An odd little fascination of mine is to look at the Precious Moments best sellers each week. I like to cheer for the underdog and watch the progress each week. In the case of the best sellers, my favorite little underdog is the To Your Rescue fireman pedal car figurine. I am not quite sure why I cheer for that little guy each week. Perhaps it's his simple innocence as he rides along in his favorite fire truck or perhaps it reminds me of the kids in my family with similar toys.

Last week the little fireman was #6 in the best sellers. This week he fell to #8. He has lost a little ground and, if he wants to crack the top five, he will have some serious competition. See which other figurines and gifts are ahead of the little fireman on our best sellers list.

We simply love our blog readers, Facebook fans, and twitter followers. We think you deserve to see our newest products and have the opportunity to pre-order our new Disney & John Deere, Limited Edition figurines as well as our latest Ornaments, Nativity, and Christmas gifts.

ING DIRECT conducted a holiday spending survey which found that "about half of American adults (54 percent) plan to spend $300 or more on holiday gifts, a striking 10 percent decrease from what Americans last year said they typically spend."

The study goes on to say that consumers will be choosier when it comes to the gifts they buy and how much is spent on each gift. With that in mind, Precious Moments will continue to offer discounts, such as our Disney buy one, get one half off, and deasl on shipping.

Do you intend to be choosier with your holiday budget this year? If so, what sort of deals or discounts would help your budget the most?
