Elmo Live retails for £59.99 but it has been predicted that it will be selling for over £200 on Ebay by Christmas. This is because previous Christmas best sellers have seen this kind of price increase on the Internet auction website.
These predictions have been made with several assumptions. The main assumption being that Elmo Live will be this year’s most wanted gift. Now there is a lot of competition out there so this is by no means a safe bet. The following is a look at some of the toy’s competing with Elmo Live this Christmas.
The Dance With Me Teletubby costs just £40 but does not feature the realistic speach that Elmo Live has. However for £20 less it does have some good movements which are much more impressive than last year’s big toy for toddlers, Iggle Piggle. One of the best features of the Teletubby is that you can play musical statues with it.
The Doctor Who Dalek Voice Changer isn’t aimed at the same age group as Elmo Live, but I could see many of Doctor Who’s target market choosing Elmo over the Voice Changer. The voice changer, if you don’t know, is a mask which when you turn it on and speak through it makes you sound, slightly like a dalek (but not much).
Upsy Daisy and Her Chase ‘n’ Play Bed is quite a strange toy. For some reason Upsy Daisy chases her bed as it moves away from her. It’s an odd toy but at £25 it is cheap enough for parents to purchase as well as Elmo live.
James Bond Scalexrtix is basically a standard Scalextrix set with a couple of cars from James Bond films and a picture of James Bond on the box. It’s not likely to be competing over the same market that Elmo Live will be.
Star Wars Clone Wars Lego puts the latest Star Wars characters and vehicles into Lego form. Sure to be popular as this long running collaboration between Star Wars and Lego has always been in the past.
Even if Elmo Live can manage to fend off these other toys with high expectations, there will still be other obstacles which could prevent Elmo from being a sell out item this year.
Elmo live is an expensive toy for toddlers. More expensive than any toy aimed at this age group in the past. The biggest concern is that this is the worst possible time to release an expensive toy. This is because the financial crisis in the UK has given a lot of parents uncertainty about their future income and therefore encouraged saving rather than spending. Parents are expected to be a little more frugal this Christmas than usual.
Whether Elmo Live sells out this Christmas remains to be seen but at this stage, it looks like Elmo will not quite be receiving the high street battles over stock that was at first expected. If it does sell out, it doesn’t look like it’s going to be another Wii however, and stock should probably cover all orders fairly comfortably as long as consumers place their order a few weeks before the 25th November.
Elmo Live is out now. For advice on where to buy Elmo Live see our website. The site gives prices and more informtation on Elmo Live.
Believe it or not, many people decide that they don’t need a People Magazine subscription, simply because People is online. While it is true that they have one of the more popular sites on the Internet and it certainly can keep you busy to a certain extent, there is something missing from it that is often found in the printed form. What exactly can you get by holding a magazine in your hand that you can’t get by looking at it on the Internet? You might be surprised at the answer.
First of all, only about half of the articles that appear in People Magazine are going to be about celebrities but all of the information that is available on the People Magazine website is celebrity-based. The other half of the articles, which consists mainly of human interest type subjects are only available through a People Magazine Subscription. That is one of the main reasons why it is a good idea to have a subscription to the magazine so that you can see all of the things that they print, not just the ones that are freely available on the Internet.
Secondly, People Magazine subscriptions give you the opportunity to hold the magazine in your hand and enjoy it anywhere that you’re at. Most of us tend to have some down time at least for part of the day and this can be an excellent time for us to enjoy our People Magazine subscription and catch up on the latest. There are plenty of times whenever I enjoy thumbing through a magazine whenever I am relaxing on the couch and the last thing that I would want to be doing is sitting in front of my computer, surfing the Internet. That is one thing that you get from a People Magazine subscription that you absolutely cannot get by viewing it on the Internet.
If you decide that you want a people magazine subscription, you’re much better off having it delivered to your house in this way than picking it up at the store. Most of us tend to buy a People Magazine every week anyway whenever we are at the store in order to catch up on the latest. You can save a considerable amount of money, however, by having it delivered directly to your house. They typically have a month of free issues of the magazine and then you can decide if you want to continue receiving it at home. You are also going to pay a lot less money per issue and typically save almost 50% off of the price that you will be paying at the store.
Even though it’s a good idea to enjoy surfing the website in order to catch up with the latest on most of the celebrities, People Magazine subscriptions are simply too convenient to pass up. Not only that, the next time you pass by the magazine rack in the line at the grocery store, you will be able to pass it by, already knowing exactly what the issue is about.

Talented young UK singer songwriter Steven Hitchens released his debut single ‘Whoops’ on the Internet on November 3rd 2008. In this article you can learn more about Steven and read my review of his single Whoops.
Influenced by 90s stars Madonna, The Spice Girls, Blur and Oasis Steven Hitchens began writing songs at the very young age of 10. Two of those early songs were titled ‘Blue Blueday’ and ‘Extinction is Forever’.
Steven’s performing career began at a holiday village in Bognor Regis working from 9.00 am - 2.00 am organising games and activities for children and performing every night in cabaret shows. It’s even rumoured that he dressed up as Bradley Bear to help entertain the kids whilst his parents happily propped up the bar! He then built up more performing experience as he toured schools in Holland singing jazz and swing covers.
In 2004 Steven moved to London to attend drama school and that’s where many of his songs were written and sigh - where his heart was first broken. Steven still continues acting and hopes eventually that he will play himself in a film about his life when he becomes a mega music best selling recording artist. His acting training and experience should also stand him in good stead for making music videos.
When he left drama school Steven began to focus more on his music and in November 2007 Steven teamed up with singer songwriter Ben Adams and started to record his debut album which is due be released during the spring of 2009. Steven’s debut single ‘Whoops’, was released on the Internet on 3rd November 2008 - just in time for my birthday!
When I heard the title ‘Whoops’ I thought ‘oh no not one of those naff, catchy songs that are usually released in the run up to Christmas’. You know what I mean - the type of song that gets played for years to come at weddings and birthday parties that gets the grandparents up dancing with the kids. But, I promised to listen to and review Whoops so here goes.
My Review
On first listen I was pleasantly surprised. Yes it is one of those catchy songs, but it doesn’t remind me of anything else and has grown on me every time that I’ve listened to it. ‘Whoops’ suggests mistakes and the song is about a guy who cheats on his partner and is caught out and not for the first time. He wants forgiveness from the partner that he loves but you sorta know that it will happen again.
The chorus ‘Whoops did I do it again’ made me think about works Christmas parties and the embarrassing mistakes that happen. Imagine for weeks afterwards your workmates compounding your embarrassment with a rendition of the chorus every time that they see you!
As a debut single I like ‘Whoops ‘. It’s catchiness, upbeat tempo and singalongability score in its favour and especially as we are heading towards Christmas when it could become popular as a party livener. As a dance tune it also scores good in my book. I found myself wanting to dance and if a dance craze attaches itself to this song who knows how well it will do.
Singer Steve Hitchins who comes from Surrey in the UK certainly has the look of a pop star. I’m sure that the girls will love his moody good looks – I know that I do! Whoops is now available from most digital retailers. As Steve will be releasing his first album next year I’m sure that we will hear much more from him in the future.
Competition so far for the Christmas season is Alesha Dixon’s ‘The Boy Does Nothing’. Played back to back with ‘Whoops’ at a club or party – that sounds like a fun time to me.
