I was already late for this but I was able to get 2 here in pa just this morning. I love hip2save! πŸ™‚
