Last week听we听stumbled upon from the folks over at听, which depicts听the top 10 most Googled toys of the holiday season.听

Of course we at Brad's Deals have been hearing these names thrown around since the first holiday toy books dropped in September,听and we saw a lot of amazing prices on some of these items during Black Friday (Black Thursday? Black Wednesday? Who can keep up anymore?) last week. But if you didn't have time to shop during the Black Friday bonanza sales, it's not too late to score these hot holiday toys at prices that won't break the bank.

We scoured the web looking for the best deals听on each of these 10 toys, and made a list of our findings听to make your holiday shopping experience as painless as possible. Of course, a lot of these search terms are just brand names, so听we picked one or two of the season's most听popular toys from each听brand to showcase. If you are听in hot pursuit of听a听toy we didn't mention, let us know in the comments and we'll do our best to help you find it for less!

1. American Girl Dolls

What little girl doesn't love American Girl? I know I was obsessed when I was a kid. These 18" dolls are gorgeous, and they each come with cool clothes, braid-able hair, and a book that's part history lesson, part inspirational girl-power ballad. American Girl is all about teaching girls to be brave, strong and unique, but these dolls don't come cheap. The lowest price I could find was听.

If that's too steep to consider, Walmart, Kmart and Target all have their own knock-off American Girl dolls for a LOT less. These dolls are just as cute, offer more skin tone/hair/eye color varieties than official American Girl dolls,听can fit into American Girl clothing,听accessories and furniture and a few of them even come with books of their own! While older AG fangirls might not be happy with anything but the real deal, younger kids likely won't notice a difference. Here's a side-by-side comparison for skeptics:

Let's play match the doll to the brand! Cant figure it out? Answers (and price tags) below:

2. My Little Pony

Another throwback from听my youth, My Little Pony toys are all the rage this season. We picked two of the brand's most popular dolls to focus on: the anthropomorphic听My Little Pony Equestria Girls听Collection听Rainbow Dash听Doll听and the听My Little Pony Pinkie Pie Pony figure, a more traditional plastic pony doll.

Here are the best prices we could find for these dolls:

听--听$9.74 at Amazon.听While Toys "R" Us is selling this for the same price, there's a shipping fee of $5.99 if you buy it online. The Amazon version ships for free with an Amazon Prime membership, and if you don't already have one, you can sign up for a one-month free trial.
听--听$3.99 at Toys "R" Us.听Even with the $5.98 shipping fee, this is the lowest price for this toy we could find anywhere. Opt for the free in-store pickup option to eliminate shipping costs.

3. Paw Patrol

We decided to focus on the听Paw Patrol Lookout听Play Set, as it was featured in more than one retailer's holiday toy book.

The lowest price we could find on this item was听$39.99, which is what it's going for at most major department and big box stores.听, where shipping is free throughout听the holiday season and you'll get 5听percent off if you use your Target REDcard.

4. LEGO Friends

Way back in September, we polled our readers and came up with our own听list of听, and the听LEGO Friends Olivia's House Play Set听made the cut.

The lowest price we found on this set was听, and this includes FREE shipping!

5. Ouija Board

This spooky party game is making a comeback thanks to the (reportedly听terrible) new movie, Ouija, which is in theaters now. Although the film听probably won't be winning any Oscars, it seems to have inspired kids and grownups alike to snatch up their own Ouija Boards.听Whether you need听to contact spirits from the netherworld or just want to freak out your friends,听you should听. Shipping is free with a $50 order, or you can opt for complimentary in-store pickup.

6. Peppa Pig

We decided to focus on听the听Peppa Pig Peek 'n Surprise Playhouse:
And we found it on sale for听. Opt for in-store pickup to avoid shipping fees.

7. Shopkins

The听Shopkins Supermarket Play Set听is a good starter set for the young shopping enthusiast.

Once again Toys "R" Us is the winner when it comes to pricing:听听when you opt for in-store pickup.

8. NERF听Guns

The two NERF toys that made our top 25 list were the听NERF听Combat Creatures TerraDrone听and theNERF Rebelle Agent Bow Blaster.
The best prices we could find on these items are:

听--听$47.99 at Target. Amazon is selling this for the same price, but with the REDcard discount and the free holiday shipping promotion, Target wins.
听--听$19 at Walmart. Get free shipping with a $50 purchase.

9. Barbie Dream House

Barbie's a busy lady these days. When she听and her friends aren't听at one of their many high-powered jobs or running her popular听听(yes, Barbie has Instagram, you're welcome), they听need a place to kick back, relax and ride a blindingly bright pink elevator. That's where the听Barbie Dream House听comes in:
Get this 3-story mansion for听.

10. Zoomer Dino

Walmart's got the the best price on this robot dinosaur听by $0.11, and shipping is free!听.

Keep in mind that a lot of these low prices are due to听, which will only last until Friday or Saturday! If you find one of these items听somewhere else for less, or need help locating another toy from these brands, let us know in the comments.
