Just days after Toys R Us released its 80-page holiday toy book, Walmart is out with its version , a 47-page color insert that will be showing up in many Sunday newspapers next week.

Kmart is also out with its Toy Book for the holiday season.  And while many parents no longer include Kmart on their shopping trips, this flyer is worth looking at, because it has two full pages of coupons. (Don't try to use the coupons from this scan, however.)

The Walmart book does not include coupon pages.

While these flyers do does not list Black Friday deals, or have a store-wide coupon like the Toys R Us book, they contain lists many good toys deals from now until Thanksgiving.

  Walmart's Toyland Wish Book, uses a name that many parents remember from the Sears Wish Books of the 1970s and 1980s.

And the kids will still love it.

Among the best Walmart deals:

     -20 percent off select LEGO sets

     - 20 percent off LeapPad Explorer software

     -LeapPad2 Explorer Tablet for just $99

     -Razor Scooters for $77 (were $89)

     -Lalaloopsy Harmony Interactive Doll for $49 (was $59)

     -CandyLand Board game for $4.88 (was $5.88)

Among the best deals in the Kmart book:

     -Coupons for all of Kmart's Fab 15 toys this year.

     -Air Hogs remote control helicopters on sale.

     -Barbie Holiday dolls for $34 (were $39)

Remember, these are all pre-Black Friday prices, good until the day before Thanksgiving.
